    You, sir, are out of line. There are many precedents for fans of other teams to post here and with excellent insight to share. We sometimes get too caught up in our homerism to provide the unbiased detachment required to make sound judgments regarding the Rockets' progress -- or lack of it.

    As for me, welcome Bulls N' Bears. Happy posting.

    I thought we had a chance this time, unlike Marc Gasol.

    The Rockets still need a center. What's new.

    Those of you that were mad about the signing are probably still mad.

    If he was proven enough he would cost us $12 mil. No proven Centers are cheap. This needs to get through everybody's heads.

    ohhhhh a moderator on an internet forum says we need asik and that means something to you?

    And I read through that thread... If people aren't saying "let him walk" They're saying "it's not so bad. we can just trade him before the third year."

    If he was offered 3 years 15 million, most Bulls fans would want him back. But that last year is disgusting.

    And I believe at least 1 of them will. We just need to give them the opportunity before trading them away.

    I'd rather have DeAndre Jordan. LOL.
    Face it guys this team we're putting on the court is not going to be successful. At least with DeAndre it'd be fun to watch.

    This is sad I spent my early young teens watching the back to back champions then the rockets trying in late 90's with Barkley, pippen, Yao era etc...and people get excited about signing the Luc Longley of Turkey
    Just blow this up already and Tank... Sad sad it came to this I'm ok making it thru the Astros being horrible again ( late 80's early 90's)

    Averaging 8 rebounds a game would put Asik second on the Rockets behind Camby... which underscores why Asik was needed.

    But, but Bulls N' Bears says no one in Chicago wants the stiff Asik.

    I know, but the poster I quoted mentioned how Asik is a better player than Jordan.
    I'm hoping the Bulls match. Overpaid, overrated.

    Looks like the Rockets didn't overpay enough.
