IJS Morey has done his job and made this season exciting, I still think we should tank to get something that resembles a front court.
Ahhh finally some assets merging into a star. Thanks Morey, you need to pull the trigger more often. Who cares about picks!!? We've been having them for years and I don't remember not one of them turned into someone 'good'. I mean really good. Not like we kid ourselves, "he's the talent, he just need playing time". I just wanna say, hell ****ing yeah!
Thing is, we still can....perhaps....swing a deal with some combination of our eight PFs for....well, for that second star (Lin notwithstanding).
can someone enlighten me on what the bobcats pick looks like?what other picks we had. i agree with your post btw.
Lin / ?? Harden / Delfino / Cook Parsons / Morris Patterson / DMo / Jones / White Asik / Aldrich That's a team stuffed with young talent that can make the playoffs NOW. Very excited about this move.
Rockets lost some scoring, but gained more on defense. That was my biggest concern - having a good defensive player at the SG position. It's up to everyone now to make up for Martin's lost scoring.
I like the trade, but I don't love it. I don't think that James is much better than Kevin at the moment, but it's good long term and it gets us a respectable backup center.
This is very much a surprise move by the Rockets. I wonder who gets cut now or will there be another trade in the works?
He's a beast. Anyone think Morey was desperate? I really can't argue with this trade, it was bold, gotta take some chances.
Goal isn't to be a playoff contender. Goal is to build a championship contender. You need multiple stars for that. We finally got one. Now time to keep dealing and wheeling for another.
