As all you, i have been going back and fourth on who would compliment our up and coming Houston Rockets Squad. I've really checking out J Smooth and i really think he would be a perfect fit. He does want close to a max deal. Does he deserve it? Should we take a chance on him being the missing peace to get us to the elite level ? He is a beast when executing pick n roll and pick n pop He can put the ball on the floor and penetrate He can shoot the 3 if needed which can open up the paint for Harden and Lin He has a descent post game We all know he is a defenses nightmare on the fast break! His defense and blocking ability will implement what we are currently lacking I have attached a game that seems to showcase all the above points pretty well when they were playing the Thunder. <iframe width="640" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/fSQxnw50wAk?feature=player_detailpage" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
I'm confident Morey's smart enough not to throw away the Rocket's flexibility and future on Josh Smith unless he knows he has another star coming in along with him.
I am ok with JSmoove for $40M/3 or Millsap, $30M/3. Both contracts are easily tradable if not working out.

Im fairly sure there are many other threads that this is being discussed in....how bout actually looking for a thread to put your thoughts in instead of your first instinct of starting yet ANOTHER thread about Josh Smith. I'll let you decide which of those threads to re-post this in.
