    No, second, and that's not even close..... The Scottie Pippen signing was gigantic, he's one of the 3 best SF's of all time. Howard, maybe a top 15 center.....

    Clyde brought us a back to back championship. So, no. Barkely was HUGE back when it happened as was the Pippen trade.

    Might have to be a question we answer in a few years (and then we say yes because we win a few chips?!)!!

    Clyde was a trade. Even if he didn't want to come to Houston he had to.

    Pippen was bigger, so was TMac.

    Both of those were trades. As far as straight up choosing us over the rest there's none bigger.

    Seems that some of you don't know the difference between a FA signing and a trade.

    I remember being more excited about getting Tmac. He won his second scoring championship when we got him

    Wasn't old enough to comprehend it, but the Barkley or Pippen signings had to be slightly bigger

    Sorry. I keep looking at the thread title and I still don't see "Trade vs. FA". My bad.

    Clyde still wins until we win it all next year.

    Straight-up signing? There's no question.

    Gets a bit murkier if you toss via trade into the equation though. Barkley? Drexler? T-mac? Gonna have to wait and see how it all plays out before that one can be answered.
