He said he would do this a long time ago, he's a man of his word. I don't think he's even chasing rings right now, this man is genuinely committed to his teams. A class act. He will be an important part of any championship run.
If we get Brewer, Garcia will have to play the 2. I guess it doesn't really matter, they'll all be playing the wing positions. The positions also depend on who they're matched up against.
This is big! He is a great two way player that perfectly fits our team - he could back up Harden and Parsons and he signs for the vet minimum, leaving us the room exception to add another rotational piece. Our bench right now: Beverly Garcia Jones Moti (assuming Asik starts...) Smith Not bad... Not bad at all. Now if we could move Asik for Smith and add another quality role player via free agency, we have one if the best rosters of the league...
BTW, he's listed as a SG. http://espn.go.com/nba/player/_/id/2755/francisco-garcia Not that it matters. He's similar in size to KMart. Shot 36% from the 3 last year, but 45% in the playoffs. For the vet min., totally worth it. Plus he's a good locker room guy.
Salary cap situation is going to be irrelevant with two max contracts on the team and bird rights to our key players and you're going to want to stay over the cap anyway to be able to use that MLE and Bi-Annual exception.
Got Dwight and Garcia, moved out unwanted assets like TRob and Royce White....and we still have the flexibility to trade or keep Asik? This is just unbelievable. Morey you dog.
LOL I dont' think we need a four at this point, D MO's been beasting according to the Rox coaching staff. +Parsons and Garcia can play the 4 if needed.
Checked Kevin Durant during the playoffs without punking out like someone else did against Westbrook. Guy is nails, this offseason has been spectacular
Some people still hate the 2patt trade for Robinson and Garcia. Garcia for 2pat would of made me happy, not at the time but after seeing Garcia play its obvious morey was after Garcia all along. Greatest. Gm. ever.
I've heard that we have a commitment from Dwight Howard and I've heard we locked up Garcia. The one I feel most comfortable with and think will produce a legit leader for Houston is the Garcia acquisition.
Sounds like a plan. We're damned lucky he wants to play here enough to accept such a contract. He wants to be a part of what we're building here.
