    it's not about the monney, i belive that he will resign for much less than he can get in a lottery team, if he will feel comfortable here.

    he wanted to play in Houston for a long time, and now that he is here he's happy.

    he could have signed This offseason for x 3 in Europe if he wanted.

    They might not be as talented but Casspi and Garcia played their hearts out everytime they got on the floor. Our bench can be 3rd best starting team in Leastern Conference no joking.

    Then let's see what his agent Dan Fegan will try to get for him.

    He seems to be moving much better and is more aggressive than in previous years.
    During his time in Sacramento he was a non moving SF 3point shooter, which really killed his game since he was waiting on the weakside for someone to kick the ball out which seldom happened.

    I also think he matured much more as a player and is more effective on the defensive end and a better team player since he recognized that there are far better players on the team and his only way to play a significant role is if he plays for the team.

    If he continues like this he will have a solid NBA career.
    I like his game...he energizes the team.

    Wait to see after he gets some playoff experience. I don't like him camping at the 3-point line. He should get more involved.

    Amazingly, yet again, against the Jazz, while Omri Casspi in the game(30M),
    The rockets may have bag just another easy W,
    With a very fair margin of +9.

    While without him, the team lose -20, -18, -13, -10(relatively).

    And do you know who is the player with the better yearly points differential
    Just after Omri Casspi, in the Rockets...?!
    Yep, Chandler Parsons.

    So what a wise people would have learn of that?
    They would learn, that while the Houston Rockets,
    It's a very beautiful ship, as it holds the longest beard in the NBA
    and even holds, the strongest muscles in the NBA, which is great.
    But, without it Captain, it's just another ghost ship, that would get nowhere good...
    The Titanic !

    So the +/- points differential numbers,
    since the very beginning of the playing year teach us...
    That without Omri Casspi and not so far behind, Chandler Parsons,
    The Houston Rockets, it's a very nice ship,
    But with not enough game intelligence,
    With no Captains to lead it in a troubled water.

    While with Omri Casspi and Parsons to activate it...
    That same ship, by numerical means, is a contender.

    Therefore, couch, Kevin McHale,
    should have make, The right accommodations.


    Take Care!

    This looks like this came straight from google translate. Very difficult to understand.

    Still, the main point is an interesting one. Even tonight, with an abysmal 5 turnovers, Casspi leads the team again in +/- while playing 30+ minutes.
    At about a quarter of the season, it's getting difficult to dismiss as a small sample size phenomenon.

    Although Casspi has played okay, not great, it can't be explained by his individual play. So what is it? Team D, spacing or more passing/movement on O?

    he brings energy and hustle.

    Dwight and harden had 5 turnovers also
    the rockets needs to fix that quick.(usually casspi don't turn the ball so much).

    I think that he played good, he is shooting efficiently in the last couple of games, and scoring in double digits.

    today he shot 6-13 fg 2-3 from 3 with 7 rebounds(3 on offence).

    It's not fair to judge him until he get some playoff experience. Harden, and Howard have finals experience and Parsons has playoff experience. I think playoff experience makes players better.
