    These comments are dumb. Rockets fans want the Rockets to do well. They don't want to see good players leave the team for nothing. Of course people are going to be upset.

    Now I understand why Dwight Howard tweeted #freepalestine.

    We are still just getting that stupid pick? We are barren. If we don't get another player Dwight is gone.

    For Ariza. I give Morey an F- this off season. This has set us back 2 years at which point we will be trying to talk our stars into staying. I can't see it though. This put us back into the 'also rans'.

    Isn't Alonzo Gee that player mentioned on a non-guaranteed contract that would be waved to create additional space???

    I would give Stephenson the rest of our cap for a two year deal.

    Team option for the second year.

    Same. 99% chance he laughs at us but it can't hurt to acquire his Bird Rights and do the same thing next Free Agency period as we go after Love.

    This. Until it happens, I am completely skeptical of Les and Morey. All they've done is talk about spending money and then not follow through. I sure hope they come through in the end.

    Clutchfans, I advise you to not react so emotionally.

    Quotes will be made a year from now.

    I think gee is non-guaranteed. His $3 mil could get waived.
