    I honestly don't understand how people are so upset.

    Ariza makes the Rockets much better defensively.

    Daniels is effectively our Patty Mills down the line.

    I see him as a JJ Redick type that will be great catching and shooting while coming off of screens.

    So he's good at waving a towel and going ape**** when we make a big play?

    A decent coach would make us much better defensively. Parsons & Ariza would make us much better defensively. Asik would make us much better defensively. That's why people are upset. Not all that hard to understand. Cap space, TE, MLE, flexibility, McHale, future picks - those things aren't making us better on defense next year. Thus, people are mad.

    I love that we're bringing Troy back, but we need to make better use of him when he's on the floor. Dude was shooting lights out in the playoffs, but wasn't getting off nearly enough shots. Having him sit in the corner is not gonna cut it, we need to get him more involved.

    He had only been on the big team for a few weeks. I think he showed something in that playoff series. So with a training camp hopefully he can get more floor time and put up those 3s. Gotta improve his D though....

    If only we could run Mchale off some screens.
    I would set a hard pick for Mchale so that he could Go BACKDOOR

    Has "next year" started yet? Let's just see who ends up on our roster and then we judge.

    This. Looks much better than Canaan in the summer league. Cov and Canaan look so lost.

    That PF depth is awful. I pray that is what is next. I like TJones potential. What scares me is still rolling with him starting in the playoffs. Think i'm still suffering from Lamarcus shell-shock.

    Wish we could absorb Hayes into our cap space (or TE) just for that reason.
