There are some guys though that are all-star talent. Odd that he hasn't been. Definitely should have gone a year or two. Any ways hope we sign him so he can get here in time for Memphis.
$2 million for one year. There is literally ZERO reason to not like this deal. If it works out, then this team just bolstered it's starting lineup with Smith AND it's bench with D-Mo. If it doesn't work out, then they just wasted $2 million this year... Big deal.
Yeah, Mavs fans, after wanting him so bad, now say he's a bad addition and the Rockets will lose lots of games.
-got Corey Brewer -Atlanta blowout with Mavs -Sixers beatdown Heat -just aquired Smoove Damn this has been the greatest week of my life!
Oh,the ESPN boards are particularly snarky. No surprise. The IQ % there is about the same as the average direct mail campaign response rate.
Josh Smith and Howard to throw lobs too. Harden is going to have a field day with this lineup. The Rockets were so thin before, that heavy minutes were being played. There is no excuse why Harden/Howard should play over 35 minutes a night.
And if this pickup tells you one thing! Jones or D-Mo are getting traded. The Rockets are praying that Jones gets back healthy and will showcase himself for a perimeter scorer to come off the bench. D-Mo is a great backup center.

It would not make much sense to trade DMo if Jones is going to be out for the year. Who will play back up PF? I'm not comfortable with Papanikolau guarding most teams in the West at the PF spot. Alternatively, why would we trade Jones if we're unlikely to re-sign Smith after the year is up? I say unlikely because he will likely demand more $ than Morey is willing to spend on him.
