    That's a good post…and like Ive said, there is a chance LMA could come to Houston…

    But, looking through unbiased goggles, there is no reason to turn down SA or LAL. Both of those situations make more sense for him, personally, than Houston.

    SA has championship pedigree…LAL will be a monster team in two season, huge market, Laker name, and home town.

    Nash is well liked and respected around the league. Lakers treated him well.
    He will try to help.

    I will just flip over to pg mode and stay there. If the Spurs get LMA have fun with him. Hope we have good battles next year.

    Please tell me why I am wrong. I guess I need some understanding on how to build a team.

    Because you can't just get rid of players whenever you want to free up cap space. It doesn't work like that. Otherwise, every team would do that to get whatever players they want.

    Ok, I admit that leaving Bev out was bad. From the list of Terry, priginoni, Brewer, DMO, Ariza. There are only three that I value high that is Brewer, DMO, and Ariza. They should not keep anyone from getting a star talent.

    Pop recently said he intends to continue coaching. His statement about quitting with Duncan was a LONG time ago. All indications are he changed his mind. Why not? He's probably driven by competition and knows he has Leonard on board and a great GM working with him with a great organization. He'll be in intention for a ring every other year (bc that's what the Spurs seems to do).

    Did you just copy from the Spurs fan. I literally just read that 10 to 15 minutes ago.

    Ariza is the heart and soul of the Rockets defense. No Ariza and the Rockets slip on defense from 6th in the league to the mid teens. Capela is basically potential. Easily sacrificed because for years D-Mo will be a better backup to Howard than Capela. D-Mo, because of his performance and potential is likely to be a max or near max player in the summer of 2016. He is just that good. A seven foot paint protecting, low post savant who is absolutely deadly from beyond the arc. There is a very good possibility that in 2-3 years he will be better than LMA. LMA is on the wrong side of 30 soon, and unless a player has been sipping from TD's fountain of youth the falloff in their performance is dramatic.

    Hope this helps.

    With all do respect mmottola26, I appreciate that you're very interested in what goes on with our Rockets, but do you really have to post soo much? :confused: I've never had to put anyone on my ignore list until I read so many of your post on this thread. And that didn't even help because of your post being quoted. And 95% of the time, it's not for a good reason.

    Sorry in advance if this is out of line. Maybe I've had a long day lol
