How many players in the Rockets rosters can be labeled as highly respectable guy in the league? Didn’t you know we are the most hated team in the NBA?
All these whiners seem to forget that when they formed the Big 3 in Miami and all the old vets wanted to sign there to win a championship, it was deemed so unfair. Now that we have the chance, it's because Morey is inept, or Tilman is cheap.
I think the Deke comparison in H-Town to Tyson Chandler is apt at this phase of his career. TC is old but has taken good care of himself and can do the things we need most on the 2nd unit--rebounding and rim protection. I'm all for this one.
Would y’all rather have Joakim Noah? I think Noah would do a whole lot better on switches, Chandler is very stiff with incredibly poor lateral quickness at his age.
Yea, he would actually be a better option. Noah is not bad, energy, rebounding, can still defend, and also a good passer.
I can’t remember which game last season where he started he had a game wining block and tons of rebounds.
Feigen: Q: When do you think we sign maybe Chandler or trade for Iggy? If we don't do any of those moves what moves do you see us making? A: I cannot guess when, but Tyson Chandler does want to play one more season and fits what the Rockets would want in a backup center, assuming he has enough left to defend effectively. He played with Chris Paul in New Orleans and for Mike D'Antoni in New York. He would give the second unit the kind of vertical threat Paul has wanted. He is great in a locker room. That would make a lot of sense. After that, it is about trades, as with the Rockets' interest in Andre Iguodala. Trades can happen at any time. The Grizzlies have no need to rush.
