    Here are some things to look at.

    Ford vs Rafer:

    Career Min 29 vs 28 (negligable)
    Career FG% 42.4 vs 38.7
    Career 3pt% 30.8 vs 35.7
    Career FT% 80.6 vs 72.3
    Career asst 6.9 vs 4.9
    Career TO 2.8 vs 1.8
    Career ast/to 2.46 vs 2.72
    Age 25 vs 32

    Key points:

    - Size difference is not important. Rafer doesn't use his size to his advantage on offense or defese. However, it can be argued that TJ uses it to his advantage when penetrating and when getting steals.

    - Ford's FG%, FT% and asst/to ratio have gone up in each of his last 3 seasons, which is great considering his age.


    I would love to have TJ Ford and Bobby Jackson as my PG duo. Jackson excels where TJ doesn't - strong defender, good 3-pt shooter.

    I say just sneak into CP3's house and kidnap him....

    Meh, I really don't think Houston needs/wants a TJ Ford. I will trust Morey to find/get/steal the best PG and backup center for the Rockets possible.
