    Eric Pikeowski never played around a team like this with a True Center. Im thinking guys Pike might be a pretty hot spot on the Rockets roster this season. Lets be patient with the trade stuff. I think the Rockets made a Major Impact move with Rice, lets not forget how good a player Rice was and is. His team was young last year and he was hit with Injuries with the Rockets. The Guy dont make 9mil for nothing.? Geez... The rockets have a pretty sharpe team with Ming-Franics-JVG-Ewing. Lets not get so happy? LoL.

    The random capitalization is eerily reminiscent of Yetti...

    I smell a conspiracy in the brewing.

    He didn't use multiple exclamation points like Yetti did.

    I can't say I have ever criticallly watched Pike play, but I think he is going to be great. One of the things the Rockets said about him just after the trade was that he is an excellent entry passer to the post. Thta is super valuable to us. Additionally, I hear he can shoot from outside. Pure gravy.

    Pike is a one dimensional hall of famer in all time NBA 3 point field goal percentage.:D

    Pike wasn't exactly a scrub(though that term is tossed about frequently on this bbs...) when he was with the Clippers... Playing for the Rockets won't do much to help out his defense, which is his greatest weakness.

    Pike was already a good role-player. Now he'll be a good role-player on a (hopefully) good team.
