    I think we need a forward vs a C .regardelss we prolly take the best overall player we can get (outside of the guard position) .

    Jeff green could be interesting
    James Johnson is a pipe dream

    And more when he gave up on his team that HE choose. I have a bad feeling if we wait for him again he will do the same thing

    Matt Barnes & Bogut, calling it

    Matt Barnes is the prefect fit, can get hot on 3pts, good defender for a wing, can send out to whack opponent's superstar and even taking a technical with no setback for the team.
    Bogut is good defender for a big, give us option to go big when needed, and also can send out to whack people when needed.

    Sanders and Barnes for me. Then in the summer sign GP2 and we're good to go.

    Bogut has disappointed on the Mavs, and tbh there's no reason for him to play horrible like that if he played better maybe Mavs wouldn't have been the worst team in the L at one point. Lou Williams is in the same boat and unlike Mavs Lakers wanted to tank, yet he still brought his A game every play. Getting would disappoint me because if you just base it on his performance Bogut sucked. Might as well have traded for Asik if we're gonna get a pouting diva on the team.

    Wasn't everyone raising a fuss about how Dwight quit on the team last year? Well if you feel that way why bring in yet another quitter on the squad?

    Rockets need height, defense and players who don't necessarily need the ball to be effective.

    Larry Sanders and Raphiael Putney. Or just sign Smoove and Lance Stephenson as break glass end of bench guys.

    I gotta think it's still

    Bogut or Sanders obviously, but no to Barnes please. As much as I despise Bogut, Barnes is worse.

    If we sign that douche I will be incredibly disappointed in the Rockets Front Office. Will never be a fan of someone like that.

    Barnes would be Cisco Part II. Veteran wings that kind of have that bad boy mentality. Not afraid to mix it up and pick up the occasional technical.

    Man,Barnes gets a bad rep honestly. I love his story, he has a chip ad forever will have one. He fights for his team and thats whats important having two bulldogs on this team will be good, they wont back down in the playoffs thats for sure.
