    We don't need anymore guards. Sign a power forward and center.

    Yep we need a non p***y big who will grab rebounds like they are p*****s and defend the damn paint like he is defending his girl.

    looking at the list of available free agents...what happened to Tony Wroten? he looked like he had potential...I always got a young Lowry bowling ball to the hoop vibe. Then seemingly just disappeared into obscurity.

    Seems like those knee injuries had really a huge (and bad) impact on his career...

    Who's the best rebounder FA right now other than Sanders?

    Thinking we should wait until May and see what players the Euroleague yields up. There are some interesting pending free agents as well as guys that may have a buyout clause we can help them with.

    J.J. Hickson finished his CBA season a week ago. He was known for his rebounding...somewhat of a stat padder, though.

    Seems like the things we really need takes forever to get done. I guess it will take Deandre and Blake both getting 30 rebounds and points each with us getting beat in embarrassing fashion for someone else to be signed.

    The Rockets are who they are. They were designed to be this way and signing some free agent off the street isn't going to change that.

    Casspi is probably the best talent on the board
