    Don't know if anyone heard this or has posted it yet but 610 has reported that Rice to Houston is a done deal. They're simply waiting for league approval.

    WOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!


    it's all a matter of risk, reward baby!


    we risked shandn to gain glen rice!


    a guy who can't shoot on a team that MUST have shooters for a guy in a relatively short deal that specializes in shooting & posting!!!


    WOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!


    MY OFFSEASON FANTASIES ARE COMING TRUUUUUUEEEEE!!


    and to think...we're not even done yet!

    Well, I think we're gonna be better next year, but two years from now, that salary may not look pretty. Screw it, let's win now. :)

    Besides, this guy practically owns Scottie, so we'll know we can get 30 ppg from the 3 spot against Portland.

    screw it, is right.

    Francis and Mobley need a consistent shooting-sidekick to go to the next step.

    To me, this is developing the future by giving Francis and Mobley the confidence to know that a shooter is always open. This opens the door to their power!!!

    The defense will come around in time as Griffin matures. screw it!

    If this is true, who will wear #41. I believe that is Rice's number and also the number EG has selected in memory of his brother.

    For the record: I don't know if this is a good deal or not, but I support anyone in the Rockets jersey. Rockets 4-life!

    Hey Glen Rice essentially for Shandon and Matt Bullard, I can honestly say I am happy with that deal. Now we are definitely gonna be a hard team to guard. This isn't likely the end of the overhaul either, and now if we can only get Jahidi. Mama mia!

    For the first time since the Griffin Trade, I am actually excited about next season! I have wanted Rice ever since that proposed Pippen/Rice/Horry trade fell through. Go Rice! Go Rockets! Playoffs 2002!

    That's cool....but you lost a bet. The game is over. Change your moniker. Quit posting as HOOP-T you loser ;)

    seriously man, it isn't cool.
