    My biggest problem is the Moochie contract. Damon Jones and Brown bring the same attributes to the table as Moochie.

    What was wrong with giving Hakeem the money reserved for Moochie? We don't have Hakeem on our team, but the team got older with Rice and Willis.

    No one won in this silly affair. The Rockets still tied up the salary cap with Rice's, Moochie and Motay's contracts.

    I've always had a problem with the way Houston fans bash players that have given blood, sweat, tears and championships for the franchise, but readily embrace the newcomers (Barkley, Moochie, Motay).

    We easily forgive Motay for being outrebounded by guards. We reward Moochie for massaging the ball. Barkley got us pass Seattle so we can forgive him for destroying team chemistry and making Hakeem second fiddle.

    However, we cannot forgive Hakeem for simply getting old. I saw a post saying we are better off with Willis than Dream. Well be prepared for the next two years of seeing these ball hogging guard dribble and dribble and jack up ill advised shots.

    I can understand passing the torch, I can understand its Steve's team. I don't understand a pecking order of Steve, Cat, Moochie, Motay and then Hakeem
