    And let him play point?
    We have one of the youngest teams in the NBA and even though he burned us when he was a Nugget, that team still dropped him. That's how big a poison he is. He isn't an investment, more like a means to the playoffs. On a veteran team like the Lakers, that's possible, but we have so many talented rookies and Kenny Thomas is far from maxing out his potential. Yes, Kenny Thomas...

    If you want to teach Eddie Griffin the wrong way, have Glen Rice's wife call up the Chronicle with her thought of the moment, and blow up the team for next year, picking up Rider seams like a good pickup to win against the Bulls...

    Cmon, nobody wants that crackhead Rider. He is a proven cancer.

    FYI guys, Rider did NOT get cut from Denver for being a cancer... The reason he was cut was because the other SG's on the Nugz had guaranteed contracts.


    Rider is not what we need.

    Brian Skinner and Bimbo Coles? That would help us wouldn't it? We can send them Walt.

    nice sig Baqui.

    Rider is something special. I just don't think you understand what kind of idiot he is. He threatens sportswriters.

    :D And i think they get Nick, because "him and Steve are buds". And 'buds' are thicker than contracts and dollars.

    Signing Rodman and Rider would guarantee the playoffs.

    Francis
    Mobley
    Rider
    Rodman
    Willis

    drool...

    That is a team I could like...

    I say sign Rider for a month, deal with his "cancerous" behavior then cut his ass once Steve gets back. His points alone would keep the Rockets at .500 until Steve gets back.

    Rider is a loser and a cancer. He's bad news. Even the Lakers managed to struggle when they had him on the team. Once they stashed him on the injured list they went 15-1. Hes Not a team player, Rider sucks, I'd rather give minutes to develop Tierre and Oscar over getting Rider anyday. We lose but at least we lose with integrity now, we'd be a losing circus with Rider
