Trade: Bonzi, James for Bobby Jackson? (UPDATE: Done Deal)

Les gave up millions off the books to make some of those offseason acquisitions happen. I guess this is just balancing it out.

 

This trade reminds me a lot of the 04 move when we traded Jimmy Jackson for David Wesley. I was a bit surprised when we traded Jjax for Wesley but it turned out pretty good.

I really hope we can somehow land Mike Miller or Artest though.

 

Wait... i think we forgot about Snyder.

 

I still can't believe this trade...

Please tell me I am just having a nightmare... WTF

 

At the end of the day,all of our stress and worry for us to be a better team is useless because at the end it's a business and business comes before anything else.

 

I didn't check the box score tonight, but when I was watching the Mavs @ Hornets game, Bo Jax hit 4 three pointers. He had 14+ points for the night. His shot still looked sweet like back in Sac-Town, but this was one of the only games I have seen of him lately so its not the greatest indicator of how he is doing.

 

The Shock is subsiding.

But this trade by itself is tough to take as a Rocket fan.

 

Why Bonzi? we need Bonzi! Good trade for Hornets,

 

I think the point is that many are viewing this - correctly - as a salary dump. And salary dump = evil owner.

That said, I think they're grossly overestimating the negative impact of losing Wells while gaining BJax.

 

And then management is going to come out and try to spin the deal like it makes the rockets better......

Is Jackson really 35? dang

 

Didn't we get Snyder from Utah though?

 

Difference:

David Wesley was quite healthy at least.

 

hope ROX can be much better from the trade...

 

Carl Herrera, how long is it going to take you to start a thread with B.J. and Head in the title? I'm just curious.

 

So, are you saying Bobby Jackson will replace Wesley as Steve Francis' secret gay lover on this team??

 

Thats actually a really good comparison, didn't think of that.

At the time of the trade...

David Wesley 6'1 - 35 y/o 38% FG 35% 3PT

Bobby Jackson 6'1 - 35 y/o 39% FG 36% 3PT

 

Watching the Archieved game of the Memphis game against the Clippers. Miller did not play because of a bad back . The announcers said that the Grizz will not trade Miller as quoted by a Grizz insider. I still tried the Trade Machine and this is what I came up with if the Rockets intend of getting Miller.

my head is hurtin with this Bobby Jackson trade....


Wells was our X factor come playoffs time...aghhhh

 

well, i think tinman will be happy. BJ kinda looks like mad max and has a crazy ass shot like he did too.

 

I am totally PISSED OFF!

This is one of the worst deals ever!!! Bonzi and James for a 35 years old undersized guard?!!!!

What was the GM thinking about!!!!
