    He was a decent player last year. Nothing indicates he'll be a game changer or is getting better/younger.

    He'd help us simply because we're so thin at C. But I wouldn't lose any sleep if we didn't sign him. Move on

    This is the NBA dish not the GARM. I am pretty sure we are losing sleep because San Antonio keeps getting better.

    He'd be an excellent addition for the Spurs. If their big three stays healthy, I think the Spurs have just as good a chance as the Lakers at getting to the Finals.

    Is this some sort of nightmare? Are we really getting stomped on this badly while the Spurs seemingly make a move each week to make them better? The Ponies too? UGHHHHHHH!!!!! :mad: :mad: :mad:

    Putting all your chips for the 2010 Summer FA market is a gamble that may work but don't fell bad if it doesn't. I just don't see the Rockets landing a big name FA. Maybe Bosh but he is a Dallas product. I just hope it all works out.

    Rockets just need to tear it down at this point - short term contention is completely out of the question, IMO.

    I think Orlando took a step back this off-season.

    That's definitely possible, but that will have to show on the court before I say that they've taken a step backwards by swapping Hedo Turkoglu for Vince Carter.

    They didn't lose a big player and not replace him with comparable talent. Whether Vince in Orlando actually works out is a completely different story to be played out over the season.

    p.s. I'm not saying Vince is as good as Hedo. I'm just saying the talent level is comparable at the very least.

    Makes sense for McDyess to come to San Antonio.

    Just take I-10, and he'll be in Houston pretty quick. (depending on what part of Houston he lives)

    What?

    He almost averaged a double double. In fact, it was 9.6/9.8, so if you rounded, it is a double double.
