    Are we really going to sign him to a big deal when the time comes? Is Scola going to be the Boozer of the Rockets? What happens if we sign Bosh? Do we just let Landry walk? I'm sure that he will want a starting position some time in the near future.

    This is no longer the 80's and early 90's where there were 6th man specialists. Players want starter money and starter prestige.

    Landry is better than Milsap. Milsap wishes he was as good as Landry.

    Thats a decision Morey will have to make this summer. Resign Scola at a fair price for him since we've had him for a bargain his first 3 years, or give the reigns to the power forward position to Landry? Its a hard decision for sure, I'm not sure which way I would lean toward yet. Definitely something to look forward to.

    If we found out later in the year that we won't make it to the playoffs, Scola should tank so he can keep his value the same :grin:

    I would have laughed at you if you said this LAST YEAR.. Now I think you're on to something..

    I think that's the best and worst thing about rockets fans we tend to fall in love with our players.. I love Scolandry but if we substitute Bosh in for Landry or Luis we still become better as a team.. and we get to make up better nicknames for our PF tandem!

    Last year everyone was saying how milsap was soo much better. I wonder what the story next year will be?

    I wouldn't give landry 10 mil a year which is what he is looking at.

    Landry has shows signs that he's the player but only if he can maintain his prowness throughout the season. The sample size is not big enough to make it definite. Nevertheless i have always like Landry more than Millsap anyway just because he bleeds red while Millsap bleeds j*zz.

    The only thing Milsap has on Landry is rebounding

    I'll stop watching the Rockets if we made the mistake of signing Bosh.

    I would pull the trigger if the Raptors are dumb enough to accept
    Scola/Cook for Bosh.

    And only if Bosh understands his role as one of the rockets 3 head monsters.

    I don' think we should sign Bosh, we should sign our 2 forwards, and look for great shooting guard, since Mcgrady is 150% not a rocket next year...

    Bosh will demand the best player on your team type money and Bosh will never win a championship if he's the best player on a team.

    I just hope rockets don't overpay for anybody this roster, that way in the future we may be able to make a offer for a real franchise-type player.
