    Rose is better then AB, Wade is better then Martin and until Yao shows me he is old Yao then Noah is at least his equal.

    Your logic is flawed. How's Rose better than Brooks? Yao can't lose to Noah. Martin isn't that far from Wade. Don't be so pessimistic about your own team!!

    Noahs not better than Yao or his equal even with a slight downgrade in his offense. No they dont have backups behind Wade or Rose. They have Acie Law and his 4 points a game and Devin Brown the journeyman. We have Lowry a starter on other teams and Budinger a sure 10 points game off the bench in his career while he is getting better from his rookie year. I would say Rose is definately not better than having Brooks and Lowry on our team. Id take Brooks and Lowry everyday over just Rose and a nobody behind him.

    If you want me to have Rocket colored glasses okay, AB will shoot much better then Rose, Martin scoring isn't to far off from Wade and I'll ignore Yao coming off a MAJOR surgery thus shouldn't miss a beat.

    If your want me to be a realist then...Rose is a BEAST, Wade vs Martin shouldn't even be an argument and Yao will be limited this season while Noah will be building off a dam good season and will probably be an all-star.

    I LOVE the ROX but I am also a realist.

    Makes a lot of sense. Unless Chicago is ready to part with Noah in a SnT for Bosh; they would then have to find a replacement center since Bosh has made it clear that he does not want to play center.

    We all love our Rockets but I agree with you. Those guys are being homers. :p They got their red :cool: on. Give me Wade and Rose given the opportunity.

    Again even a realist has to look at this and say Brooks and Lowry are better than Rose. He cant win more games than Brooks can in the harder West without Yao or Noah on his team. So Brooks wins more than Rose as the main guy on their teams. He is better with Lowry as his backup than Rose who had Heinrich and now he doesnt any more. So now Brooks and Lowry are even better than Rose by even more now with Acie Law behind him.

    pts.20.8 ast.6 stl0.7 Rose 41 win team with Noah

    pts.19.6 ast.5.3 stl.0.8 Brooks 42 win team without Yao

    Lowry behind Brooks and Nobody behind Rose.


    Thats real. 42 to 41 Brooks got scoreboard in the harder West.

    Id take Wade and Brooks over Rose and Wade. Why? Rose doesnt shoot good and does the same things Wade does which is drive to the basket and dribble penetrate. Two of the same guys doing the same things Brooks and Lowry would compliment Wade much better.

    Yao did come off a MAJOR surgery but he also had time to rest his body.

    I don´t understand reports that are coming out hour by hour

    LBJ will stay in Cleveland, no doubt about that (I know it is not official, but lets imagine it is)

    Wade is probably going back home, and let Miami screwed, and let´s think that Bosh is the last one to make a decision

    Based on reports, he wants to play with LBJ, but he doesn´t want to play in Cleveland, so that option is out

    Second option, he will go to Chicago in a sign and trade to play with Wade, I know Chi doesn´t want to give Noah, but let´s imagine they finally give him up(only chance (supposedly) that Bosh will play with wade, because of the max contract 6y), the question is, WHO IS GOING TO PLAY THE C IN CHICAGO???

    Bosh as said that he doesn´t even think in playing the C, they would have to pick a C in free agency???? Or play Taj Gibson(loool)????

    No matter how many quality guys you have, if you don´t have a solid C, you will lose no matter what, do you imagine what D12, would do to them??? 20 20 every game

    What reports don´t say is that, Bosh list of preferences is:

    1. Playing with Lebron and receive 6 years max contract (via S&T) (will not happen if he stays in Clev)
    2. Playing with Wade and receive 6 years max contract (via S&T) (only if they agree to do S&T giving Noah, and as I stated lacking a C player)
    3. Playing in Houston and receive 6 years max contract (via S&T)
    4. Playing with Lebron/Wade without receiving 6 year max contract

    This is what the Houston Rockets think is true, (not because we are homers, but because it is what makes sense, for the player, given the things he wants and what the future team, where is lands, looks like), but it probably isn´t, because all these reports, and close sources are as accurate as the people that try to predict the weather, and, teams/agents, put out false information, so they get the better out of it, and all the fans that care about the team, are used as tools, to hype the misinformation

    I was exited, for this free agency, now, I can only hope, it is finished, specially these top 10 guys, so after that we can see, Morey go to work, because right now, Morey can´t do nothing, as a matter of fact, no one in the league can´t do nothing, because these guys, are making a Movie out of this, when in fact, most of them already know what they are going to do, and all they want is to do a documentary

    Let me go one further. A 41 team Bulls in the weak East who has Deng, Noah, and Heinrich on the team. The Bulls already got rid of Hienrich. They are worse than a 41 win team already. They might do a sign and trade with Wade not Bosh but Wade to get him a max 6 year contract because now I believe he wants to go there. So they lose Deng or Noah off that 41 win team to get either Wade or Bosh in a sign a trade.

    So they lost Heinrich and Deng or Noah off that 41 win team. Brooks meanwhile? No Yao. He gets Yao back, keeps Lowry, and Adds Bosh to a 42 win team. Maybe even adds a good backup in Patterson and Brad Miller? To a 42 win team in the West before they added all of these guys. Bulls are not close to the Rockets in overall talent. They have the overhyped Rose and Noah and thats it. They have no depth and they are even giving us Miller from that 41 team off their last years team too.

    A realist right? Realistically, this team with AB, YAO and Martin is better than Rose, Noah's and Wades teams. ;)

    If Wade and Bosh both want 6-yr max contract, I dont know how CHI can land them both.

    Im sorry but the Bulls being a better place to win is a joke. I have to expose this ESPN hype joke. They win 41 games. 1 game less than us with Noah and Rose the whole year. We win 42 games in the tougher conference where an above 500 record doesnt get you in the playoffs. We dont have Yao all year. Martin is traded to us and worked into the starting lineup and Landry is lost and we adjust to Hill the rookie from New York getting minutes in his place and Jeffries too. All during the season?

    Bulls lose Hienrich off that team. They lose Brad Miller who by the way is coming to us I believe with 90% certainty. They may gain Wade? They will still be worse than us when we get back Yao alone. Not to mention after all of their losses like Miller and Heinrich to that weak team? They still had Noah the whole time and couldnt win more than The Rockets with Noah, Rose, Miller, and Heinrich on that team. With Wade? They are top 3 but probably not ahead of Orlando still, Boston, or Cleveland if Lebron goes back. We are? Top 3 with Yao probaly back. With Bosh since everyone is already giving them Wade? We are probably fighting the Lakers for the number one seed in the West.

    Bosh definitely wants to play with Wade. The question is where?
