    murder! retrace his steps in the last 48 days. I want to know how the hell everyone is getting injured. I have a couple of suspects in mind.

    I wouldn't say that. I'd say the miller acquisition looks even more horrible now.

    It pretty much means that players are not likely to want to come play for the Rockets unless they see it as a career advancement move (more money, playtime, location), not because they admire the team or where it's going towards a championship. I think the Rockets style of management is starting to rub the players wrong.

    Rick probably let it be known he wasn't happy with the constant change with the roster.

    My guess is that Miller saw all season how things weren't running so smoothly between Adelman and the FO (and given how close they are, Adelman may have said some things privately to Miller), so he wasn't taken by surprise when Adelman and the Rockets chose to part ways.

    I know Miller took a little less money in order to play for Adelman in Houston, so I wonder how he feels now.

    I think hes taking a jab at management/FO but again, I might be reading into things too much.:p

    Edit: Makes sense PmC

    Oh well. Nice knowing you Brad! Thanks for your 1 year of service. Maybe you can take your talents to the retirement home with Rick.:)

    So he can stink it up on the court again? Hell no. While I do wish the best for his health I just hope he retires.

    BUYOUT - then we can have more cap room to sign Gasol.

    Ha Ha, imagine that - we get Gasol and Thabeet gets screwed AGAIN.

    Brad's surgery turned Thabeet into a competent player at the same time?

    Fantastic news!!

    now his expiring contract, insurance covered, is just gonna look much more enticing to opposing teams!

    I didn't know losing the cartliage in your knee was infectious. Better keep him away from the rest of the team.
