    Really sad to see Kmart and JLamb go...both class acts and great teammates. Welcome Harden, Cook, Aldrich and Hayward to Houston!!

    Scary to think of how good Harden can be as time progresses. Hopefully it all pans out.

    I think most just never watched the Rockets.

    They had like two televised games last year so I can't blame them too much.

    But yeah, it's funny that some are thinking Harden is equal to Martin. Harden is better than Martin in every way.

    Harden isn't even that much older than Lamb and still has upside. If only we had Rick Adelman though :(

    Mchale and his Isos....

    Also, if we get Cole Aldrich I'm really happy about that. I still think he can be a backup center in the NBA so he's a nice option to have behind Asik in case Greg Smith fails. (Jones, Patterson, Motiejunas are not 5s imo).

    I love watching rookies develop and I think Lamb has a chance to be very good, but he is tiny an it will be awhile until he can affect games. I hate giving up 1st round picks too, but unless they are top 5 does it really matter? We've seen what you normally get lower than that.

    So, after everyone whines that we gave up too much, you just gotta remember it doesn't really matter because we have too many rookies to give minutes too already. We don't need to draft more any time soon. We've seen how impossible it is to trade for an all-star. So,if you get the chance, you take it and make it work out.

    He's also a much smarter player than MArtin and a better penetrator and passer.
