As hated as they are on this board... Wouldn't the pair make the Rox serious contenders the moment they join Francis & Ming on court? Two players who are desperate for a championship ring and could come cheap for Houston if they can be persuaded. No one on the Rockets roster plays as intensely as Malone and well Stockton's assists stats speaks for itself.
No!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It would be ironic if Malone and Stock got their rings in Houston.
Sorry, I'd rather not see that. Malone I respect in some ways but I don't like his style of play. He hurts people. Dave.
Not just no.....but HELL NO! I would have to become a Mavs fan(shudders)... besides, sacrificing the long term for the short term...no thanks.
I would rather the Rox never win another championship, then to even see a single game in which those two homo's are in Rockets uni's. Please close this thread on basic principal.
If Malone and Stockton were going to split the middle class exception to go to a contender, you would think they would go to the Lakers, which could use help at the 1 and the 4, and already has the best two players in the game.
Why would Luke Skywalker and Han Solo ever ask Darth Vadar and the Emperor to fight on the same side??
You gotta have some pride bro, what the heck is the point of rooting for your favortie team or even having the Rockets wear different uniforms than the Jazz if you even think about this kind of thing. Have you no idea how much Malone and Stockton are uh "disliked" by Rockets fans? Victory would be much better if the Rox developed their own players with their own signature moves instead of bringing in a mercenary.
Duncan??? I respect Karl his skill but not his character. No 260lb PF should have to flop. I understand a physically overmatched Stockton does it, but Karla has no right.
