    Rajon Rondo might be a net negative player on offense. Look how poor Boston did on that end for years, and that's with 3 Hall of Famers. Specifically to our team, I don't think the Rockets offensive scheme would work with a PG who can't shoot the 3.

    I don't trust that Dave Hardisty guy. Didn't he knock up Sweet Suzy?

    The difference is CP3 is a good 3 point shooter while rondo is a piss poor shooter

    It's obvious he doesn't fit here.

    The Rockets need a player like Bibby or Billups in their prime. A floor general that can hit a spot up 3.

    You can not get along off the court and still have great on-court chemistry.

    Chemistry is talking about within the confines of a basketball game.

    I'm just saying I think they would ask Harden to defer to Rondo/CP3/other elite PG when it comes to ball-handling/facilitating duties.

    Why, Rondo would be a godsend for Dwight.

    1st Possession: Rondo/Howard PnR
    2nd Possession: Harden/Howard PnR

    Repeat.

    Thad young? Seriously another undersized pf. Already have scrubby line of ex rocket pf's terrence jones, chuck hayes, patrick patterson, clarence weatherspoon, scottie pippen, jordan garbageman hill, motijuenes. What is rocket world coming to? Where is the morey magic? Worked hard to get 7 foot asik and now losing him for nothing.Typical tradition of the rockets. Utter mismanagement of players when they cant make asik happy. He was a beast in the playoffs for rockets and bulls. Yeah he misses layups but he could've been a great defensive tandem with dwight.
    Genius moves by morey. Sign them to put trust in them for long term but try to dump them after 1 season. Next victim is jeremy lin. And everyone is hating asik and lin for their contracts when the blame should be on the one who signed them in the first place!

    I think it's going to be a three team deal; Rockets, Celtics, and Sixers. I think Omer's going to the Sixers.

    Young had over $28mil 3-yrs remaining
    Hawes, pf/c, $6.6mil – expiring contract

    You just called one of the top 50 NBA players all time (according the NBA All-Time team from the 50th anniversary) a scrub. Congrats on your excellent analysis.

    I hope the Rockets do not take any 2 year deals in return. Hawes would be ideal since his is an expiring contract. Need to sign Parons to an extension this Summer. As for Lin, if the team can get a true PG then I am ok with that if not why make a deal.

    Rondo

    Won't be coming to Houston for Asik unless houston is willing to give up a star along with Asik.

    Bird rights, we can be over the cap as long as Les/Morey is cool with it

    What in the world? And you've been here since 06? Thad's a 3. T Jones and Monty are current Rocket, not an ex. And neither are undersized. Quitten was a 3 and played on the Rockets a million years ago. Jordan Hill wasn't undersized at the 4. Hayes played mostly 5. Weatherspoon played all of 40 games nearly a decade ago. It became obvious Asik couldn't coexist with Dwight on the court and didn't want to be a backup. Nobody is hating Lin's or Asik for their contracts.

    Not the best post I've ever read in the GARM, that's for sure.
