    If Bogut turns us down again, I'm gonna load him into a catapult and launch him directly into the sun

    I guess some people here consider Harrell and Nene centers..

    Harrell is not a center, Nene is more like a PF than a center. The only real center we have is Capela

    Between Harden and Lou drawing fouls and Bogut's constant illegal picks, the refs will either get tired of making calls or their whistles will just melt.

    If Bogut comes here and sets picks for Harden and Lou using the cookie jar move, we're going to shoot 15 FT's a game just on 3 pointers.

    His illegal screens would be helpful to our shooters. He's such a scumbag, but fills a need on this team.

    I'm not convinced he'll sign here though, we definitely took a risk unloading those guys for nothing.

    actually now that i think about it. why would he go to a loaded frontcourt situation in SA if he wanted PT?

    cleveland doesn't have a chance if (when) they get deron though. SA has too much depth in the front court and going there seems like a move to spite us, though i guess that's a possibility with this douche canoe.

    i think the only real options are houston or boston if he wants to go to a contender.

    Ha! No, I was responding to a question about the respective CAP situations for CLE and SAS.

    Question is if Bogut wants to be here. When the trade happened I believe he had a choice to come to Houston and he picked Dallas. I don't think he likes us and or Harden from some choice words.

    Even said that DMA is a good choice but not a coach that fits his style of play. I guess we can take it for what it's worth, but doesn't make sense because GS plays a bit of the same type of offense.

    He's giving up money to get released so he can pick a contender. I'm not sure an extra million is going to matter to him, honestly.

    But in his defense, when that trade went down, no one saw the Rockets sitting at 40-18 and in 3rd place at the All-Star Break. And very few predicted the Mavs would be this bad(especially with Bogut). If he doesn't wanna come here now, it means he reeeeeeeally doesn't wanna play for the Rockets.

    Every time we play against long centers we have a hard time . I'm sorry for the haters but he is exactly what we need a long and big center that can rebound, pass, set good picks and he is decent shot blocker. Besides it's better to get him before Cleveland, Golden State or San Antonio. I'm all in for Bogut.

    yeah it's been openly admitted by players across the league in interviews, that they didn't expect the rockets to have the season they've had thus far. Whether that helps Boguts case or not remains to be seen. There could very well be just dislike by both parties at the end of the day

    Yeah I hope this is the case that it was just trade talk BS etc...As much as I didn't like him in GS, he fills a glaring need on our team and I would be fine with. Everyone needs to suck it up if he comes here and helps this team one way or another. His rebounding, size and rim protection is needed. The depth is also key with our older players like Nene.
