No. The Rockets will need to stay the course with Shane and add some pieces that will hopefully gets this team heading the right direction. I would also like for the team jersey's to have Houston on them instead of Rockets but that will never happen.
Once we get Magloire.. we will trade him for Wilcox.. then we will trade Wilcox for Kmartin.. then we will trade Kmartin for Al Harrington.. then trade Al Harrington for AI.. then trade AI & Juwon Howard for KG. This sounds like the red paper clip.. http://oneredpaperclip.blogspot.com/
All of the fans like the Rockets. Not everyone is from or has any connection to Houston. No need to alienate the rest of us.
Lots of jerseys have the name of the cities on them, and the jerseys the Rockets wore during the championship years said Houston on them. If you're a fan of the Houston Rockets you're a fan of the Houston Rockets. Why would putting the city on the jersey alienate you? Not having it on there doesn't change the fact that they are the Houston Rockets and are commonly referred to as only "Houston" by sportscasters, media, players, etc etc.
Battier is not getting traded. I'm not sure how to best handle threads like these... it seems a lock is giving it too much visibility. LOL ... that's funny.
