Huh? On what planet is he available? I suppose Hinrich is a realistic trade option then there's the pipe dream of trying to lure a guy like Arenas if he opts out. It just sucks. This discussion that we're having right here is further proof of why whoever gets the #1 pick in the draft damn well better pick Derrick Rose.
We do not need a "Better PG" we need a very good PG. THis team only goes as far as a PG can take them and our win/loss record says it all.
I wouldn't touch Bibby. He's a shell of his former self. Can no longer shoot and was never really a great ball handler/playmaker.
isn't rafer a pretty solid option? haven't we seen what happens when we don't have him in the lineup? rafer is the best ball-handling decision-maker we have, and that's including t-mac... he doesn't take heat-check 3 pointers, he penetrates, and he swings the ball when necessary.
No, Rafer is not a good option. The only time Rafer is a plus is when he's on a good streak. I know his ability to control the team is valuable, but that's because the rest of our "PGs" can't do it. If we can get a PG who can control the team but is actually a consistent offensive player it will be a major upgrade for this team. Rafer is one of the reasons the streak didn't have a lot of meaning to me. It was nice and all, but it was based largely on a mediocre player hitting one of the best streaks in his career against some bad teams, some mediocre teams, and a few decent teams. Rafer is NOT the answer at PG for a championship team. The Rockets are badly overmatched at the PG position when we play every other WC playoff team.
Even if Rafer and Yao are were healthy for the playoffs, the point guard position still needs to be upgraded. Anybody is better than what we have now.
in fact, we get everyone in every postion. If we can keep everyone healthy, we would be the championship
Rafer is good enough, there won't be any additions to PG, be realistic. But Head has to go no matter what.
i live in canada so i get to watch all the raptors games trust me, calderon is for real and he would be PERFECT for us
I have had a man crush on Jose for a couple of years. If only TJ Ford hadn't gotten hurt this season.
Baron Davis may opt out. I'd take him. Jose Calderon is on my most wanted list. probably not going to happen given Toronto's view on TJ Ford. the problem is the Rockets have to convince someone to take a lot less money to play in Houston.
