I really hope there are better things to come ... or else this is just another wasted draft by Rockets Management.
Jason Smith draft rights have been traded by Miami. What if he is coming to the Rox in a package? I can dream cant I.
If there is no trade, all I can say is Mike James, Rafer Alston, V-Span, JL3 and now possibly Aaron Brooks? WOW. I think the comment made earlier about watching p*rn and got soft officially sums up this draft pick.
Jeff Van Gundy you got out just in the nick of time! No really, there has to be a trade... Pleeeeeease!
Jeff and Cutch Crew.... I realize you guys are "in the know" and encourage all of us "FANS" (short for FANATIC) that we shouldn't be so reactive to every "little" thing.... But If I recall, those of us who wanted a different brand of B-Ball than Iso-ball under Rudy were told not to be so harsh about Rudy's style since he only had Steve and Cuttino, then we got Yao, and nothing changed... Onto JVG, who I NEVER wanted, and who got us no closer to a playoff series win than I did.... F*CK JVG and F*CK Daryl Morey and F*CK LES Alexander for allowing the one team that just ****ed us in 7 games to get the one player that will allow them to stay ON TOP of us for the next 10 f*ckin years!!!! Unless there's somebody coming into the backcourt who can shoot over someone that's guarding them, then there is NO TRADE that will allow the ROX to move anywhere further than we did this year. Daryl Morey is demonstrating only that he and the Astro's GM went to the same school of sit on your ass and do absolutely nothing in the hopes that somebody won't notice how f*cked-up you are at doing your alleged JOB!!! Ike Diogu doesn't even excuse letting the Jazz take the 3rd leading scorer in the nation 1 F*CKING spot in front of you. It's not like our draft pick is going to be able to guard theirs!!!!! After a season that held so much promise, to be **** on by the team we live an die with is the ultimate insult!!! So, screw those of you preaching patience, and calm and giving sh*t to those of us who are absolutely PISSED OFF RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I agree.It's just tough waiting. I mean it really took me 24 hours to digest the Battier deal and now we're waiting again.No instant gratification for us.Oh well,I'm a Houstonian.I can take it.
I think there is one of two trades in the works, either trading people to make room for brooks, (like moving head or alston).... (alston and head for diogu and daniels) or getting rid of brooks (brooks and sura for tinsley and diogu) Im thinking indianna
OK guys be now any sane person left on this board knows this must be a trade. However my question is which team would trade for Brook? Any team could have gotten him in the mid to late 2nd round then why go for him the 1st round?
heyyy, a pissy post, an angry post, cursing at the rockets...AND calling out the mods. Think you might get banned for this one?
The love for Almond is a bit over the top.... JJ Redick and Adam Morrison were among the scoring leaders and were drafted high, where are they now? Almond didn't even play against the teams that Redick did. I understand he played for Rice... but come on, get real, he'll be a 10 mpg player for Sloan maybe. He won't have an impact for the forseeable future. Keep the Jazz on top of us for 10 years? If the Jazz stay better than us for 10 years, it will be because of Carlos "Loozer" and Deron Williams, not this dude Almond. He was available at the bottom of the first round for a reason.
