Comments from Mike Harris on the waiving

This is interesting, and without my PhD in NBA trading, it makes sense to me. Hold onto the guys who have trade value to do a little more rearranging, trying to get another big for one of our guards and a bench player with potential. I just don't get why Harris wasn't that bench player.

So are we not going to drop Sura? I didn't consider that. Really, we might not drop Sura?

Maybe it is just about financial arrangements. Gotta be a combination of both considerations, no?

 

woah keep DL outa the conversation. Top 5 worst rockets decision right there not playing that guy.. =)

 

Reminds me of how the board got all worked up about VSpan or Novak.
I guess its fun to bet on the dark horse - to have a favorite pine rider and think of them as the solution to any problems the team is having- but it seems somewhat delusional to me.

That said, I hope we get him back. Or even better for him, maybe he will find a lesser team where he can have some fun and get some playing time.

 

How does it? Those guys were hyped from day one and impressed by what they could potentially do while Harris has come in as a nobody that has impressed by what he has shown on the court.

 

Looks like Sina has got the news of this thread too:

Fortunately the translator is willing to credit the "Houston Rocket fan forum" for the story

 

good info..hope he stays

 

Give me the greayest pine riding fan fav of all time -- Granny!

BTW - how do you remember BBS reactions from before you joined?

 

Oh boy. Now we're going to hear people on the board talk about Harris as if the Rockets just gave up Kobe Bryant.

 

Edit.

 

That actually would make a lot of sense. They could use someone like
him.

 

why would a stranger get all this from Harris...why would he tell you all this inside info?...looks a little made up to me....he just chats about trade talks and whats going on inside the rockets org. to any strangers at the local restraunt?....I don't believe it....i'm sure the rockets wouldn't like him discussing all of that and most players know that.....
