Bro, why would Dragic be a one year rental? He would be on a championship contender, with a coach and organization he likes, and could be offered a 5 year max. He'd have two superstars in their primes to play with. There would be no possible better situation for him then to re sign here IMO. Plowman, has also stated that he hear Dragic would agree to re sighn if traded here, if you trust him.
Seriously. 24 year old top 10 player, he's the reason Howard came here, he is the Rockets savior. We have 2 top 10 player in their primes, we're a very fortunate fan base right now. But this forum seems to get more hectic and angry by the day with the team and each other. I seriously consider giving clutchfans a break for a while, so much drama..... Na but who am I kidding, I aint going nowhere lol
Don't let the endless whining of a seldom few represent the entire fan base. A vast majority here appreciate Harden, even with his flaws, as they should.
C'mon son! Whats up with the Love rumors then? How come I hear reports saying " Love says he would re-sign if traded to cleaveland "? Players have these agreements all the time. Players can personally give the team a nod on whether they'd re-sign or not with the team that is trying to trade for him. Of course Dragic wouldn't negotiate a contract the day he gets traded here, he will do that when he expires. Doesn't mean he can't voice a verbal agreement of re-signing with our front office.
Bledsoe played just fine with a ball dominant guard in John Wall, no need to exaggerate your point for wanting Dragic by denigrating Bledsoe. Either would be excellent upgrades next to Harden.

I personally did not see lebron leaving Miami. That was definitely an opinion and I was wrong. It still hasn't sunk in he'll be back in Cleveland. I don't think Bosh was as close as people say he was to coming here. He's not gonna come out and say "I was never leaving Miami I just wanted the max", he just wasn't going to take a major discount with no lebron.
I've been expecting Marion to basically sit out and jump into a suitable situation around January, Houston sounds like they want him to play backup 3/stretch 4, that's a lot of work compared to being someone's 15 mpg backup and nothing more for half a season.
Not by me. He's not LeBron or Durant, but he's right below them, along with a handful of other players, none of them without flaws. I do think it was a mistake to give him the green light. You need to make players earn it. My hunch is that unless McHale can get the team deep into the second round, that he's not going to be brought back, and you can bet that the Rockets will look for a replacement who knows how to manipulate/motivate players.
This. Carl needs to stop undermining Morey's work here (to be completed). If you believe in the Butterfly Effect, then you want to make sure your stars are appreciated, lest you pull a derogatory cover page calling out your superstar in the thick of the playoffs (for OKC, the Oklahoman paper may be their butterfly).
Damn...just thinking back... Chris Bosh was literally the best possible addition this team could have made out of all of the players in the NBA (outside of KD/LeBron/a few star PGs)
Bosh would have been so perfect here, but I aint mad at the decision to take a max offer from a team in desperation.
Why do clutchfans feel Miami gave Bosh the max out of "desperation" when they wanted the Rockets to give him the max (more than Harden) to be the 3rd wheel. Doesn't that make us desperate too... Miami is still a playoff team with Bosh and Wade... I don't see how that's desperate. And Bosh has less competition in the eastern conference. Doesn't have to worry about getting worked over by Griffin, Z-Bo, Davis, LMA, Duncan, Dirk, etc on a nightly basis... He was never coming.
It makes complete sense that miami gave him the max. You can't rebuild in wades last years, would be completely unfair to one of the franchise's all time best. Clearly not gonna win a title, but at least they can make the playoffs and be decent.
