    I love Mooch's quotes and hair. I hate that he came into camp 2 years ago and had a mediocre season. I hate that last year that supposedly he was in shape and never showed a single reason he ever should have been an NBA job. Unbelievable collapse, and actually the biggest disappointment on the team that cost Rudy his job.

    declan,

    Saying that Moochie was the biggest factor that cost Rudy his job is a little extreme don't ya think?

    I mean, if a team's sucess is that dependant on a backup 10-15 MPG point guard, then you never had much of a team to begin with. ;)

    If you get paid the cash, you should expect to get kicked in the ass if you don't earn it...

    Moochie got paid millions, missed training camp, showed up out of shape and overweight. has never recovered. He had 1 good year but keep this in mind, the rockets only won 28 games that year. Francis was out so it was moochie leading the team. Basically Moochie had a good year for a crappy team. How many times do we see that happen every year?

    • Dribbles off the clock
    • Shoots an awful FT %
    • Is severely overpaid
    • Slows the team down
    • Does not seem dedicated to the team game
    • Thinks that a few buzzer-beaters will make up for his pilfering ass
    • Thinks he's an All-Star
    • Has the nerve to shoot when Yao or Steve is on the floor

    I like the Mooch, I really do. He'd be a great guy to party with.
    I'd like him far more on another team eating his horrible contract.

    Are you even a Rockets Fan ? Have you ever seen a Game? Moochie is a Rockets Mistake. He never caused anything to happen, never!!! He is the King of Dribble Mania and thats it !! He is what is wrong with America, hes only in it for the MONEY and couldnt care about anything else. He doesnt have enough intelligence to be in the NBA.

    I don't mind moochie, I just don't think that he is a very qualified back up pg. He doesn't play very smart...I say this because he takes so much time off the clock before he finally sets up a play.

    he played half as much this year and his stats were cut in half. statistically he didn't get worse. however i remember moochie causing the rockets to lose in the 4th on stupid mistakes more than a few times

    Isn't decision making one if not the most important aspect of a point guard?

    I don't necessarily hate him but I do think he hurts us when he is out there (especially given the fact that I don't forsee any upside with him). Granted, he has hit some clutch shots in the past but we are in some serious trouble if we have to depend on little Moochie to make our game winning shots when we have Steve, Yao, Cat etc...

    He makes more than Hedo Turkoglu.....Bobby Jackson.....Damon Jones......Rafer Alston.......Shammond Williams..........

    HE'S FREAKIN OVERPAID.

    I used to like him. I thought he was kinda cool with his hair and stuff.

    Now he just......SUCKS.

    He screws everything up.

    He always gets to start the 2nd quarter off.

    He blows everything.

    He sucks.

    He doesn't even look that athletic.

    He can't even dunk.

    He makes 3.6 million bucks for sucking. And his contract was for like 7 freakin years.

    He went to like 3 different training camps or whatever...and he was cut by all the teams.

    Maybe we are nice or something but we decided to sign him.

    We're stuck with him.

    He has had a couple of good games though...but not consistent. He is a good garbage time player...but shouldn't be playing 12 minutes per game.

    He's r****ded!

    I don't hate HIM. I hate him being on the team. The only reason people even liked him is because of his hair, name, and "look." Yeah he hit a couple of clutch shots, but for how much he is paid he is horrrrible. He's not even dime a dozen, he's worse.

    My mom looks at me when I tell her, she said "son, you're right. You're better than Moochie Norris."
