    Last year the Rockets had no one other than Harden and Beasly that could shoot the ball for gods sake.... Now the Roxkets have at least 4 Harden, Beasly Amderson, Gordon. Can't complain

    Rockets need a Pg amd center(larry Sanders anyone's?) and eff it lets go to war.

    If Harden actually gets in shape and tries, a starting lineup with ariza, Bev and Capela doesn't have to be horrible

    Is that better or worse than combined 340 million to 3 guys combining to play 23 games after All-Star Break last season, who weren't even all-stars?

    not efficient one

    4/53 is a sweetheart deal with this new cap. I take Gordon/Harden against any other offensively.

    I actually like the idea of Gordon as a Sixth Man

    Look for the Rockets to go after a cheap PG like Ramon Sessions. It's clear MDA wants Harden to be the primary ballhandler, and I think PatBev will still start to provide perimeter defense. Sessions can come off the bench and run the offense. Morey could get him for like 3 years 24 million or so

    So I like the signing at this price. But only if it's Gordon off the bench which is what I'm assuming this is right? Harden and Gordon on the court at the same time is a defensive nightmare.
