    Looks like his time as a Rocket is coming to an end.

    One of the better pickups for the Rockets in recent years, had a couple of injuries, but nothing major - last year sat out when healthy as we tanked......a very good Houston Rocket career.

    Thanks EGO - for all you did, hopefully you do well in your new spot and you join a contender.

    Premature but one of my top 10 favorite Rockets ever. Underrated.

    Seems like lack of patience is a theme for dd when it comes to anything Rockets related.

    Anyone think he is just being held out to avoid injury? Yep, me too.

    And nothing wrong with appreciating a Rox player - I am not the first nor the last to do an appreciation thread.

    EG came up with that All Star talent, only to get injured and learn what it really takes. The term consummate pro is tossed around a lot, but this guy oozes it. (except for his histrionics after not getting a call)
    Were it not for the League getting involved against GS and CP3's injury, EG would be sporting at least one ring...and, us, another title.
    It's also been impressive to see him knock it out this year, while tutoring the youngins.
    EG found a home here, and I'll always consider him a Rocket.

    Sometimes the point has nothing to do with whether or not you're right.
