IMO the Heat is the only starting 5 that rivals ours... This is a huge splash, like enormous, like tsunami
Wow. Nice Summer: In: Bonzi Wells Shane Battier Kirk Snyder Vassilis Spanoulis John Lucas III Casey Jacobsen Steve Novak Out: David Wesley Stromile Swift =not a bad balance sheet.
You couldn't have asked for a better fit than Battier and Wells to go with 111. Major props to CD on this one.
Wait, it said "source close to Bonzi Wells....."..... how realiable is ESPN's source? Its not a confirmation, yet.
JVG said this offseason would be BOLD and he was right, he said we can count on the rockets this season, and we can only hope he is right again.

OH BONZI!!!!!! OH BONZI !!!!!!! We will never be the same!!!!!!!!! CONGRATULATIONS TO CD AND HIS STAFF for a great turn around from last season. The Rockets have just reached the next level and should be great fun to watch this upcoming season!!
The best thing about Wells is that he will help with the rebounding and can be a go-to player if McGrady, or Yao goes down. He may be a headcase, but he's *our* headcase! Think the Rockets might try to get another 4/5 with the trade exception?
This seems surreal, is it? I am going to Yahoo sports to check. If this is legit, Rockets are officially a contender. Now the young guys can earn their way in, rather than be a critical key to the team's success. This is huge, if true. And the Astros just won in 15 to keep pace. This is almost too much for a long time Houston sports fan. We aren't used to this.
This takes some of the sting out of the Battier trade now. Hopefully Bonzi can be what Anderson was supposed to be for us last year. Here's hoping for a healthy 82 game season and hopefully playoffs from our core of players.
