For those who are upset with the Brad Miller signing, who did you want?

you......

 

How many threads do we need about one signing?

 

I want Morey to sign me to 5 years 30 millions (all guaranteed) contract just to warm the bench

 

Second Best Center in the league

 

I dont see anyone on the market that could be better than Miller. Championship teams spend money for players.

Is the majority of the board indian? Cheap mo fo's :grin:

 

a real star player?

I don't think many at mad at the Miller signing. It's a very good signing in and of itself. However, if we're left with Miller and a few re-signed pieces at the end of the off-season... it's still a disappointment.

 

The OP is right there are a bunch of posters acting like a plethora of young, atheltic, 7 foot shotblocking, rebounding, defensive wizards are available and we got screwed overpaying for the 34 year old who brings nothing additional to the team.

We all want a 25 year old Deke, there is no one available and few players like this anyway.

 

goodbye Andersen and Jeffries.. (good riddance)

 

I'm not mad at who we signed. I'm mad how much we signed him for.

 

3 years with only $1 million guaranteed on the last year. How in any way could this negatively affect the Rockets?

 

A lot of you really suck. It's sad that you would consider this offseason a disappointment. I call it a success. We could be one of those teams that never chooses to bring their own free agents back and don't go aggressively after other free agents, but we do. We had a great offseason and although we didn't get Bosh, what realistically could we get out there? Please answer that for me. Thanks.

 

Voice of reason...is that you?

 

lol no I'm not Indian.

 

yah too bad brad miller is going to do a little more than warm the bench .. maybe if ur 7 ft and have been a 2 time allstar then you can give them a call

 

I wanted Dwight Howard! :grin:

 

Good Post El Pig.....

I like the fact of bringing in a veteran that can be a back-up or starter... Right now Yao is still an unknown and with Brad you have someone who's been in the trenches, knows the system and can also teach Hill.

What people dont get is this.. we have no room in the salary cap.. just about everyone that got traded of value.. got traded to a team that was able to take them without giving any salary in return that was an option we just didnt have ..

utah got jefferson bc they were able to use their trade exception ..
dallas got chandler bc they were able to trade a playing who had a non guarenteed contract, which essentially means they traded 13 mil of salary exception..

all these teams that traded their players did so with the intention of not wanting to take back ne salarry .. so we remain patient and not force the issue . ..we resigned our guys .. we got a back center that excels in our system .. we have the development of our young players (hill, patterson, brooks) to look forward to... we have a whole year with martin that will help improve our overall record.. oh yah and yao is back ... thats a lot of improvement in my eyes ...
