How about signing Pippen to be our backup PG?

    If the Rockets ever somehow got so confused that they signed Pippen, I would fly to Houston, by a ticket to the game, charge the court and break both his kneecaps. Then I would tell him it was Barkley's fault.

    I was really disappointed that we traded Padgett for a back-up C when Charles Jones is available.

    Probably Scottie still keeps in good condition, probably he can still contribute on court for 15 minutes, but we do not need him, for the sake of a good team atmosphere & player morale.

    And i doubt that Jeff can get along well with him.

    Of course you are right. Why don't we sign other of the "NBA50 greatest"without giving anything up, for example: Bill Russel, Abdul Jabbar, Magic, Bird. :rolleyes:

    I didn't want pippen on our team when he was still able to play basketbal, so there is no way i want him on our team now

    If we are looking for an old PG why not go all the way - Oscar Robertson?

    :D

    I dont think it is really going to matter one way or the other. Pippen would not sign here. He knows better.

    The only thing that will make this better is when he signs with the Heat and the Rockets whoop his ass in the NBA Finals.

    Pippen couldn't run a team when he was here the first time. What makes him think he could do it this time.

    I'm shocked at all the negativity for NBA legend Scottie Pippin.

    You're joking right? Pippen is probably the most hated ex-Rocket of all time so what kind of reaction would you expect amongst a ton of Rockets fans?

    What would be worse? Signing Pippen or trading for Eddie Griffin?

    F**K Pippen! I never want that @$$hole in houston. I'll take Flyin' Ryan Bown over him.


    Besides, dont you remember how much he would get booed by our fans when he left houston and played with the blazers? Just say NO!
