U take a player who wasnt motivated by Kobe and arguably the best coach of all time and u expect him to time travel 5 yrs to when he was 26..... the SOB is 32. the 3 yrs it will take us to be competative his broken ass will be retiring.... Thus, I am no longer watching, supporting, following, mentioning this team again. I love you guys on here, we had some laughs and great conversation but i bid you farewell.
After getting "The Ostrich" Gasol and losing two favorites in Martin and Scola (plus Dragic and a pick, wow?), and the possibility of losing Chuck AND having McHale at coach with a poor coaching resume, etc etc etc, I am going to have a hard time adjusting to the new era of weirdness.
I personally HATE this trade, but I am a Rockets fan for life. You have to deal with the highs and lows. You obviously were a bandwagoner.
We could resign Shandon Anderson and I'll still be trolling Rockets blogs...come on. Anyone but that guy we rented from the Bulls for a season. I won't even mention his name. A new era begins!
