Agreed. They needed a bit more depth to their bench. I also can't help but think that the Suns staff are happy to get a former Rocket so they can pick his brain for whatever lessons on defense he retained from his time under Van Gundy. Dribble
Now, that's a little stretch. Picking Padgett's brain for the defensive lessons he RETAINED under Van Gundy???? Let's hope so.
It's a stretch, sure. At the very least, I figure they're happy to pick up a player that at least has a <i>little</i> inkling of how to play defense. Dribble
No kidding. Let's get Jon signed ASAP. I certainly can live without Padgett, and I thought Bowen was gone for sure, but if Barry isn't resigned I'll be one pissed off Rockets fan. (thumbs, I agree about the stupidity of using racial jokes around here... doesn't matter what the race is, and that's the point.)
This is the GARM. Why is everyone not talking about the Rockets game action, not talking about roster moves, not talking about the Rockets even, not talking about the NBA even, not even talking about basketball. Not only that they're talking about BASEBALL in the middle of the GARM. Where are the mods when you need them?
for the late Stevie era when Yao joined the team. the author apparently only cares about the rockets starting in the year of Yao, thereby the word "original". damn the YOF!
My pastor bought Berman's house about .....9months ago. He said he was a great guy. Kind of esentric he said, but VERY nice. and by the way, the house is awesome, and it was in Kingwood. PS Bye Scottie
I am with you, just like all of the other Rocket fans... But he's gone because he has value and a weapon (3 pointer)... Those other guys are over paid with no skills!
T-Mac is the truth and we really need some one that can effectively run the point position to get the maximum potential out of him... He has the coach and supporting cast, now he needs a PG QB...
Rox: Bullard, Chilcutt, Brooks Bulls: Purdue, Wennington Lakers: Medvedenko Detroit: Darko SA: Nesterovic, Barry
can't keep em all and no room anyway. This makes me feel even stronger that mr bowen is a keeper...of the bench of course !
As I said, good riddance. Now, we need to get rid of the other trash on our roster, which happens to be very overpaid, something at least Padgett wasn't. I am talking obviously about Moochie, Ward, Baker, and Spoon. Let's fill these roster spots instead with cheap, young players who haven't made any money in the league yet and hungry to contribute and play at an NBA level. Hopefully that will happen over the next couple of seasons. My opinion is to hire more overseas scouts to do what the Spurs have done to fill up their roster with decent foreign players on the cheap.
