    AI has a higher career shooting percentage than Brooks, and he has shot 57% in 3 games he played this year. If you consider the FTs he regularly gets, his TS% is way better than Brooks.

    But that's not the point, at this stage I consider AB better than AI becuase even if they both don't do much else besides scoring, AB is not a selfish player, the ball doesn't stop in his hands for long stretch. A team is playing like a team under AB, but not under AI.

    I find this "team has good chemistry" funny. Usually a team with good chemistry aren't 1 game above .500

    How are we a team with good chemistry if we start out great but fade away at the end?? Your talking about a future hall of fame guy and guys are saying he is overrated?? Hmmmm... I know he isn't the same player he once was but the A.I now is better than anybody on this team we have now.

    I'll quit following the Rockets for the rest of the year if we sign Iverson. What do we gain? He won't want to be here as the Rockets aren't winning the title and probably won't be second-round material, and so he'll go around being the general jerk he can be. Add that he'll teach Brooks and the others the wrong way to play as a team, and heck no.

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Oh wait, you're serious. As far as I'm concerned, Iverson as he is now is worse than ALL of our non-rookie, non garbage time players, as he doesn't play defense, isn't that brilliant, and chucks up shots.

    rondo is a better playmaker and defensive player than brooks. Brooks is the better shooter

    Bring rondo to houston. They gonna throw his **** to the stands all day. He is a fast rafer alston. WHen you pass the ball to ,pierce,garnett,wallace,ray,house all good shooters your going to get assist.

    Face it guys. If Iverson played for the Rockets his entire career, you would all be loving any story talking about us signing him. Just like when we got Francis back for the third time.

    Now, if we did get him it would be a short term fix. Considering I feel this is a building year for when Yao and Tracy have a full pre-season I think it would hurt us.

    In the short term he would help us, but in the long term it adds nothing to us. If anything it means we get a latter draft pick.
