Do you think Josh Smith could fit with the Rockets and fill our defensive void?

    Why do we want 3 points guards and one small forward?

    I totally agree, not a bad thought at all.

    What If we could keep Brooks as well?

    Brooks as a gunner off the bench to put games away with Baron controlling tempo when we need it?

    They did better without him. He doesn't look the same and isn't putting up the numbers he used too. I rather take Arenas before I take Davis.

    I'll give you props for Supah-Saiyan Scola LOL.

    But its hard to compare the two styles simply because JVG is a master at subs while RA is a dunce when it comes to subs. I'd be hesitant to giving him more roleplayers with serious drawbacks as he doesn't know when to play/sit players.

    As for Heinrich....eh. I'm not really that sold on him, he's yet another unathletic streaky shooter, and although his D is good on both guard positions he reminds me too much of reefer.

    I've said it numerous times but the biggest problems lies in the coaching, RA is overwhelmed with the roster and doesn't know who to play so getting even more players will just increase his confusion even more. Unless you give him an Iggy-type or better player who can soak up PT and produce at a high level I'd rather just wait for RA to figure it all out.

    A realistic option, though also a very desperate one.

    I think he is older, fatter, but might be a decent pickup for expirings etc.

    However, his contract is bad, right? Probably not worth getting but a good thought.

    He hasnt been good since he joined the clippers. He's Old, Fat and a ball hog. What makes you think that hes going to come here and magically turn into the Bdiddy that we saw and ALL wanted after his last year in GS?

    look at Billups, nash and miller and

    they said too old.....

    even old quality point guards are still valuable as they are rare

    Did I just read Brooks and "Put Games Away" in the same sentence?

    Haven't we seen during this losing streak that no one on this team can put a team away.

    ummm....brooks, lowry, smith and then davis. You're not going to get very far claiming brooks isn't a point guard.

    Brooks can make 10 point leads 20 point leads off the bench, much like Bobby Jackson.


    He does not control tempo well enough to finish games.
