Rockets sign Michael Beasley

Since he hasn't been on an NBA roster this year, he's still playoff eligible.

 

Yes. Since he was not on an NBA roster after March 1.

 

FOUR left handed PFs

 

Morey must hate high iq players.

 

Strip clubs can't be a positive environment? Lol. Anyways compared to Miami though, Houston is pretty tame.

 

Live look-in at J.B. Bickerstaff upon hearing the news:

Spoiler

 

Alright, I have a good feeling about this.

Great chance for him to succeed...

Interesting and kind of ironic too. :28 try Lawson speaking about Beasly in Miami. Makes a good point.

 

Ultimate **** show status achieved.

 

He can create... I'm willing to say that this dude could flip the script for this team.

I'm anxious to see how he plays with Harden and Howard.

Jokes aside, i think this moves are probably just in preparation for this summer...i mean, as today it's pretty clear that Jones is gone, either we're able to trade him during the draft or not, he's gone, Brewer probably too...so i think Morey is just trying to give a chance at this two talented guys, if they bring something better than Jones and Thornton (which isn't that hard), they'll be here for the minimum next season, if not, bye...to me it's not a bad move at this point...

However some friends (from EU) told me that Goudelock played well in Europe this last years, he's a talented combo guard, a bit undisciplined but he did better in this aspect with coach Obradovic...the problem is that yeah, we don't have Obradovic :s

 

At this point, why not try it? He can score at this level and we hadn't had a consistent scoring PF for some years now. If it doesn't work let him walk in a few weeks when we miss the playoffs and find a real PF this summer. Maybe he will spark us like J Smoove did last year. I like the PG pick up also.

 

Meh, whatever. Poor man's Mo Taylor, but at this point why not?

 

Yes he can

 

He never averaged the amount of points Beasley did.

 

missed the 2009 draft by one season. damn sons. so close.

 

17 vs 19, really?

Anyway, no comparison is perfect. Same general concept applies: offensive-minded big men that are soft, don't play defense and only rebound by accident.

 

SupercoolBeas can ball! He's the stretch 4 we need!:grin: Rockets are gonna have the basketball IQ in the NBA!

 

WTF why is he signing all of these scrubs? Give KJ McDaniels time on the court dammit
