    Nanu must be gone in that trade. Zhou is a Rio Grande Viper if I ever saw one. Black will get minutes because Nene doesn't play back to backs really. I think our hope is we add two more people and land Melo.

    CP3/???/Bobby Brown
    Harden/Gordon
    Ariza/Tucker
    Melo/???
    Capela/Nene/Black

    So this basically means no Melo. I like this Black guy as plan B.

    We are signing him for backup depth at the 5 spot. It will come a long way in keeping Nene fresh.

    Black will basically take over Montrezl's minutes from last year.

    So far this offseason, the Rockets have upgraded
    • CP3 > PatBev
    • PJ Tucker > Dekker
    • Black > Harrell
    Just need to get another guard to replace Sweet Lou and then see if we can eventually flip Ryno for Melo

    Wish the Rockets could have gotten Felton as their 4th guard. Has guaranteed playing time in OKC as the backup 1 though.

    Even with the Black signing, I'd like to see them add another big man who can play the 4. Diaw would be ideal, or maybe Speights. And they still need someone to play the Lou Will role as the 4th guard. I'm crossing my fingers for Barbosa, but I wouldn't mind Tony Allen as a defensive specialist.
