Holy crap!!!! We lost our second best passer to Yao and plus Rafer's been phenomenal since T-slack out. Now we have no playmakers at all. AB? He's more like a SG.
THIS IS A GOOD TRADE. I love Lowry & Brooks. We are not going anywhere with Rafer starting at point.So it's time to move him. But Rafer, appreciate what you done for the Rockets.........take care in Orlando, my friend.
Not impressed at all. This was the best we could do? I'm sure Morey has a plan...but I don't really see the point here. Can't say I know much about these players.....guess I should do some research before I criticize further.
Wish Rafer all the best in Orlando....I think we'll be alright with AB. He maybe small but he's quick as hell. He'll learn a lot from Barry.... We ride 2gether, we die 2gether
thats what ive been asking!!! how the hell do we give up the better player and not get a pick. cook is going to memphis so they sure as hell got something back only other thing is cap relief but for what?
Always a huge Skip to my Lou fan, bye Rockets, be happy w/your new PG ruining your team *fly to memphis*
Actually his season stats are horrible he is shooting 24% from the arc and 40% from the field. Those are sub Rafer numbers. Last season when he was averaging 21 min a game he averaged less than 4 assists so I'm not sure the numbers bear out your position. I really hope this is setting up the table for the Baron Daive announcement cuz right now its seems like a weird move. Next to Barry nobody moves the ball better in Adleman's offense than Rafer.
OK....now I can say...I'd rather have Rafer. Neither of these guys even plays. Shaw is listed at 6'9".....do we really need another one of those? I can only guess that it will be for depth if/when we move Landry. I really don't think AB is ready to run the offense night in and night out. He's had some really nice stretches of play, but his stats aren't that great. Um...go Rockets?
TMac to Yao? Rafer to Yao? Morey took on a horrible player Cook, to get a point guard downgrade skill wise. Is he trying to rebuild the 5th seed in the west? He better have another legit starting PG coming in.
we will not make it out of the first round now. why are we downgrading the PG position ? what a horrible trade. and brian cook ???? LOL what a SCRUB
not that bad? he and brooks combine 4.8 or 5 ast per game? what a pathetic backcourt, No. 30 in the league!
