The "Random Rocket Trade Proposals" Thread - 2007 Offseason

i feel like theres a fly in the room that needs to be swatted GEEZ lol...anyways lets go out there and get Haslem or Foster to put the finishing touches on our lineup

 

Lets trade Rafer for Cuttino Mobley and team him up with Francis and T-Mac so we can thumb our noses at Orlando. LOL

 

with another good pf or c we will be as deep or deeper than pretty much any team out there. i see it as... a few flaws must be straightened out.
1. now we got a pf which was on everyone's mind and i have faith in him but can he live up to the hype? he is a rookie here. hayes is a good back up (only b/c we love him) but he cant put the ball in the hole anywhere besides a layup.
2. yao is dominant and the reason we win, although we did really well with only t-mac, but can t-mac hold off again. he is a great player, but everyone runs out of gas and now we got players around him, so maybe it will be easier. the upgrades we have so far are only a pg. scola will most likely prove worthy,but its not proven yet. even last year juwan was wreckin when yao was out. he was doing everything he could and we didnt finish the season right. Who will back up yao?
3. who is our pg? i think francis should most likely start with the stars around him and put james with the bench so he can be the "superstar" that he thinks he is, b/c in the past our bench sucked. im glad we got a scorer, but get rid of the trash. Rafer and sura should be gone. maybe keep head i dunno sometimes i like sometimes i hate him for the rookie mistakes he has never grown out of. brooks should be there i want to see this kid develop!

so with these small flaws fixed, 2 of which are greater than the other, we will be the 07/08 nba world champions!! we believe! do you? we might even go back to back again

 

I'd rather pry Trevor Ariza from the Magic.

 

I love it how everyone here is predicting championship when we haven't even seen a preseason or regular season game played. Talent on paper is not equivalent to teamwork, chemistry, or games won for that matter.

 

I saw into the future and the rockets do rule!!!!!!!!! They win 80 games! The chemistry is so awesome it blows my own weiner off as well as the weiners of many others! ROCKETS FOR PRESIDENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now, you are making a different argument. I agree that Battier is not a good overall scorer. He is very one-dimensional, offensively. I was disagreeing with your point that he is an inconsistent 3pt shooter. He is about as consistent of a 3pt shooter as there is in the NBA. A guy who takes a significant amount of 3pt shots each year and averages 40% for his career is a consistent 3pt shooter, end of story.

 

That clip displays more intelligence than many of the posts I have read over the past few weeks.

 

Now that is an excellent point. Teamwork beats individual talent.

 

Dang, your still ranting about Camby, wow thats like 2 months straight. Ever thought about moving to Denver?

 

2 days and about 3 comments in total. Nah, not gonna move to Denver.

 

good going Brooks, now you broke the thread <<< ^^^^ >>>

 

What do you think of this 6'9'' 250 lb gentleman as the new PF/C for the Rockets?

 

Darius Miles has a bad attitude but he would add athleticism to the frontcourt. I wouldn't do it.

 

Congratulations, Daryl F'n Morey, for incorrectly identifying the person that broke the thread.

It was already broken when I responded earlier.

 

Wow, what a disaster. He's only 25-years-old too.

 

he seems to do thhat on every thread..hes a cancer i swear..get him outta here make it happen guys...lets trade brooksball to the denver forums = )

 

Justin Reed and Rafer for Haslem. Any thoughts?

Salaries work, need to wait till Aug 14th.

 

Rafer, Head for Ryan Gomes, Gerald Green and Sebastain Telfair.

Cut Telfair.

Saves us close to $1 million.
