    We have seen and heard news about our former Rockets players except Chase. I know he was injured last season but im surprised hes not in any of the basketball news lately

    He just signed a 3 year, $16million contract with Minny. They plan to make him a big part of the team next season

    I don't how the hell he got that much money. He wasn't that good in Houston, and never really played in Minny. Love RA, but this is another case of RA getting his pets paid like Brad Miller.

    Well RA got his boy Martin signed too, so it looks like he finally has the team he wants pretty much...

    This. I've never been on the Bud bandwagon. He's just not that good and never had much potential that I could see.

    Has there ever been a player who people described as "known for his shooting" who was a worse shooter than Bud? That always kind of cracked me up.

    Chase is doing great for a second round pick. Good for him.

    On overrated "shooters", I know you're saying it to knock on Budinger and not make a discussion. Still,

    - Kobe Bryant himself (technically Lebron has a tad BETTER career 3PT% by .01 points. But Lebron is known as shaky outside shooter while Kobe isnt)
    - Luke Ridnour (Both he and Bud on the Wolves. He's good on midrange, only average from deep, but he's seen like some 3pt marksmen)
    - Deron Williams (Cuz he's compared to Chris Paul. People said Deron's the better shooter of the 2 to give him credit. But he and Paul have the same exact career 3PT%)
    - Brandon Jennings (barely above Rafer Alston).

    There's players like Monta Ellis known for being SCORERS. But not necessarily are SHOOTERS like Michael Redd and Klay Thompson.
    I'd put Carlos Delfino in there too then. Delfino is designated gunner that hits timely 3's,but he could very well fall UNDER career 40% FG shooting next year if he has a down year.
