    Hello ClutchFans,

    I hope you all had a great weekend and enjoyed the All-Star game. I posted another Thread on my thoughts on the All-Star game if you would like to check it out.

    We need a legit back up big body 7 foot or greater center. Andrew Bynum or Greg Oden anyone? Why not give one of these guys a try? What do we have to lose? We could get either one on the "cheap." I would prefer Oden over Bynum due to his attitude, but attitude or not we could benefit from one of them. Both would be a substantial upgrade over Dorsey and give us the defensive prescience when Dwight is out. Both were considered "top talent" at one point, but they are both beasts defensively.

    Other then a center, we need a deadly 3 point specialist. We are the only NBA team that does not have a deadly 3 point guy who will kill the other teams moral with those big shots(other than Harden) Bring back Troy Daniels? No free agent 3 point specialist comes to mind or perhaps trade for one, but who? Every

    I believe once we solve these 2 issues, we will be a sure favorite to bring the championship back to Houston. What else do we need at the point? We could become a Dynasty and go for a treble. We have an amazing squad as it is. This is the best team we have had since the early 90s with The Dream and we need to capitalize while we have the chance. DO NOT BE SATISFIED KEEP IMPROVING THE TEAM!

    Your thoughts?

    I think we need another play maker most. A three point shooter would be nice, but I feel like a play maker will result in better three point shooting as a secondary effect.

    Also, I feel comfortable with a rotation of healthy-non-superstar Dwight, Smith, Jones, and Motiejunas.

    Greg Oden? Cmon man. I'd rather bring back Kelvin Cato.

    Pretty sure we still have Matt Maloney under contract. Let's suit him up and he can share PG duties with Bev.

    You are calling me r****ded? You make this assumption due to a post on ClutchFans from a huge fan not even from or close to Houston and just wants best for the team? You don't realize who the **** you are talking to.

    The only thing that does not make sense to me is having Josh Smith, Terrence Jones, Dorsey and Dmo actually get minutes at the center position.

    I'm signing LA baller for toughness, he went hard in response to an insult, the type of grit we need.

    Yes you are.

    Go read some newspapers at a public library and you may know why.

    You can not play NBA in a prison.

    Enough with the "r****d" insult. I thought we had moved past the use of that ridiculous word. Grow up.

    I agree Napalm, anything that would take a significant load off Beard's shoulders is a good thing, his shot was on last night (I know, ASG doesn't play that much defense, but it was still refreshing to see)

    Yes I agree with you, we definitely need another facilitator on the squad. This is priority number one but my points of a real back up C and 3 point shooter would come after this, I forgot to mention your point. Although I cannot agree with our rotation at the C. Guys, Josh Smith gets minutes at the Center spot, regardless of small ball or not, that cannot happen. Imagine how much dominance we would have if the opposing team went small ball and our back up C was a beast at least in physicality? Huge game changer in our favor.

    Thank you. I have no problem being sarcastic, posting funny pictures like the guy above with dumb and dumber, some of them actually made me laugh, but as far as insults go, I won't allow that to go unwarranted.
