i thought they traded rafer alston so aron brooks could start..
By the way Brooks was doing pretty good against Portland in the playoffs as a starter

I guess this could be good for the Rockets, he will help the ticket selling on a bad team.
That would make sense, considering they're totally fucked anyway.

In a suit watching the game.

This is a contract year, McGrady will be back with a vengance if only for his benefit. As I have said before, there will be a lot of silence and excuses when the Rockets (the dead team that they are) starts kicking the shit out of your teams.

Brooks and AI, that back court makes Nash and J-Rich look like Isiah Thomas and Joe Dumars on defense.

Brooks is not a bad defender unless you have a point guard that can post him up, and there aren't many of those around. Besides, until there is some solid evidence of this AI thing being true I refuse to accept it.

:lmao The Franchise spends his whole summer talking about how much of a ball hog, cancer and past his prime player Artest is only for his team to sign Allen fucking Iverson. Gotta love it.
There's no way that this is legit. It would be all over espn.com and not to mention Cutchfans

Did you hear it on the radio? Because it sounds like BS, I don't think Morey would offer him a 2 year deal, unless it's for the vet minimum?

Well, they do need scoring.

Iverson and McGrady on the floor at the same time would be a catastrophe in the making, which is why one of them would have to come off the bench

I think this would be a good move, it would be nice to see Iverson finish his career off on a good note.
PS- I think the Rockets will still make the playoffs.

T-Mac AND AI on the same team? WOW....talk about Cancer.
Unless its a one year deal, or there is some sort of trade imminent, this makes zero sense. First we have zero money left and second we have like 17 players on the roster.

good move for the rockets. best way to ensure a lottery spot. maybe they think their team is too good so they want to tank for sure

Only if he agrees to come off the bench, would this be a good move......I like the Pops Mensah Bonsu signing though

If this is true then Ariza won't be touching the ball much. Rockets aren't winning any championships anyway so the gamble on AI might work out, if the report is true.

This is a total Morey Moneyball move. Pickup undervalued assets way below market price. We got AI for cheap.
He won't hurt us. He's like getting Steve Francis a few years back. If he produces great..if not, then he can ride the pine like Mike James did.
