Reply With QuoteGriffin + Pike is better than Posey for the Rockets. Now if you can just get Mobley and Francis to get the ball to Yao more often, you'll be fine.
posting this in here since not many people go to the other forums. no, it's not a huge signing, but Griffin is a pretty good defender who can make the open shot, and move without the ball.
This would also confirm that Posey's offer will not be matched, and he will be going to Memphis (today is the 15th day). Posey played well last year, but getting Piatkowski + Griffin for the same price isn't a bad deal, especially on a team that had multiple roles to fill.

Freaking Mavs fans are probably flipping out right now.
uh oh, look out, the Rockets will be battling for that 9th seed again.

bah, Utah's spot is wide open... and the Rockets were leading Phoenix by a couple of games until they lost Rudy, and had to finish the season without a coach.
It's so funny to think about, though... with as quiet of a summer as the Rockets have had, they've still had twice the offseason that Dallas had.
Dallas won 60 games and went to the WCF.
Rockets were at home picking their noses and it looks like they will be doing it again this year.
Great moves Cat. Great moves.
I didn't know there were Rocket Homers too. I thought that was a Spurs thing.
If you are going to rag on a team, make sure they suck worse than your own.
Oh, so you can only criticize teams if your team is better? That's honestly that stupidest thing I've ever read. I think Dallas had a poor summer, and I think it's funny given their owner and their resources. I don't think my knowledge or understanding of the game is diminished because my team didn't make the playoffs.
also, umm... exactly how do you figure that Houston will be sitting at home again? They signed two quality role players and a good head coach. What team is going to beat them out? You still think Utah will be in the playoffs? What have Seattle and Golden State done to improve more than the Rockets?
Correction, they may make the eight seed. Sorry for the dilemma there Cat.
Dallas doesn't need to make any moves bro. If Nowitski didn't go down, Dallas may have beaten the Spurs.
Dallas will still be at the top of the West while the Rockets will be lookin up. Your little moves didn't make you a contender but a playoff squeaker.
You ever heard of a Scoreboard? Next time look at it when you go to a Rocket game, the one that usually says your team lost. Thats probably why you haven't noticed it. Maybe this year, you will get a feel for a winning scoreboard.
the rockets vs the number one seed the spurs

Ducks, the Spurs aren't going to be a number 1 seed again. Not with the moves they made.
I would say 3 or 4.
Sequ,
seriously, what's your deal man? When did I say these moves made the Rockets a contender? When did I say that it made them better than Dallas, or even comparable to Dallas? All I was doing was saying that Dallas had a bad summer, which I see you guys doing all the time. Is it somehow OK for you but not for me?
Dallas has a of a team. I'm not sure what I said to imply otherwise. Also, considering the Rockets won more games than they lost, come up with a better insult...
rasho will be tough willis will rub off on him
you also did not think the spurs would catch dallas last year either right?
I believe in :spam
I didn't knock Dallas or any other team, however, I am just stating that you seem to think that your Chess moves were greater than the Mavs.
The Mavs already beat the Rockets in the Chess game without even opening the box, catch my drift?
Now i know you mention them because they are the other Texas team and it would be idiotic to mention the Spurs in a Spurs forum, so i understand your ironic take.
If I mispoke, please forgive me as I on occasion but not often do.
So...
Rasho is weak Ducks. Sorry. Thats my company line.
I bet he would beat the out of you:tyson
LMAO!
Good one.
You are probably right, but I am talkin in the NBA Post.
yeah, I see what you're saying. I do think the Rockets had a better summer than Dallas, but Dallas has been doing better over the last five years, and I know there's a lot more work the Rockets have to do.
The only reason I mention Dallas is that they're an in-state team and rival, and I don't like them.
You Rock Cat! You Rock Brotha.
Please know that my statements in no way reflect the ownership of this forum or any other. So the "you all" term doesn't apply to me.
Peace.
haha, it's cool Sequ.
I'm always saying bad stuff about Dallas... they're kind of like the Lakers to me. Even if they start winning every championship, I'll still hate them and I'll still try and laugh at them.
This is the move that put them over the top....
Hang on SEQU - Dallas may have beaten San Antonio if Dirk didn't go down????? OMG, that's so much BS. Were you watching the minutes before he went down, the Spurs were absolutely creaming the Mavs from many different attack points. You need to to take that "may" and make it a "wouldn't" - there was absolutely no way the Mavs would have beaten the Spurs when they barely beat the Blazers without thier starting center.
nevermind...i should just keep this to myself so nothing I regret is said.
Southern Dan, you are a boner homer.
If it wasn't for Kerr and Jackson bailing us out against Dallas, we would have lost.
If Dirk was there, he is there go to guy and he was gone.
look at the game when Dirk was playing and look at the games he didnt.
The Spurs played much better when he played.
Better match ups, better rotations.
Learn the game you balding moron.
Thank You tpark9 - Sequ - since when do we exclude players on teams as not really part of the team. If it wasn't for Kobe, if it wasn't for shaq they wouldn't have had 3 championships. What kind of dumb is that??? Who's more of a homer discrediting peeps on payrolls of opposing teams?? Wake up.
