Morey said he is pursuing another free agent, and hoped to announce another signing "in the next week or two." But he said the Rockets mostly likely would acquire a center to replace Yao through a trade this summer.
Surely J-Rich will be agglutinated with Amare, so Barbosa isn't gonna come to Houston anyways. With the 7'6 huge piece of **** out for next season, Rockets will have no big guy to work as the axis in their lento half-court offense. Run-gun seems to be the only way for Rockets to keep themselves looking like a contender next season.
The one good thing about the 2009-2010 season is that the Rockets are very used to playing without Yao. There will be little to no chemistry problem...Trevor Ariza seems like a player who will fit in with Adelman's offense.
I figured they would have changed that rule by now. I remember the NBA wasn't too happy about Sean Elliott returning mid-season after they granted that exception to the Spurs when he got a kidney transplant in 99-00.
Nope. They were trying to decide whether to apply for it using T-Mac or Yao. But they decided since Yao is more likely to miss all of next season, they would use it on him instead of McGrady
This is true...But that shows how amazing Kobe is because he still played great
Lowry and Wafer are not even average level players.
I wish Ariza the best
They are 23 and 24, they are still young
One thing I don't understand about Ariza's move... why did he leave the Lakers??? I may be wrong, but weren't they willing to offer him the MLE? Didn't he leave because he wanted a contract above the MLE?
The Lakers let him go, not the other way around.
So, the Lakers didn't want him back because they preferred Artest? Interesting.
Trevor's agent David Lee is the Josh Weinstein of Sport Agents
What if they bite the bullet and go after Gortat for the entire MLE now. He hasnt put pen to paper yet has he?
Not yet. I think Gortat wants to see the market more and would prefer to see how much he could get before he signs an offer sheet.What if they bite the bullet and go after Gortat for the entire MLE now
I don't know how I would take this if I were a Dallas fan. Too much pressure?? Are you joking? I thought that is what the NBA was about... to go and showcase your skills. Hmmm... sounds like he is a
You are only 19 but time can never help you quit being an idiot, oppositely it keeps aggravating your stupidity day in and day out. It will be pretty interesting to calibrate what kind of idiot you may become when reaching LJ's age, provided you can live that long without committing suicide midway by eating some lizard .
Have you ever seen that episode of family guy where peter was classified as "beyond re ed"? Seems to describe you quite well
BTW, there is some really funny in this thread, very droll.
Kudos to all!
Lord have mercy! What can I say about the Rockets that hasn't already been said about Afghanistan? They look bombed out and depleted.
Knicks fans have absolutely NO room to talk about anybody
How many Bombed seasons you guys up to now...3, 4
That is a particularly brilliant hue of pink KillBill
According to Mitch, David Lee was playing hardball and wanted too much...and had to move in for Artest fast when negotiations for Ariza were going nowhere.
Would you prefer an 8.9 ppg and 4.6 rebound over Artest for the same price?
You cant judge by statistics when two players had different roles on different teams. if you think Artest will average 15 PPG, then for a 40% career FG guy, that will take him about 14 shots when you count in FT and maybe a made 3PTer or two. Who does he take those shots from? Pau Gasol? Kobe Bryant? Odom?
Its all about filling a role, and im not sure whether Artest can do that.
