damn you beat me to it
man, things really are going downhill for them, losing at home to the lowly sixers?
They should trade that useless in your sig. He does absolutely nothing for the Rockets that can't be done for one fourth the money he's being paid.
Trade Battier and Brooks for a lotto pick and a young talent please.
Or Battier + McGrady for Iggy/Butler
Whats with your hate on Brooks? I think lowry and brooks are perfect at the guard position
If Donnie had watched this game with a smart ass which he could use thinking about what could possibly better his team a little bit, he shouldn't have no more hesitation to get this deal done.
you have a LOTR poster as your sig so this indicates that you = automatically lose at life.

then could you give an explanation about what "spurs 2006 champs" denotes?
ive already posted extensively on it. to sum up, the league had an agenda in 2006 and it included avoiding the inevitable spurs-pistons rematch at all costs.
both 'finals teams' miraculously came out of nowhere to make the finals that year, only to both be viciously humiliated in the 1st round the following year...only time in NBA hsitory. hhahahahaha. the Spurs were the best team in the nba that year and they were robbed of a 3-peat by absurdly biased reffing resulting in a perimeter jump shoter getting the most foul shots ever by such a player in aplayoff series.
crofl ty duncan shot more ft's than dirk in that series. nice try though
Dont be ing stupid.
John Wall Baby!! In any event, we need a top 5 pick!
And Chris Bosh
OK, explain to me what your useless of an idol does so well for what he's paid? His defense is average at best, his offense is nonexistent, he can't create for himself or others, he doesn't move well in the offense, and he is getting old. He doesn't earn his pay, and if my team is going to pay someone almost 8 million a year, that person should be providing a lot more than Battier does. I won't overvalue him just because he's a nice guy.
Watch the games and stop looking for a scapegoat after every loss. He missed two late threes, and had a costly turnover, happens. He still is doing what he is supposed too, play D, spread the floor, and be the leader of the team. We arent going to win every game, especially all the "gimmies" when missing Yao, Lowry, having a hobbled Ariza, particularily when Budinger is missing every shot.
Oh and here is why is he valuable.

Battier is a solid starting SF on a contending team. Because he's being asked to do too much isn't his fault.
removing battier from houston would cause a significant hit in perimeter defense.
trade him to the spurs.
Give us Manu and you got a deal.![]()
I don't think we need another injury prone player...Manu is on his last leg and I'd rather just keep Battier if he's all we can get for him.
Manu is much more valuable, pass.
As an expiring contract? Absolutely.
You can keep Battier then... I like Shane's defense, but he's a one trick pony on the other end and we already have 3 or 4 of those... PASS
LOL
You look at PER for the Spurs this season and he's number 2 right after Duncan... and he's on a shooting slump...
Put another way, the only Rocket player with a higher PER than him is Landry... link
