100% right; Lowry is a better PG. Brooks is one damn good SG, but we already have Martin. I see no use for him beside from benching him as the 6th man.
Let's all pray that Yao will be ready when China calls upon him again.

Bosh doesn't work with Yao; we need hard ass banger PF's for Yao. Beside Bosh won't get his shots if he comes to Houston with Brooks, Martin chucking (good chucking right now since both of them are on a hot streak).
Kenyon Martin is pretty much our perfect PF; plays amazing defense and rebounds damn well, although he has low bball IQ.
How many "pass first, high assist PGs" have lead their teams to les in the past decade?
Brooks was > than Lowry last year, He's > this year, and he'll be > as long as both are on the same team. You need to wake up and realize Houston will never win by just forcing the ball into a player who you can't force the ball into, because he can't beat a fronting defense no matter who's passing the ball.
I love Yao, but honestly it's getting to the point where I'd rather have him leave and play somewhere else so we (true Rocket fans) didn't have to put up with ass hats like you. People who can't see any of Yao's faults even it's leaving mushroom stamps all over their face. These idiots will blame everyone else on the team, without willing to even fathom the idea that their "idol" might have serious faults of his own.
I was so excited when we got rid of Tracy McGrady and the "Tracy Trolls". Now because of dumbasses like you I'm starting to warm up to the idea of letting Yao walk so we can get rid of all of these "Red" Yao yahoos. We might lose more games (not that many more though, because Yao misses atleast half a season now anyways), but it. The basketball IQ among the fan base will go up 10 fold.
LOL, Bosh is the perfect guy to put next to Yao....because when Yao goes down with a season ending injury, we'll have a go to scorer in the post. Or better yet...even if Yao is healthy and teams front his ass and completely take him out of the game late in crucial situations, we'll still have a elite go to scorer in the post/paint.
Kenyon Martin.
Yao's not leaving, sadly. All of the marketing he gets basically pays off his own contract and more.
While he is certainly not fit as a franchise player, teams will be lining up for Yao just because of the publicity that team can get with him when his contract runs out, including the Rockets.
You're name reminds me of how unstoppable the Rockets were at NBA2k7. Head was able to dunk, and T-Mac and Yao was unstoppable.LOL, Bosh is the perfect guy to put next to Yao....because when Yao goes down with a season ending injury, we'll have a go to scorer in the post.

Kenyon Martin.
Yao possibly leaving has NOTHING TO DO WITH HOW MUCH MONEY HE BRINGS IN.
Again......one more injury to that foot will put Yao into retirement. He even said so himself. So why wouldn't the Rockets start planning for basketball after Yao, just in case that exact scenario happens? (and that's exactly what Houston has been doing). They want Yao on the team, but they also know it's a very realistic possibility that his days are numbered.

I try to be civil on these forums, but this might be the most re ed thing I have ever read. Im insulted that a fellow Rocket fan can actually believe this. This isn't Yaos team.
Bosh would be the PERFECT fit for our team. His skill set is ideal for what Adelman is doing.
If there was a way to ignore his posts I would.
You could...you know, put him on your ignore list.
+1 for the Argie
Guys; I'm all for trading for Bosh since Brooks will most likely be part of the deal.
OMG cannot believe even you believe this drivel.
Oh and look there you go reversing your previous statement. Make up your mind already!!!
Brooks is top 20 in the NBA in scoring, he has the 2nd most points for a PG in the entire league.
The days of the true pass first PG are over, with the rules disallowing hand checking the perimeter scorers have a distinct advantage.
Lowry would suck balls if he had to pass to Hayes, Battier and Ariza, and he stinks in the playoffs when teams realize that he can't shoot the danged ball.
Witness his stellar 33% shooting last playoffs, when Brooks was leading the team past Portland and taking the world champions to a game 7.
Brooks is the answer, he has started only like 100 games, and is nearly 20ppg and 5 assists....his assists are now starting to go up, once they replaced one of the Battriza combo with Martin.
Martin and Brooks are the backcourt for the Rockets next 7 years.
Lowry, is a restricted free agent. What that means is that he could be used in a sign and trade for Bosh.
Sorry to burst any bubbles with the truth, but hey...it is what it is.
Maybe we could trade Yao for Bosh....that works....

Brooks = Monte Ellis
I'm sorry for judging Rocketfan based on noob cake, he's in his own class of re ed.
I agree, he's been critical to their success this season.
Yao's injury history is a major concern, and I for one am glad he is expiring next season.
The question is what to do with him? If he has a healthy season, he will demand a big contract, but man....we can not pay him big $$$ with his injury history.
I think there is a decent chance he might get traded.....I would trade Yao for Bosh now, or maybe Griffin of the Clippers.
Let him start over healthy somewhere else and let the Rockets go a different direction.
Now, if we keep him, fine, but he will be in a much smaller role going forward....and needs to work on his elbow jumper.....it is AB and KM's team now.

If Yao doesn't come back, then they would most likely somehow get Bosh, which they probably will even if he does come back. Point is, Yao has been run into the ground, mainly by the Chinese National Team
His games played stats:
02-03 played all 82 games
03-04 played all 82 games
04-05 Played 80 games
05-05 played 57 games
06-07 played 48 games
07-08 played 57 games
08-09 played 77 games
He was coming off injury once again when the CBA forced him to play in the olympics.
When has Kenyon Martin ever been the answer for anything?
please don't pay noon cake any attention
Stop hating, Kenyon is a rebounding role player. Players like that won't take us multiple picks + Aaron Brooks to get.
I bet Denver will swap us Martin + Picks for Brooks

Considering they are thin at big man and already have Billups and Lawson at PG that's a really re ed trade idea.
PS - Yao Ming has never accomplished as a franchise player.
