Y'all arent getting Melo and even if you did, you'd just be adding another loser, to a team already filled with losers (harden, dawhite).
Rockets as currently constructed cannot beat the Thunder, and Clippers. However, the matchups in the playoffs look good for now. First round matchup with Portland and if we get past them, it's a second round match up with the Spurs a team that the Rockets have beaten three times now. But then it's either going to be the Thunder or the Clippers and the Rockets cannot get past either team.
As constructed, the team has weaknesses on the bench, guard position and power forward. It would be safe to say that a trade to jettison Lin or Beverly for a premier point guard would really help. Barring that, shoring up the PF position would be very helpful say...Melo.
Three players that Morey must absolutely jettison this off season is Caanan, Garcia, and Casspi. My God the suckage from those three is unbearable. A combined 6-26 against the Nets? I would rather see Covington brought up from the Vipers than to see these three suck this much. A trade with the Knicks giving up Asik, and Lin for Melo would be amazeballs! Lin could go back to be the ball dominating guard playing pick and roll and Asik gets his starting job back. Melo would shore up the Rockets PF position.
Still need a premier guard though. I suppose Beverly is ok and guards are a dime a dozen in the NBA. Getting Melo would line up our Big Three with Howard, Melo and Harden. Now we are talking!

I give us better than a 50:50 chance of getting Melo!

Could Carmelo Anthony rocket off to Houston?
According to a league source, the Rockets will make a bid for Anthony this summer, even though they probably won’t have cap space and would have to orchestrate a creative sign-and-trade. The source said Houston asked the Knicks about Anthony before February’s trade deadline.
The Knicks have held discussions with the Rockets about power forward Omer Asik. Even though Rockets president Daryl Morey is the pioneer of advanced statistics and Anthony has never fared well in some efficiency categories, Morey’s old-school instincts believe he could form a terrific Big 3 with Dwight Howard and James Harden. Rockets management also believes Anthony has made advancements in the grit department the past two seasons.
Sorry bro.. you aren't beating San Antonio period... No Beverly just makes it worse. You guys cannot hold a lead and it took Ginobili being injured and a horrible fourth quarter collapse to beat us this year.
Houston is San Antonio's Bane to Batman.
When was the last time you guys won the division? Even in your best year in years... you still sit almost 9 games back of us..
if it was a down year for Spurs I'd be cool with Houston winning but not this year. Sorry.
Besides, didn't Batman win that last fight with Bane?
You got one more chance to not get swept.

You're gonna be shinin' those shoes with us. & that right soon. I'll save a seat right next to me.
tee, hee.
I have no unrealistic expectations of this team. But getting past Blazers and the Spurs are in the realm of the possibleAfter that, I'll be happy to join you on our fishing trip lol
haha..But getting past the Spurs
Getting past the Spurs is not in the realm of possibility. like, it's not going to happen. I wouldn't be shocked if you guys got swept. That's what I think about your chances. You're better off rolling the dice and trying to beat LAC or OKC, because once you meet us, your season is over.I have no unrealistic expectations of this team. But getting past Blazers and the Spurs are in the realm of the possible
Kawhi is going to shut Harden down
What's sad is that they actually have theoretical match-ups they could exploit for a game or two.. but McFail is such a bad coach.. he's going to really get exposed in a seven game series by Pop.. it's gonna probably be as brutal as when Del Negro got exposed vs. Pop in the West Semi's in 2012.
Though it would be sweeter than pie should it happen. Me? I'd dance naked in the street.
, you'd have to commission another Thread to get me run off. tee, hee.
pls d12 beat SA
It's gonna be a long summer, Dale. You getting a fresh fishing rod?
Maybe I'm missing something, but how does Houston have "0 chance" of beating San Antonio?
Don't get me wrong, I hate the Rockets and would love for us to stomp on them in one last playoff run. But they have Dwight Howard, someone who averaged 17ppg/11rpg/2bpg on over 60% shooting last post-season despite the Spurs nearly triple-teaming him on every possession. Add in a Spurs-killing Harden and a boat load of outside shooters, Houston is a scary ass team in match-up for the Spurs.
I'm genuinely curious on why my fellow Spurs-fans think this Rocket squad will be a walk in the park.
All I'm saying is:::should it happen they'll be to pay. Stranger things have happened:::for example,,,just last June there was a team with their 5th NBA World le in a portable trophy case in South Florida when disaster struck. lmao!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yet we were still voted the most successful franchise since 2000..
lmvictoriousao!!!
I'm gonna have a fine time running my shine stand, doling out the Kiwi & brushes as the losers file in. Oh, yeah, gonna have me a fine time. I just pray I hand you one of each.
Congratulations. You keep that. Me? I'm keepin' the triple & 3 back-to-backs.
