Harden is fat, he's on the Melo diet, his lovehandles are ridiculous, Houston we have a problem, predictably unclever attempts at being funny, etc...

...shenanigans.
We watched the tragedy unfold. We did as we were told, we bought and sold. It was the greatest show on Earth...but then it was over.

no idea
saw this on Rockets facebook page

Mario Elie 2.0???

it's his # in Phoenix (no one is wearing #17 when he signed, he can wear #17 last season)

or someone wearing #4 in coming to Houston

return of Luis Scola?
players wearing #4 in 17-18 season
Paul Millsap
Arron Afflalo
Tyson Chandler

Isaiah Taylor was still on the team when Tucker signed (Taylor was wearing #17)

looks like MCW has improved his 3pt shooting. He is working hard on it this summer.

i don't know how you can tell he improved his shooting
it's highlight from his practice
remember Terrence Williams?
he beat Dragic in shooting practice
did it transfer to the actual game?

at least MCW was rookie of the year. he actually has some real talent. we shall see, but it looks promising. also, cp3 can help him get many open looks.

his career is going downhill since his rookie season
all i know is if MDA wants a 3rd guard it will be Gordon ahead of MCW
if MDA wants a spot up shooter it will be Green ahead of MCW
i don't know about his defense but Morey said he's a good defensive player
there's a break down video on youtube saying Philly sacrifice win and allow him to stat pad to jack up his trade value

If MCW works out even for a few minutes off of the bench then it is a great signing.

If it doesn't work out at all, it won't hurt the team for trying.
