2018 FA - The Other Guys

Post #1 » by **Mr. E** » Thu Jun 14, 2018 5:25 pm

Last season the big name for the Rockets was clearly Chris Paul. His impact on the team was undeniable, and if not for an injury there could have been a different result to this past season. But that said, the Maestro was not the only impact signing last season.

P.J. Tucker
Luc M'Bah a Moute
Gerald Green

Just three guys who came in and helped to completely alter the team identity in a way that most were not prepared. Looking back at last season while most were focused on Melo, it appears that the Rockets were focused on P.J. & Luc.

So, who are some players in that mold who the Rockets could go after this off season?

I'll start with noted Rockets-killer, and Top 5 All-Time talent (when playing the Rockets), J.J. Reddick.

He would fit in perfectly with this team. Plus, it would drive Dallas fans absolutely crazy.

Who are you thinking about?

I think Rodney Hood might be an undervalued asset...should the Rockets find their roster/bench depleted for some reason. :wink:

Reddick would fit just fine, but he will likely cost too much $
