Rockets to sign Dale Davis?

Scola cant stay out of foul trouble. We need to get bigger. Can't hurt us.

i want Harris on the roster. he gives us a lot of what bonzi did. if we face golden state we might have to play some "small ball" with harris and landry together at the 4/5 on some occasions.

novak is a great decoy or buzzer beating option

brooks is great at breaking the press and handling the ball but seems to have lost his shot. i would leave off brooks since Head can play some PG and Tracy handles the ball a lot too.

I like this move, but I thought I heard that Dale Davis was about to sign back with the Pistons?

They were going to re-sign Dale but changed their mind when Theo Ratliff became available w/ his buy-out.

wow he's almost as old as Deke. Lets hope he still can play . I remember when he was with the Pacers with rik smits and his brother antonio davis and reggie miller. Those were the days,

NICE !!!

I think this a solid move by Morey. Dale Davis might be old but hes definately a favorite of mine. I have always wanted to see him in a Rockets uniform.

Solid move, he's experienced and still a decent defender and that's needed in the West, even if it's just for 6 more fouls. Should contribute more at this point than Justin Williams, though I would have liked to see some more of what he's got, but we're obviously going in a different direction.

Why don't we go after Shawn Bradley? It would give T-Mac someone to practice his dunks on. Just a thought.

I think you're thinking of Antonio. Dale is pretty tall. Like 6'11 or thereabouts.

Bring dream out of his retirement. I'm sure he can still contribute.
