Because you have us sending out valued assets for an undesirable package that kills our future cap flexibility.

The Rockets have no interest in a horribly inefficient Big Baby on that contract…We don't want him for free, much less give up Motiejunas and Delfino for him. And to make matters even worse you're also dumping Harrington on us, whose remaining half of his contract WE'D have to pay and also counts against our future cap space...

Sorry, but this is just atrociously bad for Houston. (And Minny too btw).

This team needs another scorer. I still like Cousins on this team with his post presence, but unfortunately it looks like Sacto (Seattle) covets him as an asset to deal with later.

Regardless, I expect Houston to make a move by the deadline to strengthen the 3 and/or 4 spots.

Yes please

Offseason sign millsap (i know hes jazz, but hes from louisiana and he played at la tech so he gets a pass[this same logic does not apply to Karl "horrible father/rapist" malone]) and Bledsoe resign delfino and either jjreddick or Icelander...Lin=6th man. Trade some collection of our pfs for picks or more capspace if we need it for these deals

Bledsoe/harden/parsons/millsap/Asik
Lin/dougie or reddick/delfino/jones or motie or morris/smith


Is this possible? I want this to be possible

Beverley > Bledsoe.

Just trade Lin and/or Douglas.

And let him be traded to another team. Don't want Smith as Rocket specially with the contract some idiot owner will throw at him. Now if it is Horford then I am interested

Paul Millsap and Mo Williams are both expiring. They also happen to be very very good fit on this offense and they both should be very much available.

I was on the Beverley bandwagon before the Mavs game though. Actually before the Clippers game, too, but there was no poll then. Just saying. 8-)

I always liked him whenever I saw him play in Europe. Looked good in the few D-League minutes I saw him play, too. Guy just goes hard no matter what. Always keeps his head up and never blames anybody but himself. Gotta love him.

Oh and FOL means [4 letter word] our lives. Of course it's only a matter of time before TMU changes his name to PBU. ;)

Who needs Royce White's Bus when x- is driving the Patrick Beverley Bandwagon? :lol:

Did anybody hear that the Lastros blocked a deal with Direct Tv that would aired Rockets game at the beginning of the season. Hear it twice on the radio
