@  slick shoes : (23 September 2015 - 06:37 PM) kind of late in the day but NBATV is broadcasting classis Rockets games all day today.
@  SadLakerFan : (16 September 2015 - 04:37 AM) Man, as a Laker fan, I'm learning how little you care about the off season when your team sucks. Anyway, a quick moment to remember Moses. Still remember watching the 81 team as a kid - losing record, NBA Finals. I would have cried w/joy if they could have beaten the Celtics.

@  thejohnnygold : (14 September 2015 - 04:36 PM) A good article from Blinebury talking about when Hakeem and Moses used to play in the park. LINK
@  rockets best... : (14 September 2015 - 02:29 AM) I agree totally. I got to watch his Rocket days and the man was a hell of a player. BIG MO R.I.P.
@  Mario Peña : (13 September 2015 - 05:24 PM) Sad to see Moses pass. I don't remember watching him as a Rocket but I do remember his Philly and Hawks teams. He was the perfect man to mentor Dream. It's a very sad day for his family and friends and there are many.

@  Losthief : (03 September 2015 - 02:26 AM) theres more articles all over, but the jist is houston (and texas) doesn't really arrest for it, they just recommend you leave it in your car when they catch it. So seems dwight got lucky he was in texas and not cali or the NE.
@  Losthief : (03 September 2015 - 02:22 AM) honestly we should just be glad they caught it...

#48820 Buying a Championship.

Posted by redfaithful on 04 August 2015 - 10:33 AM

There are too many players on this team's rotation that either started their NBA career here (Bev, DMo, TJones, Capela) or chose playing here when they had real options elsewhere (DH, Ariza, Brewer, Thornton). That's not buying a championship, that's running a good organization that uses money in the best way.

#43008 What's left on the market for the Rockets?

Posted by redfaithful on 22 July 2014 - 07:55 AM

The current rotation contains 5 good back court players and 3 good big men, with a few unknowns after that. And most importantly, no over-paid players. IMHO the best plan for now is to roll with these guys, keep the financial flexibility, and watch for other teams to change their plans in January. The options available at that time will be much better than the ones available now.

 

For example, Bledsoe has put himself in a tough situation, and there's probably no way for the Rockets to get him without losing significant players. However, if he remains with Phoenix on a smaller contract and things go wrong for them, by January they could be more than willing to make a change and the Rockets get him with a better contract for the team.
