@  jorgeaam : (28 October 2014 - 02:49 AM) Yeah, good luck to you too, Mario, I guess you are going to need it this year.
@  feelingsuper... : (27 October 2014 - 10:13 PM) Just wanted to say thanks and good luck to all the forum members in the Red94 Fantasy Basketball League. Also, don't forget to get your lineups ready tomorrow and if you have time get rolling on your team image. Have fun!
@  Drew in Abilene : (27 October 2014 - 02:51 PM) Houston Rockets General Manager Daryl Morey announced today that the team has waived Jeff Adrien, Earl Clark, Robert Covington, Akeem Richmond and guard Ish Smith. via NBA.com
@  2016Champions : (25 October 2014 - 05:59 AM) Jeremy who? Lol
@  rockets best... : (24 October 2014 - 01:16 AM) Nash should have quit 4 years ago
@  Cooper : (24 October 2014 - 01:15 AM) suns really sold high on him.
@  Willk : (24 October 2014 - 12:03 AM) sad to see nash's career end like this
@  cointurtlemoose : (23 October 2014 - 07:16 PM) Philly "doing it right" is a catch-22 when doing it right is completely sacrificing competitiveness for almost entire seasons. I see what you're saying, and it's not Philly's fault.
@  2016Champions : (23 October 2014 - 05:59 PM) I need more to go on to write something up. Just brainstorming right now. Monroe is more of a defensive plus at the 4 than the 5; I think the reason he played the 5 early on his because he couldn't shoot--no longer the case.
@  08huangj : (23 October 2014 - 12:28 PM) He just doesn't seem like a four to me, he started his career as a center. I also don't think that he'd be happy to be a backup and what does a very reasonable price mean. Maybe you can create a thread.
@  2016Champions : (23 October 2014 - 10:14 AM) Monroe would not only improve our starting 4 spot but also serve as a backup center.
@  2016Champions : (23 October 2014 - 10:12 AM) Should we go after Greg Monroe? He seems to have improved his midrange shot, and considering the likelihood he walks, we might be able to acquire him for a very reasonable price.
@  Buckko : (23 October 2014 - 04:31 AM) I have no problem with philly tanking. If you're gonna do something, do it right. They should be an extremely entertaining team in a few years.
@  Willk : (23 October 2014 - 01:23 AM) 2016 - I agree. I would rather see Canaan play than Ish
@  2016Champions : (23 October 2014 - 01:19 AM) Isaiah Canaan seems to get better with every game.
@  cointurtlemoose : (23 October 2014 - 12:09 AM) That said, Philly is ridiculous. It's entertaining on a level, but it's also out of hand. I was for the reform with the proposed percentages they voted on today. Surprised it didn't pass.
@  cointurtlemoose : (23 October 2014 - 12:08 AM) I think it's interesting Mr. Rick. It's kind of a give and take to me. I'm totally okay with teams intentionally going through a 'rebuilding' phase, and I don't think you want to erase that too much with something like the wheel idea.
@  rocketrick : (22 October 2014 - 10:32 PM) No Lipstick on this Pig........NBA GM's say without a doubt James Harden is the #1 SG and Dwight Howard is the #1 C. Probably more hate coming my way for mentioning. I would just like an occasional informative article on this site from time to time but I guess I just expect too much........
@  rocketrick : (22 October 2014 - 09:41 PM) Why the hate when I post something of consequence?

I was just thinking, I hope someone is working with Terrence Jones on his post-up defense because the Rockets are going to need it. Could Kenyon Martin be that guy?

    Martin would be a nice comp for Jones on the defensive end.

    According to Jonathan Feigen via the Houston Chronicles, Kenyon also went through a physical, indicating that he is also interested in playing.

      I'd rather have Martin as my 13th man then Joey Dorsey.

      I think its just a way to get vetern voice in the lockerroom without giving up a roster spot. aka juwan howard for the heat.

        I also read from that report that the rockets were not impressed with his physical. As in no go for a roster spot, possible assistant coach only.

          There's no pleasing you  :lol: .  If it would make us better, Morey should hire all the coaches.  All of them.  I don't think it would be bad for Jones to spend a few hours a day with Martin teaching him how to play NBA defense.  Plus, at his age you know he grew up watching Martin back when he was on the Nets--he would listen to him.  I say bring him on.

          @JG

          you're right....... there is no pleasing me as long as McHale is employed by the Rockets :lol: exactly how many people do we need to hold his hand? :lol: :lol: dang I think I might try to get in on this position coach thing. I can't be any worst than the knuckleheads who have tried it up to now :lol:
