What's Left!


I was just looking over the free agent big men and noticed that there is not much talent left. Not one player jumped out at me as a good fit. The best left overs were Drew Gooden, Channing Frye (I think he just resigned with the Suns), Chris Wilcox, and Antonio McDyess. If I had to choose between the four it would have to be Drew Gooden, but that would be for a one or two year deal and not more than $3 million a year. I thought about Big Baby also, but he is the same size as Scola and Landry. I wanted to get your thoughts on who the Rockets should sign to play center this year.

Here is the link to the free agent list: http://www.nba.com/freeagents/2009/

I believe Morey said

that he was going to assess the issue through trading, but was also looking into signing a new free agent in the next week or 2. I’m assuming he must be signing a guard because those are somewhat contradictory statements to make.

I remeber him saying both comments

McDyess signed with the Spurs, missed that one somehow.

As I recall

the idea was to get a starter via trade and a backup via free agency

Is Brad Miller avalible?

Beside Gortat, Brad was my favorite center I though the Rockets should sign. He is a gritty player as anyone who watch the Bulls-Celtics series would know and I think he would fit in nicely

OH NO Antonio!!!

I think Antonio McDyess would have been perfect for a gritty Rockets center but it is no longer possible. Chris Wilcox is about the last center still available and I don’t know him well – does he have the toughness to get it done?

Marc Gasol from Memphis

Would be perfect for the Rockets
