A couple of new developments
Espn is reporting that the Nets have interest in Luis Scola. How could they not be after the way he destroyed them for 44 points on the road last season. I don't know what you guys think about this but, maybe a sign and trade? Aaron Brooks and Scola for Devin Harris and Terrence Williams? Maybe later on trade Battier for a second rounder to make room for Williams to play? I don't know I'm just throwing that out there. http://espn.go.com/blog/truehoop/post/_/id/17818/the-nets-plan-b
Another thing I saw was a four team deal where we would rid ourselves of Jared Jeffries and get Tyson Chandler. http://espn.go.com/blog/truehoop/post/_/id/17823/can-miami-pull-off-beasley-trade

First one is a bad trade in my opinion
Scola and Brooks fit in way more here in Houston than Harris and Williams
did he just say scola and brooks for harris and williams?
and then he said get battier for a 2nd round pick??
yeah...battier for a first rounder maybe....
the guy is still close to an allstar in my book. last season’s injuries aside the guy is great for team chemistry and identity, good spot shooter and defense.
defense baby defense, got to have it, is hard to find players willing to commit to playing it, got to have it
sign miller and do the trade for Chandler
awesome…if Chandler is expiring anyway it is MUCH better than Jefferies…
but i still think signing miller helps as well with Chandler:
Miller is cheap and knows aldeman and can spread the floor…perfect for hunting LA
ok so i screwed up with the Harris thing
my bad i stand corrected
GO ROCKETS, GO TEXANS, GO ASTROS (EVEN THOUGH THEY SUCK)!!!
i think i can handle him
we are the same size and we both from the hood so it would be a great match
GO ROCKETS, GO TEXANS, GO ASTROS (EVEN THOUGH THEY SUCK)!!!
no...I meant Lowry....but Landry is just as good
both tough as nails…but of course if you get crushed by Landry we could call you the ultimate insult: a Dirk type flopper
now Landry would kick my ass for sure
but i would give him the fight of his life. I will not back down just like our Rockets team
GO ROCKETS, GO TEXANS, GO ASTROS (EVEN THOUGH THEY SUCK)!!!
the rockets were not afraid of anyone of the elite teams
thats y we beat most of them. they dont know fear so i compared that to me. dont take it the wrong way

i am totally with you on the Scola-Brooks proposal but really no on Jefferies for Chandler.
Chandler is not the best center out there but he has decent D, shot blocking etc…and can at least dunk the ball easily around the rim…Jefferies give us good D but that is all…and this way we still have Ariza and Battier…both of which I hope we keep
we
better do the chandler deal cuz if we do are only weak position would be SF.. i dont like the first deal at all
weak position is SF?
that might be the weakest link on the team if that happens but it damn sure isnt a weak position.
With Battier,Ariza, and Bud
we are deep at the three, not weak. They all fit in well with our team.

i see
bud as more of a 2 than 3 and battier is only good on defense and can sometimes knock down the 3.. ariza is really are only threat at both ends of the court
Bud does not guard
shooting guards well enough to play the two, and Taylor is Martins backup. Thays why they fit our team so well cause thats all we need Battier and Ariza to do,play good d and hit the open shot.

we really dont have backups we have rotations
on paper we have backups but in the actual game bud will come in for martin sometimes while ariza or battier are in. sometimes ariza and battier are in when martin and bud sit down.
bud cant
guard 2 or 3s.. and your saying bud is gonna back up shane who is gonna be backing up ariza? i highly doubt that cuz if thats the case he will barely see any playing time.. the reason he got playing time last season is cuz he would come in when kmart was out resting..it might say taylor is backing up kmart right now but thats not tgonna be the case
I still believe
Battier or Ariza will be traded. And Martin arrived with less then two months left in the season, so Bud was not backing him up for the majority of the season. Taylor is improving, and they will give him a chance, because our owner did not spend that money too draft him,to not give him a good chance.

taylor
is gonna be are 3rd SG unless he proves it otherwise..
jared jefferies
is another one of our SF.. i doubt they would have 4 SF and only 2 SG but it makes more sense to have 3 of each
Daryl Morey made it clear
Scola isnt going anywhere
Pitch him a front-loaded offer sheet at your own peril, he said. We’ll tie you up for a week, and you’ll end up with nothing.
Net will definitely back off
the only
reason we played jefferies at PF last year is cuz we didnt have any size.. JJ natural position is SF
you cant
say hes “not a small forward, not one bit” cuz he played some SF for us last year lol
Mgaic
was 6’9’’ and thats not true PG height
GO ROCKETS, GO TEXANS, GO ASTROS (EVEN THOUGH THEY SUCK)!!!
he doesn't play like a PF
and you are what you play like and he plays like a SF. He just has PF size. Lebron is 6’8 260 and if you saw his size on paper you would automatically think PF until you see his style of play and that ultimately determines your true position. That doesn’t mean one can’t have the versatility to play another position.
GO ROCKETS, GO TEXANS, GO ASTROS (EVEN THOUGH THEY SUCK)!!!
We have no room at SF
So Jeffries is basically forced to play PF because of his size. Even if he plays it like a SF.
your height
doesnt make you your position.. jefferies even played SF for the knicks.. hes not really strong as a PF is suppose to be but he is real versitile for his size
and michael
you pretty much just proved what i said earlier
its cool man
we all make mistakes lol.. i just heard the bobcats signed tyrus thomas to a 5 year deal worth alot of money so they shouldnt be looking to go after luis scola anymore thats a plus
But the Nets will go after him...
so its gonna cost the Rockets at least 8 Million a year to keep Scola….
yea
but whats the deal with Lowry? He’s been quiet.
GO ROCKETS, GO TEXANS, GO ASTROS (EVEN THOUGH THEY SUCK)!!!
Scola and Brooks are the two best players in that trade.
Also, Battier is worth more to us than a 2nd round pick. You’re crazy.
Did you know Eric Berry was asexually produced by Chuck Norris?
