Houston Rockets Thread - Preseason vs Spurs (Friday)

I'm pretty sure you can't combine players with a TPE. you can't just add the 8M TPE to Beverley's salary to get to 9 million.

Now we could use that TPE on someone like....LeGoran.


Dwight out tonight, we're gonna get washed. Also, Terrence Jones just got feeling back in his toes apparently.

Glad they saw my post and fixed things. But still. Up 18. Need to close that out. Dallas missed free throws to open that up.
And why did Chandler Pasons get a tribute video?
 
Parsons got a vid cause you should have got one. He provided good service for us and at the high rate guys get traded here, he was the longest tenured guy here during that time. **** him though til he's back here in 2019. The real question is why did Lin get one :lol: May as well do one for Jordan Hill and Kevin Martin.

I'll update stuff tomorrow
 
Three years of good play doesn't get you a video. 10+ years of great play gets you a video. But that's just my opinion.
 
Video? They should have handed out batteries and urine bombs to throw at him for being a prissy little ******* *****.

I agree, but what Rockets players have had lengthy tenure here in recent years? Luis Scola and Shane Battier were each here for 5 years. Were they not appreciated and loved here? That's why I didn't mind it, even though Parsons can eat a ****.

@HoustonRockets: Dwight Howard (strained right knee) & Patrick Beverley (strained left hamstring) are both out tonight vs New York.
 
nick johnson not sniffing minutes unless terry, canaan, harden, and daniels all day. only then will be listed as a backup with mchale
 
Down 2-3 starters for the past few games, we have to play SOOOOOOOO HAAAARRRRRD against some of the worst teams to get a victory :lol: :smh: My guy Harden :smokin Dude has been a two-way player in every single game, yet people want to gif 2 seconds of a game and assume that's how he's been playing the entire season. Lame. Though Dorsey & Tarik didn't score much, I loved how active they were. D-Mo showing up again was nice as well. Garcia and Terry made a couple plays, but I still faceplate at them getting so many minutes over Canaan and Daniels. Canaan did have a hot start though. Ariza's defense :pimp: :pimp: he's been in a bad slump offensively, but his D has been so on point.

If anything, the fact that we are playing so hard to get the W is something that has been missing for sometime. Coulda easily let up and played down to the competition like in years past, esp after coming off a big winand the kings coming in town Wednesday.
 
Hmmmm, that's a good way to look at it. That type of hustle and grit can definitely come in handy down the road.

Also, I'm watching the Mavs/Rockets replay, and I'm dying laughing at Dirk's reaction to the foul Harden drew on Parsons :lol:. Dirk has turned into such a ***** since he won his that title. The nerve of him to do all that whining after that foul when he's been doing that same shoulder-into-the-chest jumper foul draw for almost 20 years now.

I really hate those blown leads, but a win is a win. D-Mo and Canaan showing that we could actually have a bench by the time Howard, Bev, and TJones gets back :smokin D-Mo is capable of playing like this every night. Not sure what has gotten to him lately, but it would be amazing if he could sustain this. We already know that Canaan should get more PT. Harden slumped late, but he was still a big reason why we won in the first place, making key shots at the right time. And once again, Pretty Papa didn't have much as far as stats, but he was all over the floor again. Ariza's defense is still fantastic, but even though he had 13 points, that shooting percentage needs to go up.
