The Rockets should play it smart and not blow up cap space just because like the Pistons did when they signed Josh Smith out of desperation. Really think if that's their guy cause if they would have got a Bosh or a Memo dude probably would have been gone.
without parsons they don't really have a SF though

I don't know who else rejected the Rockets, but Chris Bosh made a terrible choice.

Turning down the 4 year max in Houston with Harden, Howard, and Parsons :blessed:
To spend 5 years with Udonis Haslem and the ghost of Dwyane Wade? :why:
fukk is wrong with that nikka? :mjlol:

He got his rings, time for him to get his money, I ain't mad at him.

I keep hearing that any star that's serious about winning should stay away from DHoward.. he's too much of a clown in an extreme type of way. Bosh playing with Bron and Wade- where those dudes were dead serious about winning then going to Houston to play with Crusty the Clown and Mr. Make it Rain wasn't the move apparently :manny:

:what:

Bosh made the right decision, he already won 2 rings now its all about the money...

Miami offered him more money (5 year max) and he doesn't have to move...

It's really that simple...

I agree with everything except the Raptors obviously made Bosh's career. Would they have been called the big three if no one knew who Bosh was?
I get what you're saying. He's the Raptors all-time leading scorer. I say that because he became a 2-time champion & solidified himself as a hall-of-famer with us

I ain't mad at him either, but he could've got money, won games, and flew under the radar in Houston.

In Miami he'll be a main piece with a below average supporting cast

Same thing we saw in Toronto
I'm glad he cashed out and got his bread :myman:but that opportunity in HOU sounded tailor made for him :ohlawd:

Seemed like a decently stacked team. Likely a better chance at a ring than Chicago, New York, or Miami. I mean yeah the east is weaker but if you can make it out of the west the ring is yours for the taking. In the east fools gold can make it all the way to the finals and implode there.

:what: *everyone* like who???

If you are an NBA player...why would you want to go play with a center who is clown, can't shoot free throws, has fred flinstone post moves, and tends to make bad decisions in the clutch...

While also playing with

Another guy who just shoot's 3's, flops, and gives no effort on defense...

The Rockets will fold up in the playoffs every year if for no other reason that Harden's flops will always turn into turnovers...

Did anyone really watch those last two games against Portland...even Plight Coward was giving Harden the :stopitslime::upsetfavre:
