I really have all the confidence in the world in Darryl Morey keeping the Rockets competitive. MIT grad and all about sabermetrics. He's like Billy Bean in Oakland except we have plenty of money to spend.

assuming the money is equal there is no way he leaves south beach IMO, where he is an absolute star, to come play in Houston. Bosh is a different story.


Rockets won't go after Bosh. There is no need for a 4 on this team. They need a scorer. D wade is the Miami Heat but the chance to win is much better in Houston than Miami if Yao and co... is resigned. It will come down to D Wade wanting to stay home and take the money or go somewhere he can win soon.

He is on the cover of ESPN's NBA section right now with a title that says "Rocket's Scientist".


ETA: He has been replaced with Shane and Ron on the cover of the whole site... Nice

There's one Duke player that had his arse kissed up and down by Dick Vitale when he should've.

Let's bet your house then. I can see losing but by 30 is a far stretch.

This morning, full price offer on the home from yesterdays showing. God has decided to make this a good day for TEXASTIGER22. Also Astros will beat Colorado... Book it!!!


well apparently God let you sell your house so you wouldnt kill someone after what your two teams have done today.

Although they still have a chance in this one. Even though they looked really good sunday, playing without a great player like Yao will never help in the long run.

And even though you and I have never gotten along. Congrats on the house thing I know how complicated that can be.

You shoulda bet the house cause this one might end up being a 50 pt arse whooping......and it aint because of the refs its because the lakers are out of the rockets league no matter what happened yesterday......I will admit that brooks looks like the real deal though

technically I can't collect because they lost by 40! Damn. I'm not happy about it so I can really gloat. I hate the Lakers with a passion I have just seen too many of these series to know how they usually unfold. There is no excuse though to lose by 40 points to anyone with or without Yao.
