Hell yea!!!

The same site thinks we will offer Scola a contract as well, I dont know if we can now that we signed TT but if we can get both, it will be HUGE.

. Luis Scola (restricted, not signed): About to get an offer from the Charlotte Bobcats. The New Jersey Nets are talking to him and may make an offer. The Rockets can match any offer, but they also are very willing to use him as part of any sign-and-trade.

Regardless, I stoked we were able to keep TT!!

5 year for 40 million is a really good deal considering that Travis Outlaw got 35 million, Darko got 20 and Amir Johnson got 34 million.

TT is FAR better than any of those guy, so its a great deal imo for both player and team.

i like this move. We need to upgrade C/PG. Mainly pg..how would we go about doing that..idk.

We had to keep him, giving up a first for a guy for a few months would have been terrible.

We hopefully can get a vet pg, but I think what I have seen from Collins in the summer league. I bet he makes the team.

Awesome. Now I'm thinking though, how do we not start him after that contract?

We need to trade Diaw for something because I doubt he'll be happy coming off the bench (which would be kind of nice, he can backup PF and SF depending on our match ups).

Yea, TT probably needs to start but I dont know what he could get for Boris. At least we did something good this offseason.

Thank you lord. One less thing to worry about this off season.

I was pretty worried NJ would try to steal him away.

N.J. has nothing now sucks for them.

You read my mind lol.

Now we just need a solid big man or point guard.

[Jackson 5]

Good move, now we at least need a pg!

Carpanfan Keep updating us with whatever Scola news you can find.

If we can snag both this season there is no way we lose 40 games this year.

Yea, I really thought they would be big players this offseason. Not a whole lot out there that can help them.
