    The guy will average 21/7. In this economy, this is the price you now pay for players like Ryan Anderson. It's not an amazing signing, but it's not this world-ending horrendous deal some are wailing about.

    It's official; the Houston Rockets have become a bad organization. This is the kind of deal bad organizations do. Let's hear it for Les and Daryl!

    You're kidding yourself if you think many on this board wouldn't complain if the Rockets didn't make a move in the offseason the fans do it every offseason when other teams sign guys early and the Rockets don't

    It's not a bad deal. People were thinking he'd get a max offer.

    Happy we landed someone that fits perfectly.

    would rather have gone for leuer or teletovic. this is a waste.

    this doesn't even move the needle for us. we need another playmaker on the perimeter. either a PG or SF....

    Boban Marjanovic had the third highest Player Efficiency Rating this past season:

    1. Curry
    2. Durant
    3. Marjanovic
    4. Westbrook

    League rules say that Marjanovic can't receive more that 5 Million next year and San Antonio can match any offer, but you can backload a deal like Houston did to get Lin from NY. I'd backload a deal for 20 Million a year for 3 or 4 years.

    It's a high risk, but what if he is the third best player in the league? Do you let SA get to keep him another year for 2 Million?

    This is barely a 500 lineup; no idea what people are smoking but I'm about to load my bowl.

    In my book, trading Dwight for Ish Smith would have been a net positive.

    Rockets finally have a true shooter and at the 4 position its a solid signing as far as fit and what the rockets do. Not a splash but an improvement

    If Parsons can get 94 million, nothing is wrong with giving RA 80 million. It's the market people! Dude is a Dirk-Lite!

    you want to be the team that signs Ryan Anderson for 80 mil, not the team that does smart small good value signings

    The sad truth is, we are just a fringe playoff team. Harden will leave in 2018
