    To qualify further, he was around for 4 years. I'd think short term is 1-2 years with a stretch to 3.

    Fine, if I have to choose, I guess it's Mr. Houston(ian) himself, Gerald Green.

    The Rockets don't win that Clippers series without Josh Smith. Then who knows how this roster would look today. Maybe they trade Dwight Howard. Maybe they let Morey find another job.

    Clyde doesn't belong on this list.

    My favorite has to be Mike Harris from the JVG era.

    Why aren’t Jeremy Lin and Dwight Howard on the list?

    Still don’t like the poll
    Barkley and Drexler got here by huge trades
    That’s not short term
    I mean might as well put Tmac there too then

    Carlos Delfino might be one of my favorite rockets in recent years.

    I wouldn’t put Clyde in that list, come on now...there’s a distinct difference. Barkley neither.

    Short term favourites: Artest, Camby, Wafer, Boykins, Delfino and Garcia!

    I picked Artest because I don’t consider 3.5 seasons short term.
