    Rockets player haters can go Root for the Warriors. They deserve it, but not our team.

    Let's see what he can bring to the team that needs much needed help in the PG position. You know he will at least on the other's team skin for some strange reason;) Go Rockets! H-Town Crazy!!

    He fits a position of need, and he can shoot the 3ball - as a backup PG, or starter when CP3 is out? What is not to like?

    Yeah, I agree. He might be the exact fit to our guard rotation, enabling our stars to rest their legs more without relying on players with much less experience or skill.

    I hope you are eating those words by the end of the season, and that should leave a real nasty taste in your mouth.

    This year's team is not the tight knit group they appeared to be last year, it's pretty much a bunch of chopped liver...and a Luby's Luann plate at that. I don't think he can make the chemistry any worse so I welcome anyone that can help the team and hope for the best, looking forward to seeing him in action tomorrow against the Thunder and I hope he turns a lot of haters into accepting his role on the team.

    Rivers will improve this team. He is better than what the Rockets were throwing out there this season.

    Harden Paul Gordon and Rivers is more than adequate at the G position.

    He actually played some good defense. I was surprised. Still not the biggest fan but a win is a win, all that counts and he positively contributed.

    Austin Rivers is the white Chandler Parsons. Both are douches from the Orlando area who wear #25. If they help us win, I'd root for both douches.

    Parsons is a joke. Don't use this soft **** to compare. Austin can hit 3 point which can replace Ariza. After Ariza left, we lost a 3 point shooter. His c*m shoot makes thunder obsolete

    I was all disgusted when Jason Terry joined the Rockets, but that quickly erased when the Jet started draining those three's.
    I'm hoping this will be similar.
