    Didn't we just sign Pippen when we had to trade Chris Paul ?

    Yeah, if Pippen vs Westbrook in a 3 point contest, nobody would win

    Thanks for hat one month Russ. But when Scottie ****ing Pippen's tenure in Houston was more of a success than yours I'm glad to see you go.

    No it wasn’t because we didn’t make it out for the first round with Pippen

    Debatable that the rockets don't make it out of the 1st round last season without Westbrook.

    He didn't have a great game 7, but he did put up 20 pts and 9 Reb on 9-20 fg. Behind roco's and gordon's 21pt.

    Why does a guy who was willing to not report to training camp get an appreciation thread?

    This would be a good topic for a poll: Whose addition was worse for the Rockets - Westbrook or Pippen? Westbrook cost us several future picks, whereas Pippen cost us the last good year of Hakeem's prime and our last title shot of that era.
