How about signing Pippen to be our backup PG?

If the Rockets ever somehow got so confused that they signed Pippen, I would fly to Houston, by a ticket to the game, charge the court and break both his kneecaps. Then I would tell him it was Barkley's fault.

 

I was really disappointed that we traded Padgett for a back-up C when Charles Jones is available.

 

Probably Scottie still keeps in good condition, probably he can still contribute on court for 15 minutes, but we do not need him, for the sake of a good team atmosphere & player morale.

And i doubt that Jeff can get along well with him.

 

barkley getting in shape???LOL he looks more out of shape now as each day passes

 

Of course you are right. Why don't we sign other of the "NBA50 greatest"without giving anything up, for example: Bill Russel, Abdul Jabbar, Magic, Bird.

I didn't want pippen on our team when he was still able to play basketbal, so there is no way i want him on our team now

 

How high does this rank on the "worst threads ever" ranking .

 

Pippen might me a little slow knowing he hasnt been playin in the league for a couple of years...but...he could solve our back up PG issue...andd we need to trade spanoulis

 

If we are looking for an old PG why not go all the way - Oscar Robertson?

 

I dont think it is really going to matter one way or the other. Pippen would not sign here. He knows better.

The only thing that will make this better is when he signs with the Heat and the Rockets whoop his ass in the NBA Finals.

 

that would be pretty sweet.

 

how has this thread not been LOCKED yet?????????


Quitten?????????

 

Pippen couldn't run a team when he was here the first time. What makes him think he could do it this time.

 

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I'm shocked at all the negativity for NBA legend Scottie Pippin.

 

I am a Rookie. Reading through the replies, I get an impressure Pippen did sth. VERY bad to Rockets in the past, isn't it?

 

You're joking right? Pippen is probably the most hated ex-Rocket of all time so what kind of reaction would you expect amongst a ton of Rockets fans?

What would be worse? Signing Pippen or trading for Eddie Griffin?

 

WOW....this thread isn't locked yet?!?!?!?!?!

 

You think we could still get Eddie !?

 

Haha it's more of a hypothetical "Which move would crash the BBS quicker?" question.

 

F**K Pippen! I never want that @$$hole in houston. I'll take Flyin' Ryan Bown over him.


Besides, dont you remember how much he would get booed by our fans when he left houston and played with the blazers? Just say NO!
