I would hate to see head go, but if we were to get Roy and be able to sign Mike James back, he probably wouldn't get that many minutes anyways.
Getting Mike James back is outta the question. He felt like we betrayed him for a lesser talented player in Alston in which he was right. He isn't gonna come back to Houston. I like Head alot, don't wanna part ways with him.
^^^Mike has publicly expressed that he wants to come back to Houston, and JVG said he would love him back....the only thing getting in the way is money.
this is useless for us, head would just cause a log jam of wright/mccants/banks and stuff if we resign him.
It would be better for the Rockets to keep Head. I believe that he's gonna improve in the next few years. At #8 good players like Brewer, Foye, Carney and Shelden Williams are available.
Head can play a role similar to Devin Harris's in the playoffs. I can see Head hittin alot of big shots in future yrs to come.

Banks is all but gone to L.A.. Acquiring Head would be a good move on the part of the Wolves.
I don't know, Head doesn't really like to drive the ball hard into the paint, he likes to spot up for 3's cause he's got at making the treys. He's not lightning quick, but he does have like a 39 inch vertical that I'm not sure he uses.
