    It's official, Smith was poison to Detroit. They look so much better without that lard in their line-up

    Hardly even similar. Detroit was a laughing stock with Smith. Toronto at least competed

    Although I like Rudy, I am not sure he is a good example. Toronto has the best record in the east without him and Sacramento although is better than their record.........is still under 500 with him. Memphis also improved without him. I would say the jury is still out on him.

    Not saying that Smith will improve the rockets as Gay improved the Kings, but the fact of the matter is the Rudy Gay trade improved both teams, and since the Smith Trade both teams have won all of their games. Very small sample size, but some people here have it in their mind that the rockets drop to 8 or something because of Smith. Toronto was 7-12 before Gay, and went 13-6 after. Granted the Kings didn't improve Much, but they also were not winning without Gay.

    Honestly the claims that Dmith is going to destroy the rockets is absurd. If that happens then it's more Fire onto my theory I've been peddling for the past year. That front office will almost have to be cleaned if they don't ditch smith before he destroys that team. That being said I don't think he will, I think they will be better, and unlike mags I really hope we don't have to play them in the playoffs.

    Smith wasn't traded. He was waived.

    I wish the refs would punish him for flops like that all season. It's sad when players can get away with shit like that

    There ain't a chance SAS lets green go. He's probably their second best wing
