The Houston Rockets signed PG's Bob Sura, and Charlie Ward. I think this will help them big time. Tyrone Lue was going to be the starter, but now they got a decent role player in Sura to start. Charlie Ward is good coming off the bench. Overall good signings...

is bob sura a point guard? and, being a spurs fan i think charlie ward will fit well into van gundy's system. sura is a good fit to if he can play the point, if he plays like the way he did at atlanta (doubt it) houston got a big steal here.

Sura is great. I love Bob's style. He is more of a shooting guard but he can run the point since he has very good ball handling. The only problem if he starts is that he will steal the spot light from T-Mac.

Yea, I have always been a Bob Sura fan. He is a very underrated player in my book. As for Ward, well my fondess memory is P.J. Brown taking him back to his football days in the playoffs. Man that was a perfectly formed tackle!! ;D

They had it where he either plays great, or they really get it handed too them. In Houston, he won't even be an option with Tmac and Yao there. But, we will have to wait and see.

Yea, anything is better then Lue. He is horrible! If you go into the season and your starting PG's name is Tyrone Lue, you know your in for some trouble!

yeah, seriously. Although T-Mac would have balanced it out I think, since Lue is an alright pass-first point guard with good D. did you guys see what he did to Iverson in the finals 3 or 4 years ago?

The only thing I remember out of that was how he was holding onto AI's jersey for dear life and never getting called for a foul.
