Rockets to re-sign their free agent guard Francisco Garcia to a two-year deal paying $2.6 million, a source tell Y! Sports.

Cost efficient, looks like he taking a discount by half.

EDIT: MORE THAN HALF, read it wrong wow. Big Discount

How can one so deep into analytics, have someone with a coaching style like McHales...

McHale was the only one who would let Morey put his replacement on the bench. Chris Finch will be our next HC. Plus McHale was a selling point for Dwight.

LeBron loves his girlfriend. There is no other woman in the world he’d rather have. The problem is, Dwyane’s not a woman.

Good resign.

I liked Garcia last year. Will be a good role player and he really did take a discount.

Dwight Howard's four-year, $88 million maximum contract agreement with the Houston Rockets will include an early termination option after the 2015-16 season and a 15 percent trade kicker, league sources told Yahoo! Sports.

He nets more money in Houston due to taxes. Not saying he did it for the money (Houston has a much better roster) but enough of this "left money on the table" crap

The endorsement potential has to still be significantly higher in LA than Houston. I mean, he'll be able to hang out with George W Bush and a bunch of rich oil barons, but it's no Hollywood.

Not quite sure why anybody is excited to have a 32 year old broken down Cisco on their team, but for only $2.6M for two years I guess wouldn't complain either.

I'm going to guess that Brandy calling another country a bunch of barbarians will get him banned at least 2 weeks

It's too bad Bynum the Maverick will happen before that

He was anything but broken down in the playoffs and he is a tremendous locker room presence, not to mention a class act. I knew he wanted to come back to Houston but they got him for much less than he was worth.

Tough talk from someone named "Jodie." And his last name is "Meeks!" Is there a more feminine name than Meek Jodie?

Give him a full season.

He'll disappoint you soon enough.

And he's not worth anymore than $3M/yr at this point. I am surprised to see him take half that much though.

Basically every teammate he has ever played with has sung his praises about how good he is for chemistry and morale. The Rockets will be getting their money's worth for that alone.

It would break my heart to root against him and some of the other Rockets players if they see the Nets in the finals.

There was a bidding war for Wright but I think that bidding war was about 4 teams saying "we have a MLE come play for a playoff team" where as Portland offered more.

Only Kobe's most delusional fans think he's the "most beloved Laker ever".

Shit is amazing.

Yea his mid-range does need work, as shown here, but his biggest issue is the amount of 3's he shoots. That needs to be cut to three attempts per game and then take those shots into the 3-9, 10-15ft range for a floater/jumpshot off a pick n roll. Also, that 5.7(at the rim) needs to be be in the high 6's, low 7's. Him learning to play closer will go a long way into getting that FG% way above 43%. Dwight is gonna be huge for his game as long as he doesn't settle on 3's.

FG% is a bad stat. His TS% is .600, which is around where KD and Lebron were until they became godlike this season. He's already crazy efficient for a high volume scorer.
