Basically Eric Gordon 2.0
Unless the Rockets saw the offersheet and took the opportunity to get him as a trade chip. If that was the case, then it's a smart move. Cold blooded, but smart.
Bad move by the Rockets, they already have a log jam, why add D-Mo when he's only going to ride the bench unless multiple injuries occur?
Feel bad for him because he actually would've gotten to show his game in BK.
Knowing Morey, it's definitely that.
Win and he chose the Celtics? Hustling backwards.Rockets Were Al Horford's Second Choice In Free Agency
Al Horford met with four teams at the Four Seasons Hotel in Atlanta during free agency.
The Houston Rockets went first, followed by the Washington Wizards, Detroit Pistons and Boston Celtics. Horford had met with the Atlanta Hawks prior to that.
James Harden was in on the meeting with Horford for the Rockets.
“I thought we had a chance,” Harden said on Monday. “I thought we had a really good chance, but obviously it didn’t work out, which is fine.”
Horford said he seriously considered signing with the Rockets.
“I really considered coming here as well,” he said of Houston. “Them and Boston and Washington, but especially here and Boston, were probably the two teams I was really, really looking at. So, just a lot to consider. A really good team, but at the end of the day I just felt like I was better off being in Boston.”
Horford prioritized signing with a team capable of winning immediately and eventually winning big.
“He’s just a great player,” Horford said of Harden. “They have a great organization here and I was very impressed with them…I just think overall I had a better fit here with the Celtics, with our depth here and coach and just everything. There’s just a lot of things that went into my decision.”
