    Lin is the only one that should cost us (maybe our NOP pick). Jones might get us a 2nd rounder. And someone should take DMo for free though might cost us a 2nd rounder.

    One of the best days of my life as a rockets fan. Couldn't be happier this is truly great for the city of Houston we deserve this.

    I want to say a thank you to les Alexander, DM the GM, James Harden and Dwight Howard. With out these 4 people this would not be possible.

    Let's go get that title guys.

    We're coming for u lebron.

    To keep Beverley he would have to take a slight paycut. Which I would hope he would be willing to do because surely he understands how important Bev is to the success of that lineup.

    THIS please. Otherwise we'd become the laughing stock forever if Bosh did not come...

    All it takes is 2 teams bidding for a player for this to not matter. Competition brings down the price

    it's a great story though...i do like how it's more than about basketball and that he's playing for a small market and building it. nothing more american than that baby.

    If those were the only things he was doing yes. The fact that he is also a big time scorer and rebounder and leader makes him far more valuable and more than worth it.

    And good for him, Cleveland has got the shaft on so many things, and in a few short months they get "their Johnny Football" back home and they took our Johnny Football.

    This information put out by Woj screams, HEY MIAMI WE CAN DO THIS WITHOUT YOU. So how about you take our 2nd round picks and we make a deal with Philly and NOP.

    We need a S&T deal with Miami. Send them Lin, a prospect, and our draft picks.

    Lin can help retain some of their lost fans and be a huge expiring contract next season.
    Prospect is prospect.
    We're in a win now mode. Draft picks wouldn't help us too much. It'll allow the Heat to get a fast track on their rebuilding mode.

    Bosh and Aldridge only faced each other once this year.

    Aldridge scored 22pts ,9-20 fg,7 reb
    Bosh scored 37 on 15-26 fg,10 reb.

    In 2013 they matched up twice.


    Aldridge 29pts 13-20 fg 5 reb
    Bosh 30 pts 11-15 fg 11 reb

    Aldridge 20 pts 6-19 fg 15 reb
    Bosh 29 pts 13-18 fg 4 reb

    Over the last two seasons Bosh has averaged 32 pts/game vs Aldridge. We'll be fine.

    I'm not saying he shouldn't be, it's just funny. He can barely contain himself. :grin:

    With so much needed to go down and fall into place. I am glad we have a GM that has such a punchers chance he is viewed widely as an odds on favorite to pull this off.

    This is no small feat of what Morey is trying to do....

    Most other GM's don't even enter the Morey realm of real life fantasy style General Managing.

    No wonder Cuban is jealous as a troll....

    expect to lose quite a bit - houston has NO leverage at all right now. if someone with cap room is asking for 1rd pick (even NOP) you gotta give it to them.
