Rockets pick is good news folks. NOLA pick is the gem they want to keep. (Come on NOLA, get a buyer for Rivers so we can get this wrapped up)

At least someone at ESPN see's that it's not all about the Cavs and Lebron. http://espn.go.com/video/clip?id=espn:11203436

I think you guys are forgetting that Morey sucks and he can't close big names. Where the Morey haters at????????
Lakers in: Lin, Rockets 2015 first Pels in: Asik Miami in: Pels 2015 first, rights to Capela if necessary. Rockets in: Bosh, Lakers trash
i wonder what the hell hinkie wanted? Everybody was saying hinkie was helping us out. I knew he was looking out for nobody but his own prosperity
1st has protections! #morey <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p>In Lin deal, Rockets sending their first next season and a future, late second.

Wait, does this mean we can't do a sign and trade for Bosh anymore? I guess we still could using Asik's salary + filler. Maybe NOLA can dump Rivers on Miami and attach an asset to it in addition to assets we provide. I am guessing that would work. I know we can get a TPE too but not sure how that will work. I am really hoping for a sign and trade so we can keep Jones, Bev and get the MLE. Sign someone using MLE and/or LLE, resign Daniels and hope to hell we aren't over the hard cap line.
I dont think the Pelican Asik trade is official yet correct? Thus you cannot trade a pick you do not have.
