    This is what i got from the post.
    -Conley and Harden are close friends
    -Les wants a legit PG (Conley or Rondo???)
    -Les is willing to pay for a legit PG but, for a certain amount
    -Guessing the guy that played in Utah in the past is Millsap
    -Least Favorite Phoenix Sun player?? Tyson Chandler? Chase Budinger?

    If Millsap is seriously being shopped, I'm on board. I'd rather have him than Horford, and he's the ideal 4 the Rockets have needed for years. Maybe the Hawks are looking for a Horford/Dwight front court, which leaves Millsap as the odd man out in Atlanta? That certainly makes sense.

    I definitely think the Suns player is Chandler. He referred to backup bigs, the fact that it's a player who thrives in the pick and roll and that he'd be willing to play on the cheap to get back to a roster that plays to his strengths. That screams "Tyson Chandler" to me. I'd love Chandler in a backup capacity for the right price.

    I wouldn't mind Parsons and Conley teaming up in Houston. Anywhere else, I do mind.

    Chandler is in a contract already- you would have to trade for him.

    I think hes talking about Amare stoudemire

    D'Antoni has lost his mind, if he thinks Amare can do anything productive.

    I think he's very serviceable as a backup. We'd still need a 3rd C since Amare never plays a full season.

    #1) Sounds like Mike Conley to HOU could be legit. Not just leverage.

    #2) PAUL MILSAP?! Former Bird. Used to hate him while he was on Jazz..
    Sounds like Paul Milsap is in play. I've wanted him on the Rockets for a while now.

    #3)Former BiRDs. Not sure with the caps and lowercase letters. With Codman, it could be intentional. Milsap would be the former ATL bird. I guess Anderson is the former NO bird. So Anderson is in the serious mix w/ FA talks... also he says "Fly Ry" is going to listen.

    #4) "As his my personal friend BBAss" Brandon Bass (Do. Not. Want.)

    #5) Harden having a heavy role in FA talk is really helping us. Despite the BSPN hate barrage, Harden is at the top of the In Crowd. That's good.

    #6)Thunder Assassin "Honey Dijon" has to be Dion Waiters.

    #7) Hated former sun that wants his old role back and master PnR....Amare Stoudemire??????

    #8)JVG mantra of bringing back guys. Hi. Mr. Brazil - Leandro Barbosa

    #9) Kevin Love on the trade block. Corey Brewer could help get it done? Wow.

    #10) We don't want Nerlens, we would want Okafor.

    Kent Bazemore
    Ryan Anderson
    Eric Gordon?
    Paul Millsap
    Hassan Whiteside
    Brandon Bass
    Dion Waiters

    Most of it appears to be straight forward. Thanks Cod. All the best to you!

    Pretty much this, but you missed Afflalo former Nugget. I could really get on board with Millsap, Afflalo, Barbosa!!Conley is not coming. Hell to the NO to Amare freaking Dudmire or Waiters. Love or Bass doesn't move me. Okafor is whatever.

    I love this option - I really wanted us to sign Milsapp when he left Utah (and got that crazy cheap contract from Atlanta). He's a good all around PF with a legit outside shot and good D. He's not a rim protector, but we should be ok with him paired with Capella.
