    So this is what Les meant when he said they wanted to be "predatory"....


    Well if they didn't have a pick available why didn't they take the Laker's pick for 500k lol...

    I have to think that the Rockets WILL get atleast a pick in the 1st round.

    Reasoning: They turned the pick from the Lakers for cash considerations. Morey has been talking about buying a pick in this draft. Turning down this pick means one of two things to me a.) no one was at 29 we would want for the price or b) that we have plans to move up higher at some point tonight.

    B is what I am hoping/telling myself... :confused:

    we'll probably swoop in and get someone that won't make the team.

    No Amare, the worst part is Mcgrady is still a Rocket, and now who can we trade him for?

    Teams were pursuing Tracy McGrady so aggressively that they all tripped over each other trying to get him.

    i hope that kind of sociopathic hyperbole doesn't make other GMs too skeptical of morey going forward. talk about blowing smoke out of your ass...
