    YOu would have to way overpay. If Gasol wants money he'll stay in LA, if he wants to win he goes to OKC/ San Antonio.

    Houston doesn't provide the most money, or the best chance to win.

    We were going to overpay for Bosh too.

    We can probably pay more than SA/OKC.

    The trade kicker for Parsons isn't actually 15%. It's ceiling is the absolute max for that player. Since Parsons gets the max anyway, it will only increase by the difference between the max for future years(if the cap goes up) minus Parsons salary of that year(which rises by 4.5% each year).

    Besides, it really doesn't matter. Parsons will opt out in 2 years and the Rockets can go after Kevin Durant that season. At least he won't mind switching cities and he'd be pretty tight playing with Harden.

    1) You call Minnesota. Love is probably headed to Cleveland, but it's worth a call.

    2) You call Boston. Rondo is probably on the market. Try to work a 3 team deal with Ryan Anderson and Rondo coming to Houston.

    3) YOU DO NOT OVERPAY FOR LUOL DENG, PAU GASOL, OR TREVOR ARIZA.

    Harden/Daniels/Johnson
    Parsons/Garcia
    Gasol/Jones/Covington
    Howard/Motiejunas

    It's evident to me that we're not getting any big names. I say we try to sign a decent PG (Augustin?), get some wing depth, and maybe even let our rook Capela take a backup C role (I think Dwight could teach him a few productive things; plus I just want to see this dude play).

    I can't really imagine a dream situation anymore...

    Next year isn't lost. We lost this year because of coaching, and chemistry.

    I never want to see Jordan "girlie hair" Jordan running around in a Rockets uniform ever again. Lance who? Don't match Parsons.

    I just threw up in my mouth a little more. Blind faith can be cute sometimes though.

    Piss off. It's not "kind hilarious," moron. It sucks. We love the Rockets and this was a kick to the junk because it was all plausible and it collapsed before our eyes. You want to make some not-very-witty remark now? My response to you? Die.

    Any guesses on how much it would take to get Gasol's attention? In the end I wouldn't be worried about the Spur or Thunder out bidding us, but rather the Lakers.

    Rajon Rondo? Not really sure how though. Morey's got a long night ahead of him.

    When you're dealing with a fruity dinosaur, you're eventually going to get bit.
