    Dude, stick to whatever bits of "inside" info you have.

    Your takes on the Rockets personnel and judgement of talent are really really bad. Not surprising since you're a Lakers fan.

    Rockets Drs have contacted Steve Nash's doctors to compare notes etc.

    These nerve thing is tricky. Nash and him have a similar issue.

    Damn that's crazy to hear. I thought Nash's condition was more degenerative.

    D-Mo reminds me of Pau in the post, I have enjoyed watching him lately. Needs to be more back to the basket.

    Honestly, adding in Capela, a couple of second round picks and Canaan, it is getting closer by the day. D-Mo is that intriguing of a talent. But Morey is not in any hurry. And D-Mo is improving every game. If he continues to fit this well with Howard (a big if) he just might become the third Rockets star. That Rockets front line might become one of the best in the NBA. Two top 10 defensive bigs putting up 40+ points a game. Unlikely, but we will see.

    Lulz, y'all think DMo is Shawn Kemp in his prime or something.

    DD has this one right on. No major trades unless a exceptional one is offered. However, this team does need a Jamal Crawford to come in and competently spare Harden of the burden of scoring. Speaking of Crawford, that guy just kills us when we play the Clippers. Notice how even the our starters play their starters. It is only when Crawford comes in that separation happens in the scoreboard. The Rockets should try something different and put Ariza on him every time he is in the game.

    HAHA Shawn Kemp.... Not even close.

    You have to give up talent to receive talent back...

    A very reasonable take. Jones honestly, is my biggest worry. A front line of D-Mo, a healthy Jones and Howard is a Rockets dream come true. Nerve issues in the body of a huge world class athlete has got to be worrisome.

    Denver is holding hope that they can attach him with McGee or Gallinari.

    Dont see it happening.

    I think you spoke your mind on DMO. You know, DMO is now Hakeem around here so no one can even speak about DMO. :grin::grin:

    Keep doing your thing homie.

    I do believe DMo as well as the coaches are learning more and more what works for him, and what doesn't. This is the first op the gent has had in the NBA to get his legs without looking over his shoulder.

    Re: TJo. Any idea what exactly the Nash docs' reference is for Jones' specific situation?

    Am I impressed with his improvement? Yes, I am.

    Is he a star? No.

    Is he trade able? Of Course.

    Is Gallo that damaged? A pre-injured Gallinari is a guy I want - - at the 3 and stretch-4. I have not seen him this season; what is going on with him?

    Rockets will be wary of trading a guy before he peaks, because of Lin, but Lin eventually fell back down to Earth, so whatever.

    I'm more of a lurker but agree with cyber here.

    Dmo is intriguing but if Morey can use him to land a Dragic level (or comparable) talent this would be the time to do it. Doubt Dmo's value will get much higher. It's win now baby with this current roster. As much as I like Dmo don't see him making a huge impact in the playoffs this season. Maybe I'm way off but if Dwight and Harden don't at least make the WC Finals, the entire season will be looked upon as a huge disappointment.
