    Sure, but I don't think you can make them into something they aren't. TJones isn't suddenly going to be an average shooter, and Bev isn't going to jump to 6 assists per game.

    I want to keep Bev because I think he and Daniels fit exactly what we need from backup guards. Energy and shooting.

    I want my starting PG to be multidimensional. He needs to play at least average defense, be able to score, and create for others. I don't think that player is on the team right now.

    lin will have a better year than Rubio, and Rubio knows nothing about his team getting to the playoffs.

    you would basically be looking at giving up this for Rubio, then having to over pay him on his contract
    rockets 2015 1st
    rockets 2014 1st "Capella"
    dmo or jones
    bev cannan or nick

    --for rondo this is worth it but not for Rubio.

    You are pissing in the wrong pair of panties here. I have never b****ed about Morey or his "failures".

    I just prefer to take a wait and see attitude and I value information. Not all info may turn out but to cut off my nose because I don't like the smell of something is not only idiotic but damned painful.

    lol only way Dragic gets out of phoenix is if he forces his way out (unlikely)

    What does he mean the "deals not dead"? This is just classic Drew jumping the gun to get people excited...

    There was never a deal in place! Phoenix might have had mild talks with Morey about a potential deal, but let's be honest...it's not like it was close at any point. That should be pretty blatantly obvious.

    I still have yet to hear somebody give a reason as to why Phoenix would willingly give up one of it's two best players, and wouldn't just be content with bringing both back when they can afford it. The signing of Zoran makes it even likelier to me that Dragic will remain a Sun as well.

    Might as well assume that we are rolling with who we have. Maybe a mid-season deal comes through for Rondo, who looks to clearly be on the trading block.

    That would be my bet. Rondo in December using Jason Terry and other contracts / picks (renting him in February gets risky, given his contract status). If the Rubio stuff is true at all, that could, conceivably, still happen before the season starts.

    To be honest, I thought as far as PG goes that maybe we'd trade for a Marcus Smart type, someone who can backup Bev and also play some 2. (shrug)

    I'm not sure why anyone posts this guy's tweets. My dog Chico could tweet something and it would be more insightful.

    So are we on plan Y now. Lol

    Now the GARM has shifted to Reggie Jackson and Kendrick Perkins.

    I tell you one thing, these GARM Insiders have this forum rocking every day.

    Rondo is still the target.

    To be fair, Chico is pretty insightful.

    I'm an insider. It's been raining all day here. I didn't even leave my desk to go to lunch.
