    Oldest trick in the book. It's like buying a car, you act like you're not interested until they offer you the deal you want. Rookie GM is learning fast.

    "A source close to the situation" tells this to sam amick. Meh, who knows...I wonder, if Orlando doesn't trade Howard for something, are they just going to let him walk next year for nothing?

    Don't see this happening. The report said a prime pick. If prime is 12 and up, we won't have the ammo to go after Dwight. The idea of we blowing our wad on Gasol makes me sick to my stomach. :confused:

    Houston rockets want Dwight Howard but Dwight wants to be in Brooklyn. Is it worth the 1 year rental?

    That might be us, but Morey is a true believer in his strategy.

    Being at pick 8th would have made a hell of a difference wouldn't it.

    LOL!

    Looks like Rockets were stockpiling picks for run at Juwan Howard.
