    Can we all please take notice of the racial differences in this gif. See fans^

    White people-Scared look on face, waving hands toward fight to dissuade it.

    Black people- Appeared to be yelling, engaged/moving forward.

    I found this funny.

    White people always be scared. Myself included. I see a fight and I'm gone. haha.

    Not entirely accurate, Lin was moving forward.

    Dude on the left didn't even stop chewing his gum.

    Normally I'd say I wouldn't be worried about it because nobody in the NBA actually fights anymore, but I wouldn't mess with Garcia. He might actually go for it.

    --DOC Rocket's tweet today--

    "If I= @dmorey, #rockets move Donuts, TJ, Capella, & FG(bird) 2NITE 4 Ilyasova & Henson or #trade w/ATL. No Star! Use trade ea& picks in '14"

    "@dmorey eyes R in left field: T Harris, A Bennett, G Dragic, etc...I sell the farm 4 Harris. Can't keep Capella & TJ..they're too dumb."

    "Had the bench in sight but gambled 4 the star. Can get the bench NOW but STILL protecting 2015. #Rockets --2mediums equal 1large"

    "A bottle of water isn't worth $10. But a bottle of water in the desert is ABSOLUTELY worth $10! What do #rockets @dmorey need? #Perspective"

    Tobias Harris. Perfect for current team. Playmaker, plays big, great mover without the ball, can knock down the three, versatile enough to get his own shot. And for Morey's sake, he's a 3-4 tweener.

    I'd give them Terrence and a second rounder for Harris.

    He might be the player Plowman was referring to as the mysterious third target. He might have been unavailable previously but is now attainable. He is the real deal.

    I'd give up a Jones, a point guard, one of the rookies and a second rounder for Harris. Probably what it'll take to get him.

    So, Jones, Johnson, and a second rounder?

    Done.

    That would be a steal imo. Harris is the real deal, his game would fit perfectly here.

    He's restricted and fixing to get paid. You prepared to match a max contract offer for him?

    Max Harris? To - bias or not To - bias, that is the question.

    No star is unacceptable

    Why would rebuilding Orlando give up a player in Harris, averaging 18/8 at a very young age, who is essentially locked up for the next 4-5 years, being a RFA?

    Makes very little sense.

    1. Because he is not going to be a #1 superstar.

    2. Because he is fixing to get paid big time.

    3. Because it will be difficult to trade him for positive value after he signs his contract.

    4. Because they can get assets now in trade that they won't be able to get later after he hits restricted free agency and buy time until they are ready to compete behind Oladipo (if he grows into a superstar) and whomever else grows into superstardom for them.
