    confused, dont really see the reference everyone speaks up. Getting a call from dwight saying dwight is going to sign with the rockets, how is that against the rules. Then is GSW gm going to be fined? I think we are confused and the OP needs to get some clarification on what instance the tweet is refering to. Caspi? Ok what did he say or do to get him into trouble.

    I'm sure this will make the runner's up a lot happier. I would not put it past the Lakers trying to find some loophole to void the Rockets/Dwight agreement!

    Dwight is still coming to Houston :)


    But seriously, if it wasn't for David Stern, this Dwight Howard signing could not be possible. We'd be stuck with Gasol and Nene anchoring the team.


    Hence, Morey owes a debt of gratitude to David Stern. Now the Rockets have 2 NBA all-Stars!!! Harden and Dwight who are undisputed in the top 3 at their respective positions.

    The NBA is a joke the way they conduct free agency and the draft. The way they do it is baseball-esque, which is not meant as a compliment.

    Probably talked about analytics and how it pertains to acquiring free Agents in a convention .Im sure he will be getting a nice bonus to cover that.

    What's the problem? Howard became a free agent on July 1. You can't talk about free agents with no contractual obligations to anyone? Where is that rule?

    Rockets Fined $150K for tampering.

    According to Espn, the Rockets were fined $150K for Unauthorized Public comments on Dwight Howard. I kinda had a feeling this was going to happen. Thoughts?

    Very un-Morey like. He always seems so careful to avoid these things.
