    At this point, I'm right smack in the middle.

    If we get Dwight, AWESOME

    If we don't, AWESOME

    Either way, I'm going to really enjoy watching the Rockets this season.

    They can't trade their #4 pick because he's signed. Same with Zeller. Would have to be much later in offseason. And their own picks are fairly worthless because they'd be a playoff team. The Kings pick helps, but top 10 protection isn't near as impressive as the Toronto pick with only top 3 protection. It's an absolutely garbage package for an elite player.

    as long as I am not watching orlando magic 2.0, i will be ok. I can get excited for rookies to get better but not for jason richardson and turkeyglue.

    But the league seems to love helping the Lakers get star players for less. Hopefully Hennigan doesn't take a lesser package and stands his ground like he did against the Nets.

    Jonathan Feigen on sportscenter, debunked the rumor that the rockets will gut the team for Howard. Just reiterated the obvious stuff.

    Let it play out fellas. When big trades are soon to happen or in the preliminary area of happening, all it takes is one dumbass to say something and everyone jumps on their bandwagon. It could be true, it could not be true.

    We are in July. Don't be surprised if this lasts all summer. If we get him, GREAT! If we do not, so be it. Rockets will be back, may be next year, may be 2-3 years from now. All will work out in the end.

    Why does everyone just want the Rockets to just make a trade? They don't have to and they shouldn't...Orlando is the one who has to make the trade if the Rockets aren't included be happy they dodged a bullet

    Now Feigen tweeted it WAS NOT delivered after all.

    But, following his tweets makes it sound like we've TRIED. The Tommy Dee guy makes it sound as though we are NOT delivering it 'til the Dwight stuff is cleared up.

    Dee loses credibility with this one (in my book). He's just flat out wrong (unless Feigen is, which I doubt since he's there and actually SAW us trying to get sheet to Grunwald/Knicks).

    The Tony Mejia guy does seem fairly credible, though.

    Im one of the Dwight supporters but at this point I would just walk away. Daryl should keep his stance.

    the cleveland 3way rumor is garbage

    theyve signed waiters and zeller to their rookie deals already so any trade with them involved would likely be in a month

    The trades for Dwight that are 'close' are to big cities.. and the offers are pure garbage, compared to ours. This is just my opinion, but it seems like they're trying to force him somewhere, or just trying to get more out of us.
