    This man must have started doing crack cocaine this offseason.

    • Lets Dragic go despite by all indications wanting him back next season, all over a 4th year player option.
    • Then proceeds to offer Jeremy Lin a big deal, when he has a better PG that won't be overpaid on the roster already (Lowry).
    • Trades Lowry for a protected as hell 1st round pick in the future, likely to be 8-14 and that's only if the Raptors don't make the Playoffs which is a possiblity
    • Won't have a PG on the roster because Lin will likely stay in NY
    • Offers Asik a huge deal, yet never relinquishes his pursuit of D12, wtf is going to happen if Bulls don't match and we have both D12 and Asik on the roster?
    • Drafts TWO more PFs in the Draft, oh, and he failed to even trade up for Drummond
    • Is fixated on Dwight Howard, despite Dwight saying he won't re-sign in Houston.
    • Is so fixated that he amnesties Scola, despite not even having a D12 deal imminent.

    By the time if Dwight gets traded here, he will have no one to play with, they might be a 30 win team consisting of Dwight + scrubs. Then you think you can convince him to stay cause there is an extra 25 million involved, but at the same time expect Chris Paul to disregard the same 25 million and sign in Houston instead of with the Clippers.

    I have a feeling Orlando GM is laughing at Morey and wants to find out how much he can actually force Morey to do. Morey is desperate and all GMs in the NBA know this, he has lost all leverage.

    Yes, this whole thing is going to be a disaster and blow up in our faces.

    Orlando is going to dump all their bad contracts on us...steal all our rookies and all our future picks...Royce White is going to get ROY...Hennigan is going to end up with executive of the year...and Cuban is going to sweet talk Dwight into leaving us for the Mavericks.

    You create a thread like there was no motive for these decisions.

    He is attempting to build a championship contender, not a "darkhorse".

    Offseason just began...

    We will also have a handful of junk contracts to deal with.

    yeah, let's say he has a 20% chance of getting dwight to stay next year, and a 10% chance of d12 and cp3 in Houston. He will be God then...

    but 80% of the time he will have destroyed the Rockets for the foreseeable future, next 3 years at least. No assets, just tanking, and he has lost his job.

    All in on Howard. Top 5 player in the league. It must be done. No need to even elaborate.

    You all were tired of being mediocre by missing the playoffs by a hair and always picking 14th in the draft year after year right? We wanted change and now we're getting it! F'n finally!

    By the way, that "PROTECTED AS HELL" first round pick is the best pick that Orlando has been offered. It very well could be the reason why we could land DWIGHT HOWARD. Give me a break with all of this. You act like everything has just been arbitrary. There has been a plan the entire time, even if you can't see it.
