    Is Stern going to veto all our trades?

    Actually, I think this scrub Douglas is going to be the starting PG this year.

    I wouldn't get too worried about this.

    The Camby move needed to go down today before the Rockets can make any other moves using cap room. However, Camby will either get the deal he agreed to or perhaps may have to take a small haircut to make the salary cap math work. Either way, this trade WILL happen.

    Maybe they will say that there was some collusion with the whole Lin contract situation. To me that rumor doesn't have any legs but we shall see what happens...

    Nah

    He doesn't own us, the Knicks or Raptors, so I'd say probably not.
