    Soooo....

    Are the chances of draft day deals looking seriously remote right now or is it just me?

    The only draft day deal you should expect is for a pick. No players. Im still holding out on a Stoudemire trade happening but with rumors flying like crazy, I dont know. Shaq is probably off to Cleveland, Thunder are considering trading #3 overall to Phoenix and then that would lead us with..I dont know, things wouldnt look good for us on that front. But I'll have to be patient and see what happens.

    One more day and all these scenarios will fall into its place. It is best not to expect rather then expect and end up getting disappointed if things do not go the Rockets way. The anticipation is nerve wrecking and that what makes it fun as a fan as the possibilities are probably countless.

    Just curious, how long have you followed Morey? I'm presuming years before he was affiliated with the Rockets.

    But since he apparently does these pre-pre-draft pressers can you explain why he didn't know yesterday where the official draft party's being held?

    I mean, he's promoting a draft in which we have no pick, and likely are to get a scrub anyway, but we planned a pre-pre-draft presser to announce nothing?

    Sure, we do that every year.

    Why would he know where the draft party is being held? That's more of a marketing department thing.

    A lot of teams hold pre-draft press conferences. For example, the Lakers http://my.lakers.com/blogs/2009/06/24/mitch-kupchak-draft-presser/

    "McGrady is a guy that can give you 23million or so"

    Daryl can blow smoke up your ass and you will take it and not remember the question in the first place. He's a magic man.

    Raheel, from what you've gathered and/or what you've heard, do you think McGrady is moved tonight or in the near future?

    I know everyone's THOUGHT it, and some have even asserted this, but when you say it, it feels like Christmas morning, and I'm 8 yrs old again. :D


    Just hope we get something good in trade.
