    I wonder if Morey's sphincter is tight. I bet you couldn't get a needled through it now. Over the tax line with a team that is so dysfunctional they probably forget to even wipe.

    no its not inconsistent playing time. he just isn't that good. some of you are just fooled easily when he hits 3-4 shots in a row every 10 games.

    I wouldn't be surprised if Thornton is waived at this point. I don't think he wants to be here. Morey is r****ded for trying to trade a player with known back issues. If he would have thrown Terrence in the deal instead of D-Mo I don't think there would have been a problem.

    Man what a cluster ****.... Gotta wonder sometimes about the Rockets injury reports, then again could be reason for that... So ****ty though if his back injury is more serious, hopefully he can get better and houston can sign him to a value contract (best case scenario), because if not there's no value.

    Back injuries/surgeries can be so unpredictable, I mean everyone handles them different, just sucks for him in a contract year.

    Another negative is that because this trade was agreed upon and then voided, the Rockets aren't able to make another trade instead.

    If they knew this was gonna happen, they probably would have made another deal instead.

    It's not illegal what SVG did. If Morey wanted to make sure the trade went through he always had the option to finish the trade days before the deadline.
    And teams have been dupped by other teams trading knowingly injured players with special issues that are not shown either in the files shared or in the general physical.
    Example : Hinkie robbed the Pelicans.

    In the end you gotta feel for DMO and his future. Poor guy.

    I expected better from you. Dmo's defensive fundamentals are better than half the teams. He jumps straight up defending the rim. He doesn't get lost on defense and actually tries to box out. Such a shame you spoke without actual facts to back you up.

    doesn't this assume that Detroit would have been willing to make the trade earlier than the last day of the deadline? two to tango, no?

    Rockets need to be done with that fat lump trainer Keith Jones.

    Having an obese, unfit trainer to begin with is not smart at all. Rockets constantly hide injuries and provide false reports. This clown couldn't even fix Dwight's contacts the other day LOL

    I'm pretty sure she's talking about Thornton.

    I also was looking forward to seeing if the DOF guys were right about him being the next Hakeem or whatever in Detroit, haha. At this rate going off a handful of games... I'm opting no.

    I expected better from you. My post was about Marcus Thornton. Such a shame you spoke without comprehending what you were reading.
