    Most people were ambivalent about Stern over the past few seasons, wondering why some people complained so loudly. He may not be the direct cause for losing Chuck, but he's only getting worse. I hope we can all agree that the league deserves no benefit of the doubt after this whole episode.

    I'm so angry and upset to even know what to say. I hope somehow we get him back.

    Chuck and Battier were the heart an soul of the team. Now both of them are gone. I hope we don't become a heartless and soulless team.

    As long as we have Lowery, we have someone to teach heart & soul to the team.

    Glen Davis just signed for 24 million for 4 years in Orlando. Chuck was a bargain at this price.

    I guess Morris is a Philly kid. Has kinda swagger.
    Speaking of which D-Mo will be fun to watch

    Its sad to see Hayes go, but now at least it forces the rockets to play a center over 6' 5".

    I really like Hayes and what he adds to the rockets.

    However, I don't think he will do as well in Sac.

    He is a team player, system player. Sac plays 2 on 5 and everyone else watches.

    Stern had nothing to do with Hayes going to Sactown. He was leaving regardless, Morey wasn't going to pay him that much.

    Enjoy the SAC w/ Big Cuz and Reke Evans... just wish the Modesto Monster had landed w/ a contender.

    What makes me angry is that we essentially lost Hayes for no reason whatsoever.

    Hard to say. I don't know the details of the new CBA, but Hayes' cap hold(how much he counts against the cap until he signs somewhere) should be fairly low. In which case, the Rockets could trade for Gasol, sign Nene to whatever's left of the cap, and then resign Chuck once they're over the cap. Chuck's salary is only a problem if it takes a chunk out of the cap. But there's no difference between being $0 over the cap and $4 mil over the cap.
