    Not sure Im sold on the Gasol/Dalembert combo quite as much as the Gasol/Nene combo. Better have a secondary trade in the works for a good young wing players.

    Nene is not coming here, Dalembert is getting huge offer from Mavs so Rockets get screwed big time. Great job Morey, great job ahole.

    Roster after trade:

    Lowry / Flynn
    Lee / Twill / JT
    Budinger / Morris
    Patterson / Hill
    Gasol / Thabeet

    We are getting a lot worse, don't forget that Martin & Scola were our top scorers last season! Don't forget Scola was the man for Argentina again. Don't forget Scola hustles and is tough while Gasol is soft and doesn't want to be here.

    Morey and Alexander running Rockets into the ground.

    I think Nene will be overpaid. Its a blessing if we dont get him. However I am not too thrilled with dalembert as the center. We should go after Deandre Jordan and Marc Gasol.

    You get my point.

    It's going to be a low pick anyways. Granted, it's a deep draft next year, but we have more than enough role players. I doubt a pick in the late lottery range, even in a deep draft, will grant us a superstar.

    He hasn't jumped on reported a $70 Million contract and Marc rumors haven't even begun yet.

    If nene was going to sign with NJ he would have already... He's gotta be waiting to see what happens here!

    Stop jumping to conclusions and wait for the aftermath of what D.M is trying to do... to upgrade the team.

    If Nene asks too much money, Marc would love to play with his brother. I mean, imagine what it means for the Gasol family to have to brothers leading a team. And they've got a great chemistry ingame and would be a headache to stop. Both so skilled to pass the ball. That would be just amazingly beautiful.

    This is what I was thinking, but we're not offering NJ type money.

    In my heart of hearts I think Nene wants to come here and form the best frontcourt in the NBA.
