    I mean I would add Marcus Morris and D Motie to the list of players we should not deal.

    I said the same thing and went to the store to get a 6 pack. Now it's already 6 beers later

    Lot of bombastic statements, considering none of us know what is actually going on.

    By the way, what happened to the guy who went off to have sex? Was he alone!

    Am I the only one that thinks this guy needs help??

    So the Rockets are pursuing three players in your reality (Dwill, Nene, and Howard)

    The nets have Dwill already, already have the cap space for Nene and are in the lead to get him, and Dwight Howard just requested a trade there

    The rockets have none of those 3, Nene has a better offer from NJ and to clear space just the MATCH (yes, match only) we need to do this Pau Deal, AND THEN we have to get Howard here and convince Orlando to trade him here instead of taking Lopez (young Center) plus Two (count them....two picks) while we only give Gasol (Old Center that no rebuilding franchise needs) and 1 pick


    Can I nickname you Crazy Jo?

    If Dwight to NJ/NY is set then I bet LA backs out of this deal. There whole purpose is to get Paul & Howard.

    Folks will be like wth for me saying this, but unless there's something bigger that none of us, including reporters know about that would make the Rockets title contenders this season ... I wouldn't trade Pau for Patterson straight up (hypothetically speaking). Patterson will be a beast in the league for years.

    No, his skillset isn't close to Pau, but he's productive offensively and defensively ... He also has a v-12 motor compared to Gasols v-6

    You want to keep the "high upside" players but would be fine giving up DMo? And...apparently almost everyone else on the team?

    Ok I've been busy and I've heard bits and pieces of what's going on. So who the hell are we now giving up for Gasol and is the plan to get Nene?

    Patterson too? WTF is going on here.:mad: If we give up Scola, Martin, Patterson, and draft picks, that is crazy. Gasol just isn't that good. Even if we get Nene I will be unhappy with this.

    I think Nene genuinely wants to come here.
