    We have officially turned into the Rockets of 1982. Anybody got Allen Leavell's phone number.

    So what if Morey traded Lowry to Toronto before the draft? Do you think we would get the 8th pick this year instead of this future pick?

    Gary "Chicken Salad" Forbes, 6'7 220 lb forward avg 6 points and 2 rebounds in 14 minutes per game http://www.nba.com/playerfile/gary_forbes/

    Get Royce White down to 250 lbs and roll him out a point guard.

    Lowry for draft pick? The only all-star in this team for a draft pick? Genius

    I wasn't aware that Lowry made the all star team. I need to get out more.

    I think that everything going on here is a game of chess... Morey is trying to land the franchise player he and Leslie Alexander covet. And the assets they offered Orlando was tempting but NOT ENOUGH!!!

    It is obvious that the deal that Morey offered Orlando was not enough. Maybe this sweetens the pot just enough for Orlando to go the Rockets way.



    And with the Nets having no cap room to sign Howard, the chips are on the table showing. Howard will have to leave a lot of money on the table next season if he bolts via free agency.

    For all the talk about Deron Williams wanting to play for his hometown team, the Mavericks, ultimately money talked the the Bull doodo walks!!!

    My opinion, Dwight won't resign if we are in rebuilding mode. Just won't happen.

    Btw, for all those saying eff Morey this and eff Morey that... who do you think handicapped him from rebuilding through the draft in the first place to now back tracking and blowing the team up.

    Morey made some questionable decisions yes, but please if you going to hold someone accountable, hold the right person...

    There are some stipulations on the pick we don't know about.
