    Really? Are you serious? Nothing wrong with that? If they could do this, what's the point of a salary cap? :rolleyes:

    I believe the NBA thoroughly vets the financials to make sure that doesn't happen.

    Morey is probably pressuring Orlando GM because Rockets will need to release those non-guaranteed contracts tomorrow to sign with Asik and Lin. If released...there goes $7 millions worth of expiring contracts (which Rockets can use to absorb salary).

    I think he was just complimenting that guy for his prediction, not saying he got it from there. Still, I have definite doubts as to Tommy Dee's credibility.

    For what it's worth, Alex Kennedy is still selling the "two-team trade" garbage. I think it's pretty apparent that he and Rudolph have the same source, and it's directly related to Dwight/Fegan.

    ESPN ticker on D12 "teams other than the nets" and "Atlanta".

    They just love sticking it to Houston, don't they? I just find it comical these days :rolleyes:
