    Who's going to play PF next to Dwight now? The guy who said Dwight would have to catch him first? Hell, there's like 6 possibilities.

    Tony Mejia: Dwight Howard-to-Houston rental idea looks like it's coming together, as I've said all week. Luis Scola gets amnesty -won't be jobless long. 2 minutes ago

    If we did the to get Howard then it will ease the pain.

    BUT, if we get Howard and he walks after the season, I will be just about done with Morey. :mad:

    So basically that means we cleared space so we can absorb all of Orlandos ****ty contracts. I get then sense I'm going to have to root for the Houston Magic this season, drama and all. Can't wait.:rolleyes:

    There's a storm coming Mr. Maury. You and your Rockets better batten down the hatches...cuz when it hits..you're all gonna wonder how you ever thought you could live so large and leave so little for the rest of the league.

    If true, not a smart move, especially wanting to clear room to take on all those contracts from Orlando. It reeks of desperation. On top of that, the Rockets just gifted Scola to a contender. It's hard for me to believe that wizard Maury wasn't able to get something for Scola.

    Because we need the cap space. If we make a trade, we would have to take back salary.

    Sad to see Scola go but I don't see DM doing this unless he is close to certain that a deal is close to done.

    They shopped Scola since the draft, if not longer.

    The Mavericks will be aggressive bidders for Scola on the amnesty wire, league sources said. Dallas is serious about Elton Brand too.

    The Maverics are not stupid.
