    @WojYahooNBA: Once Houston amnesties Scola, Rockets will be able to absorb 2nd max deal next summer in addition to Howard now. Gives them chance for CP3.

    There's no Howard-to-Houston deal imminent with amnesty of Scola, but Rockets goal is unmistakable: They'll stop at nothing to get him.

    Howard will have to choose leaving money and a chance to recruit 2 max players to come back to Houston with him.

    If we get Dwight and He still leaves it will cost Morey his job.

    The beating heart of the Rockets ceases ... such a mournful silence.

    No kidding.

    Morey HAS to be certain. He's too careful, too methodical. He wouldn't throw Scola away for nothing (with us paying his salary to boot) if he wasn't sure.

    What does this mean for retaining Lee? I have a feeling Howard's buddy might be back for one more year.

    why people are complaining?
    everyone was criticizing Morey for not chosing a direction
    now he is doing all his best to land a superstar who can bring other superstars (CP3 ie)
    really don't get people here on CF!

    CP3 can sign a $108 million contract with the Clippers next year. If he had signed an extension it would be for $60 million.

    Of course people reading too much into things, much too quickly.

    "SCOLA GONE, DWIGHT IN!"

    Not so fast.

    Not that it can't or won't happen but...slow down folks!

    Can't make a championship omelette without breaking a few eggs.

    We're going balls deep. No backing out now.

    Please sign somewhere in the East. I can't cheer against Scola 4 times a year. But seriously, why did no one want to trade for this guy?
