    Both players could still be moderately tradeable to certain teams in the future, and they both are productive even at their age. The life of their contracts are scary but it is what it is. One thing for certain is that they are going to really need a playmaking wing or PG badly if this is to happen.

    If we are really taking on all those contracts, we better be holding onto more of our best young players.

    Hi Negative Nancy.

    And who would Morey take from Brooklyn? That's right no one.

    If Rox lose out on Asik/Lin, their cap space + Martin expiring + $6M of young guys almost exactly = D12 + Hedo + Duhon + Baby + J-Rich

    At least the rockets are getting attention for once lol

    I understand the Rockets following star players in the league, but Duhon, J Rich, & Big Baby in addition to Dwight? It's got to be more than just a coincidence.

    Big Baby is Dwight’s good friend, right? I remember that silly thread that Carl Herrera started awhile ago about Dwight “dating” Big Baby and I think that’s what it was about…I think if we HAD to take on salary Morey was somewhat amenable to taking on that contract, hoping Davis can help keep D12 happy.

    It's wrong, check Shamsports.com or google about his trade from TOR to ORL. Player options aren't partially guaranteed.

    It was widely reported he agreed to lessen the guaranteed amount from the last year which was a condition set by the Magic to make the deal.
