    I wouldn't put it past Morey to have them do this as a ploy. No way would they tip their hand to the deal before it was done.

    As a ploy for what? What exactly does this accomplish besides misleading the fans?

    Yeah, but if the Magic and/or Rockets both stay tight-lipped about it, the media won't know. I'm fairly certain that Motiejunas is NOT involved if we are taking back J-Rich, Duhon, AND Big Baby.

    The Rockets only have 1 good pick to give and it's the TOR pick. It's going to take a few young prospects to beef up the offer.

    Don't we have to sign players to play in SL? Tomorrow is their first game. This might be the last call before Orlando can get them without having to wait until they are tradable.

    I do wonder what would happen if we amnesty Scola and then no trade happens. We would be so far under the cap we would have to sign someone off the FA list to a 1 overpaid year contract. Kind of risky but it does go to show you Morey is Howard or all young rebuild year.

    We always had our suspicions about CLee and Kevin Martin - this just confirms that.
