    Anybody? I know we have Torontos pick next year if it falls between 3-14 correct? We also have Dallas', if it falls where?

    We have our 1st round next year and the year after and both 2nd round picks and the Knicks 2nd rounders the next two years?

    Will you move out of state and join the SEC too?

    If I was a Magic fan, I would be excited as hell too. Wouldn't you?

    Was just joking since some people *cough* Bucher *cough* said that Dwight could potentially not be ready to play til January, which is oddly enough when the Nets can trade for him again! OMG NO WAY!

    This was my favorite quote from the magic fans. Houston is a small market like Orlando? Also, they obviously have not followed many of Morey's moves, the guy can put pieces together. They just want to see Dwight screw us.

    Uh, Howard is better than Wade, and I'd say he's better than Durant.

    Didn't you hear? That's the same day Dwight can be traded to Brooklyn. Coincidentally, that's the day he heals

    Bucher chose Houston as having "the worst offseason in the NBA", One of his colleagues replied that Houston lost multiple players FOR A REASON. He was referring to the potential Dwight Howard deal, and Bucher's idiot response was " Are you a Rockets fan?" As if his assumption was ridiculous.

    If we take back 3 huge contracts from Orlando (and give up the entire rookie/draft pick farm), then aren't we getting cap-swamped with the same B-level roster Howard is trying to get away from?

    I hope there is a middle ground in the deal. If not, I hope like hell that Morey draws a line in the sand with the Magic, and is willing to walk away.

    I know what you're saying.

    It's just hard to compute as a Rockets fan. :(

    classic insecurity. Pathetic to see it displayed on-air. I bet he drives a car that's shaped like a giant penis.

    ESPN thinks the sports world revolves around NYC. The fact that D12 is likely coming to Houston and not the Nets pisses them off. Get ready for all the anti Rockets talk and reports about how bad a deal Daryl Morey made regardless of the outcome or what the Rockets actually end up giving to the Magic.

    Based on PER Dwight is the 6th best player in the NBA, but realistically I would put him only behind Lebron and Durant.
