Dwight update: Not close to a trade with Rockets

Rudolph on the radio just said he reached out to Dwight and Dwight didn't comment, so it seems that someone else told him this info.

 

We are.

Much moreso than Cleveland.

 

Did you not listen to the radio?! haha

 

The offers Morey has structured have been with Asik/Lin on roster, so I'm sure all plans already have that factored in. I don't think this affects WHETHER we can make a deal with Orlando or not.

 

And you believe Rudolph? He's full of it, man.

 

Rudolph has no connections besides Howard Himself. He has no idea what Hennigan is planning.

 

Won't it determine the amount of contracts we can take back?

 

Yeah apparently Ric Bucher has some henchmen working for him... Rudolph being one of them...

 

This moron is just a mouth piece of DH.
Says "now we will see Orlando intentions".

This Moron has no idea that Cleveland's package is worse than the nets and Bynum does not want to play for Orlando.

Stupid Moron ..

 

I don't know who to believe..

 

so true!

LeBron and Bosh at least took less money to form their super team. i hate today's super stars take the short cut for "i want to win a championship". imagine if a 26yr. Michael Jordan force a trade to join the Lakers/Celtics

 

Anyone taking realgm seriously is kidding themselves. They've been wrong like 8 times this off season. They keep saying "sometimes you get something wrong." Well get something right first.

 

lol. No.

Not watching ESPN either. But, if I was, do you think I'd BELIEVE them? (that CLEVELAND is a better bet to "help" get Dwight to LA than Houston is?

No.

Not even close.

 

How many times does Howard or his handlers have to tell you guys that he does not want to be in Houston for you to understand???

 

The recent excitement of the past few days has made up for the mind-numbing mediocrity of the last few seasons.

 

Nothing to see here ... lets just move on with our rebuild

3 of our 4 rookies finished in the top 10 of summer league

Lamb #1 Jones #3 Montie at #7 White not in top ten but showed some great skills.

Very possible we have a top 5 and a top 10 pick next year ... let this group play together for a couple of seasons and they'll be dangerous.

 

Right. It doesn't affect WHETHER we can make a deal or not. Can happen whether or not they match Asik or not.

I do think it changes or potentially changes the pieces involved (mostly, who might be coming this way from Orlando)

 

Notice it has been very quiet all week until the Jeremy Lin story finally finished. Rumors are going to keep popping up now because Orlando is trying to entice Houston to offer more but until Dwight is dealt I still think the Rockets are in the best position to trade for him.

 

I may not like Jarrod Rudolph, but don't forget he was the one that broke the news that Dwight would opt-in and forego his ETO to stay with Orlando for 1 more season:

^ Not only did Rudolph broke the news, he even got the 1-on-1 interview with Dwight.

 

None of these guys look strong out of Bosh, Melo or Howard in terms of really wanting to come to a place like Houston they're divas. I can see Bynum because he's someone that doesn't give a F. You see that clearly.
