Dwight update: Not close to a trade with Rockets

Yes. So at very least he's not stupid. We were all shooting them down too, remember?

 

Let's hope Morey doesn't cave and give up 2 of our first round draft picks this year. They can have Martin, Patterson, Morris and then one of our other forwards: D-Mo, Jones or White. Lamb is a keeper, just for the fact we are stacked at forward and have no good other guards besides Lin. J-rich is over the hill and Duhon is just garbage, his face alone annoys me. No way we take Davis though with our 6/7 PFs already, no freaking way. Also, we better not give up 2 first round picks for next year!

 

This Mejia dude isn't saying nothing....just speculation which is a waste of time

 

The Magic already have forward prospects. They'd want Lamb. I could see TJ being thrown in as well.

Lamb is proven to be our best rookie, at least as far as summer league goes. (marginally better than Donuts IMO). I, unfortunately, cannot see him staying a Rocket if we are trading for Howard, unless Morey somehow sells Hennigan on potential of Morris being an all-star.

 

I'd put real money (something I NEVER do cause I dont gamble) on the fact that the fake cyberx on that other forum is the same schmuck that was posing as popeye.

It wouldnt take but a moment for the mods over there to confirm it, but it is very obvious that isnt the same guy posting as cyberx here....the style is totally different.

Trolololololo

Give him some *****ing credit :grin:

 

I have a suspicion this morning that some of these guys coming from Orlando are going to be redirected along with Patterson for an established wingman. Don't know anything. But just have a suspicion that most likely Big Baby, Duhon, and Patterson are going to wind up somewhere else and a legit wingman is coming back.

 

Why are you defending the guy like that...like someone said he might have some inside info but he's mostly speculating..Nobody knows anything but the Rockets and Magic

 

Well he obviously had information that Brooklyn was never a real option when EVERYONE was saying it was a done deal. So I'll trust his sources.

 

Who did you have in mind?

 

Everyone here were shooting down the Nets...it was kinda obvious

 

Perhaps. But I still feel like he MAY be another "throw things on the wall and see if they stick guy." He just happens to taking a stance that aligns with most of ours.

While I'm sure Lakers, Cavs, Nets, etc. fans are reading his tweets and posting saying, "Look at this tool."

 

Who in the media was shooting it down?

 

If Houston trades for Dwight, it will be easy to predict the assets involved, so lots of trolls can claim inside knowledge without really doing anything other than laying out the obvious.

Lamb and two picks as the centerpiece of a trade?

Stop the presses!

 

The only guy I consider reliable is Woj from yahoo

 

Nothing specific yet. Philly amnestied Brand and drafted Harkless. They need a PF. Iggy has an opt out after this next season. Somewhat of a possibility there.

 

I honestly think Rudy Gay is in play. The cap relief for Memphis would be tremendous. It will depend on what we have left after the Howard deal of course.

 

He was reporting Dwight to Brooklyn was a done deal.

 

Link?

 

I suppose.

Just remember, after the Dwight trade, the package likely has to be PPat plus Duhon plus one of JRich/Davis. Memphis doesn't need bigs. And they don't have a lot of roster spots open either.
