    The screen is made by Dynex, it's all a ploy to sign Zoran Dragic.

    Are they also going to be doing similar type upgrades to the locker room, training facilities, private plane and uniforms to attract star players? :eek:

    A similar-sized scoreboard is already going in at Bankers Life Fieldhouse in Indy, except Toyota Center's board will be even BIGGER. Gives you an idea what to expect ....think Cowboys Stadium.

    sure looks that way, specifically because of the allstar game... depending on how much the texas special events fund contributed. (they contributed $26million to the superbowl in arlington)

    its fun following the money trail. les should thank us for buying him a big ass scoreboard/tv screen.

    We could seal a deal with a Sheikh and buy Bron, Wade, Bosh, Dwight, CP3, Griffin and all other guys.

    How come no other team ever thought of this?!

    Man, you guys are missing the point of the new, bigger than life board. Morey is starting the "Recruit Lebron Campaign" & the gloves are coming off this time. He won't lose this time! :D

    First, Morey sells Les on the idea of a Dallas Cowboy type screen to help recruit Lebron. Lebron comes here for the All-Star game & sees his image plastered all over the screen bigger than life & falls in love with himself all over again. He asks himself where else can he see himself larger than life anytime he wants & laughs out loud saying "Jordan never had this".

    Morey then leaks the information that the Rockets will mic. their next Superstar for every game. Lebron then starts thinking he'll be able to hear himself anytime he wants & falls even further in love with himself.

    Next, Morey being sick & tired of having his elusive unicorn (superstar players) elude him, convinces Les to give up his private jet & leaks this as well. He even goes so far as to say the Rockets will paint the image of their next Superstar on the jet. Lebron hears this & thinks "The whole world could see me then", & falls even more in love with himself.

    Morey then convinces Les to offer a 50% ownership in the Rockets to the next Rocket's Superstar player. Lebron goes, "Hmmmm...."

    Morey's not done yet. He convinces the Mayor, instead of giving the Rocket's next Superstar player the keys to the city, she should just give him the city outright. The mayor agrees & this is also leaked to the media. Once again, Lebron thinks, "While Jordan might have theoretically owned Chicago, he didn't actually own his own city." & he laughs out loud again.

    Finally, Morey throws one more offering out there. He announces that once omnership of the city has been passed to the future Rocket's Superstar player, there will no longer be a Mayor of Houston but instead, he will be known as the King of Houston. Lebron just grins.


    This just in.......,

    LEBRON DEMANDS IMMEDIATE TRADE TO HOUSTON!!!​


    Miami Herald
    By: Some dumb writer in Miami
    Posted on: Some date in the future

    In a startling announcement today, lebron James has demanded an immediate trade to Houston. When asked why, he responded that he, Morey & Houston loved himself so much more than Miami did. Lebron immediately left the press conference grinning like a cheshire cat & leaving the media speechless.


    The legend lives on.
