    I would think Morey would want a team option, just based off his track record.

    It should be illegal what he does.

    I mentioned this in the NBA Forum, how Yahoo! breaks news and ESPN plagiarizes it.

    He has more pressure than Lin to perform. Hope he lives up to it.

    I can't wait to read the details on the deal. I sure hope it is front loaded even up to say 20 mil the first year. That would give us more flexibilty later to add another star. Barring that is legal to do. :grin:

    The Rockets are still in a bit of a box. I'm not convinced Lin is durable enough to come close to playing to his contract, so he may not be tradable. I like some of their pieces, but to bring someone else in they may have to again cut a decent player like they did with Scola last year.

    I like harden but he is not worth $80 mil. Wake up people.

    No they won't. They've got enough cap for another max player in the summer.

    I expected it, but it's still nice to see. Welcome aboard, James!
