    That guy is getting too big for a role player on a fringe playoff team. We need to make noise (read: acquire Dwight) and get him his money (when his contract allows it) if we want him to stick around.

    Would never get invited if he had only average looks. Omer Asik should have gotten his spot.

    Team USA...I'm sure Asik got invited to the Turkey squad.

    I caught you sarcasm though. :cool:

    There are players that haven't even been invited asking expecting max contracts...
    Anyway, I'm looking forward to an even better year for him next season.

    it's just a camp for the youngsters. 24 young guys. not that many people outside of Houston will even notice. way too soon to speak about endorsements. it's more of a great recognition and confidence booster, and an opportunity to work with the best.

    4 years 38mil on a renegotiate and extend deal at the end of next season is my guess. And if he makes team USA, it'll be $48M.

    Racist. Just because Omer is Turkish doesn't mean he cannot be American.

    Too bad the Cavs wouldn't seriously consider trading the #1 pick for Parsons. :rolleyes:

    All Star potential, maybe. But even then, he won't make an all star appearance for another 3-5 years.. if that.

    To be honest 10mil is low balling. after next season with Houston, he will be offered a Max contract. Houston will not match. Ill truly miss him, hes my fav rocket right now

    actually its means he's not american, and that hes Turkish. And since when saying someone is not american its automatically an insult? As Americans are we so egotistical that we are above all else?
