    Kind of classless imo to be so exuberant at the slightest upgrades by constantly flipping players through trade, especially good guys who worked hard throughout the season.

    This is funny. Morey's pattern is to confound CF.

    Fans argued over whether the Rockets should keep Dragic or Lowry. Who to keep as starter? Turns out Morey got rid of both of them. The answer is neither stays.

    Then fans argued over whether to start Patterson or Morris. Then Morey traded both of them. The answer is neither stays.

    Then fans started arguing whether Lin or Asik would be moved out as a large salary piece. Who to keep? And now it turns out again, that Morey will get rid of BOTH of them. The answer is neither stays.

    So, Howard, Harden, Parsons. And Lin and Asik both shipped out to make way to sign Josh Smith or someone.

    And the nugget about the Rockets requiring a starting PG in return for Lin or no deal shows what many have said, that Beverley is not a starter.

    That's the thing! I don't think they trade Lin or Asik until they have Howard's signature on a contract! The question I have is what kinda market is there for Lin and Asik? I mean can we trade them to Boston for Rondo and Bass or K-Love or LMA or are we gonna have to trade them individually? I would prefer Love/Rondo over LMA at this point in their careers! Lets go! Super Team 2! I'm ready for this!

    I rather stay status quo than trade both. Didn't Parsons say that Asik will be M.Gortat as a pitch to Dwight?!?!?!? Anyone catch Harden's twitter- wth is he really doing?!?!?


    Harden tweeted 10 minutes ago:

    Sanaa Lathan I've been looking for you lol..

    Not sure how I feel about a Calderon-Harden backcourt. Offensively it would be amazing, but defensively... definitely would be one of the worst defending backcourts in the entire NBA. Even if Dwight was anchoring down low, I'm not sure...

    Kind of pointless to keep hard working good guys if they aren't going to get you to the ultimate goal.

    Now Lin's contract may not look favourable, but I want to see him play with Dwight. Remember when he was Knick with Chandler? They were a brilliant tandem that year and I can see an even better one with Dwight.

    or maybe we trade Lin for Lowry then do sign and trade with Hawks sending Asik and TJones for Josh Smith then maybe trade Dmo and Rolls royce for Courtney Lee and call it an offseason

    True, but the general tone on here is stomach churning.

    Calderon would be a great fit for the Houston system as currently constructed. Good 3-pt shooter and low TO's.

    Yeah, would definitely be interesting to see how he does with a Center that can receive a pass reliably and finish.
