    I'm not sure Les would go 170m into the luxury tax for 20 Asiks, but god damn what a good looking team that would be.

    Feigen told me in a tweet he'd heard they wanted to complete it before the flight tomorrow (typically at 3).

    Why do you assume that the 20 Asiks would not be coordinating with each other?

    I find the whole Milsap/Morey twitter thing to be strange. Considering that.... I have to think we are on the verge of acquiring Milsap.

    If Morey had 20 Asiks, 19 would request a trade.

    So... This was maybe the basis of all of the "Rockets have a deal in place, will wait for other offers" BS we were hearing a few days ago? Makes sense.

    Hey, if he drove that offer up to Millsap I'm not gonna complain.

    It is odd Morey followed millsap. You think his mind would be else where during all of this

    THere are only two possibilities. He's trolling or we are seriously pursuing Milsap and are close.

    He wouldn't casually follow a player on another team.

    Watching that half, like most Rockets games, it looks again as if of all the players mentioned in Asik trades, the 1 they most need is Asik.

    I wonder if Boston leaked that trade just now in order to get teams to drop out of the bidding.

    I'm just saying that if Morey were pursuing multiple deals, you assume he would follow those people as well.

    I don't see him chasing Spencer Hawes on pinterest. So the whole thing with Milsap makes sense.

    I don't even care if we give another asset (IE Motiejunas or Smith) to acquire Milsap. Keep Lin and let him be the heart of the bench and I really believe you have a team with potential to win this year. Just need a true backup center...
