    Absolutely no problem. Kyle played with Gay and McGrady. And, yes, I do think he can make Harden actually try to play off the ball more.

    Kyle didn't put up these numbers with McGrady or gay. His all star game came out when gay was traded away.

    If Melo goes to Chicago I would love to bring back Lowry for around 30mil for 3 years

    If rockets get Melo, Parson would be a backup.

    If Lowry knew he would have to spend half-season under McHale, and his next contract depends on it. Of course, he would try to reconcile it, he is not crazy.

    I never dreamed Lowry would become a superstar point guard.

    I would love bringing Lowry back. Toronto is my second favorite team because of him. I don't think his spat with McHale lost him any hardcore Rockets fans, the ones like me who were always on his side even when he backed up Aaron Brooks.

    Their gm is quite good. Don't expect any lopsided deals

    I would def welcome back Lowry, but Rondo on this team would average a near triple-double.

    Woj tells the truth. Daryl did go after Lowry. But what Woj missed out was that Daryl asked for Lowry as a side piece to his main trade target, Patrick Patterson, whom Toronto refused to trade.

    The vast tax differential alone would probably allow us to offer quite a bit less as long as it included a trade kicker, you're paying 49.5% on amounts over 500k, which is more than california, not to mention you're then slapped with currency transfer fees on all local expenses since they're paid in usd.

    I'd rather have Lowry than Melo. Not saying Lowry is the better player.
