If our fortunes ride on affording these two, then I can't help but think Parsons is a goner, and Moreyball is alive and well. As much as Parsons gives to this team, he isn't that third get-you-over-the-top guy, and he's probably gonna ask for $10,000,000 a year. I don't know if that someone is Morey; but if it prevents the acquisition of Unknown Third Star? Having some doubts, ya'll.
Keep posting Cybrex. Rome is the mob, the mob is Rome. If and when you've had enough and decide to go outside the forum, I'd like to know about it.
Sorry guys, but I want to know where this info is coming from. Love's camp reported the first and third to Morey's office, and the second trickled in to Morey's office from various sources? Then . . . this information was leaked to CF with Morey's consent? Or without Morey's consent? Cyberx, if you're an authorized leaker, why give a crap about your rep on the board? If you're not authorized, then how the heck are you keeping this up for so long without someone in the organization getting pissed? Either the Rockets want the above statements leaked to the public or they do not. Which is it? Now it's being publicized that Love disrespects Harden and Howard. And Morey wanted this to get out to the public?
I know some of older guys know me and have met me personally and I am not one to just throw random stuff out there. In some ways I didn't want to share anything because I know everyone gets flamed here but anyone can take it for what it's worth. Down here in SoCal one of the first people I became friends with ended up being cousins with Kevin Love. I have proof, seen personal pictures etc and we are pretty cool since we play ball together and hang out. If any of the older posters want proof then I can show them but I'm not going to blast it on here. But we were just chatting the other day and I shot him this note cause we randomly talk about Love. Take it with a grain of salt because at the end of the day the Wolves can do whatever they want, but ultimately if Love doesn't want to resign that is going to be a problem in any deal. I never really mentioned it before because there were never talks of Houston ever really being involved. Just here to give any little insight that I can.
Yeah, I really do believe Love will end up in L.A ... went to UCLA and has family down here.. threw this possibility out about a day or so ago. Lakers fans really believe Love and Westbrook will team up.
Lakers will probably get a high pick and seal the deal before the draft. I think its better that way. Then Houston can focus on getting Melo to the Rockets.
Bet. If they make a haul like this or something like this from another team... Wolves might push for playoff spot. Love is too soft.
Yup, he lives in Santa Monica in the off season and he is down here now. I have always thought that as well. When I met him 5 years ago he always kept telling me that he wants to come to LA whenever he got the chance. Yup...they are just waiting to see how high and I have a feeling they will make a deal after that.
Stack, that is simply an awesome post. Damn near legendary. I'm jonesin' for anything Rockets related. Thanks!
If the Lakers get a top three pick would they really trade it for Love? And before everyone says duh, think about it for a second. Getting a FA star to LA is not a challenge, but having a cheap star taking up little cap room is gold. Love and a broken down Kobe aren't winning crap next year. Parker, Kobe, and Love in 2015 however....
