    If the team is losing its two Asian players, Lin and Asik, will Les' business interest dictate that Morey bring in a replacement to appeal to Asian fans?

    Andray Blatche is now officially Filipino and seems to be a great option especially after representing his home country in the FIBA World Cup this summer. To replace the inevitable loss of Chinese sponsors, the Rockets can sell arena signage to the famed envelope industry in Manila if they want to move more of their products at home and abroad.

    Is Andray Blatche the Asian Chris Bosh?

    He'll be a good replacement for Asik for the "right" amount of money.

    I can actually see it.. Filipinos come in a very diverse variety. Dude's dad or mom got together and the rest is history.

    this team can't afford to sign potential knucklehead players as long as they have a coach like Mchale

    While I didn't really even get a chuckle out of this thread, I'm glad that Carl has at the very least diverted away from the Harden mud slinging campaign for a quick minute. Baby steps.

    How is it that Carl is still allowed to create threads?

    You would trade Harden for Blatche sign and trade, is that right OP?

    so that's how it feels to submit a useless post with no factual evidence only meant to stir the pot. Not nearly as gratifying as you make it seem Carl. I really don't get the pull.

    Les has been known for his big acts of charity.

    Carl has a bright mind on his shoulders...it can do great good or great evil.

    This Carl thread is pretty good. The other ones as of late have been hot garbage. The "famed envelope industry in Manilla" is great. Had me laughing.

    I'd take him. In between good plays are pure gold comedy scenes. Win-win.
