[Cyberx News] Rockets among teams trying to trade for Bledsoe

We're not getting Durant, people. That's a bigger pipe dream than Kevin Love. If Morey and Les are serious about building a contender and not just making vain attempts at assembling a fantasy basketball roster, they'll start making smaller moves and going after players that are realistic targets(you know, like Kyle Lowry instead of Melo). Otherwise we can kiss Dwight goodbye in 2 years.

 

And Kawii Leonard

 

Yeah.

Bledsoe to agent: "Man I would go to the Rox, but are they gonna respect me in the morning? I don't wanna be just another piece of ASSet to Morey. I want someone who respects me for what's deep inside."

Agent to Cyberx: "Bledsoe likes the Rox multimillion dollar offer, but he's afraid of being used like an asset by Morey: no hugs, no birthday cards, no respecting jersey #."

Cyberx to CF: "Bledsoe doesn't want to be seen as one of Moreys 'assets' either."

CF to Cyberx: "omg thank u. Can I be on ur mailing list?"

He's not a proven source on the thoughts of every player in the NBA is he?

"I think the more important question is why does what say cause you such anger and distress?" Etc.

 

Yeah well that's what I was saying. Ariza and KPap is better than Parsons and effectively 0 backing him up.

 

Another I-know-every-g**damned-thing troll.

RV6, just drop the scraps of meat you are proffering and slowly back away (don't run!). Maintain eye contact, but in no way should you attempt to engage in intelligent conversation for you will only anger it. When you reach safe distance, turn and vacate the area. The troll will eventually simmer down and go back to watching "Rambo" movies.

 

It's only leverage if Morey allows it to become leverage. Morey and his view of players means that if Bledsoe tries to get more than Morey is willing to give, Morey will drop him like a hot potato and move on in search of the next asset.

Time and Time again, Morey has established a price for something in his head and if he can't get it, will either leave his best deal on the table or move on. He doesn't get attached - he is like a shark, always swimming forward, looking for the next meal.

 

Did it seem to you like I was moved to anger and distress from your comments? If so let me assure I'm not riled up about your post. And if you're comparing my comment to you with yours about Cybrex, the difference between what you said and what I'm saying to you is that while both of us are trying to set some boundaries, my tone remains respectful of others and myself, yours doesn't.....which usually means you have other issues at play for feeling as though you have to use such tactics.

 

With Morey, it seems, everyone is an asset. If I were Bledsoe I wouldn't want come to the Rockets only to be shipped out midseason as part of a "bundle", either.

 

Yeah, if I were a player I wouldn't even consider signing in Houston unless the money was outrageous or if I was desperate.

 

That's a pipe dream. You're asking people to give up on assembling their own personal dream team in their minds. Are you crazy? What do you think this is, the 90s, when people valued overachieving hard-working teams like the Rocket championship teams? Those days are long gone bro.

 

Bledsoe too injury prone for Morey's taste? He's the one to talk? Morey is too injury prone for all Rockets fans taste!

 

ridiculous. Most teams are like this, and anyone that is trying to improve behaves this way with whatever players they have. If they don't, or if we didn't, everyone would be slamming them for that. Maybe with Morey it comes off more that way, but honestly, I don't think it's much different for any team that is trying to improve. Perhaps he makes more moves than most, but I don't think anyone was complaining when he landed Harden or Howard, save for maybe the REALLY negative folks.

Some of you folks just seem incapable of being positive.

 

Yea''myh, you guys who say you wouldn't sign in Houston because Morey won't blow smoke up your @ss would be a bunch of diva prima donnas that I wouldn't want on my team. If you need someone to constantly pump up your ego and lavish you with love, I have serious doubts about you r character and fortitude and whether you will give enough to win it all.

The proper attitude is "F you, I'm going to play so well that you'd be a fool to trade me, and if you do, I'm going to make you regret it."

 

they still got titles, it is a team game, don't just single out a position as an excuse why they can't get a title

also big numbers are not the only thing that wins, experience helps a lot

in the 90's were they were saying the same thing about star centres not being able to win titles, apart from Hakeem and Robinson who were the other centres who got a title that decade ?

 

all players are assets

 

Morey doesn't trade stars, he only trades players he sees as replaceable. Unless a player like Durant becomes available, there's no way he'd trade Bledsoe.

 

Morey is looking for a Big Three
