If LA media doesn't think the meeting went well, LA is completely toast. Meanwhile, I don't trust a word they are saying about any of the other teams.
Well no s**t, Ramona. If LMA wasn't "torn", he would have picked a team by now. I wish I could be paid 6 figures to state the obvious. One reason why I don't think LMA wants to go to SAS, or even PHX for that matter. If he was so set on either of those team, he would have signed by now, especially SAS as they basically offer everything he would want (chance to win, be a number #1 option, great coach/organization, etc.) Even if it is between SAS or PHX, it should NOT be a tough decision to make. That's where a little hope for Houston comes along. LMA probably wants us but needs to see us make moves to clear space for him. Morey is probably a little gun shy over what happened last offseason to pull any triggers until LMA2Houston is a real, definite thing. LMA wants to see the moves before he "commits" and Morey is trying to line them up carefully. If Morey can't clear room, LMA will go somewhere else but LMA is giving Morey some more time to make his moves. SAS and PHX are trying to show LMA that they already made moves for him but LMA is stalling for Houston a little longer.
And Microfracture Parsons and Torn Achilles Matthews? This dude is smoking Crack if he thinks going to Dallas is better than staying with the Clips. He must not like Paul (think I remember something along those lines) at all to jump off that ship.
It wouldn't be the worst thing in the world if we just rolled into the playoffs with the same roster we have now.
Don't matter. If Orlando wants to match, they'll match. Best Tobias can do if he really wants to get out of Orlando is to do what Monroe did and accept the QO and become an unrestricted free agent next summer. I personally advocated for the guy waaaaaay back when. He's like what we hoped Mo Taylor would eventually become.
I sure hope this is true. I'm just amazed that if Morey is trying to maneuver for cap space, the media hasn't leaked anything out. I get that the Rockets operate behind an iron curtain, I m not so sure other teams are the same.
Definitely agree if the Rockets are able to bring back their guys. Adding DMo and Bev to the same playoff roster we had is honestly my favorite scenario out there right now.
My favorite scenario involves Durant telling Presti to F off and trade him to Houston for Ariza, KPap, TJones, and Prigs. Then Aldridge says "Oh **** bro! That's a sick team!" Signs with us for the MLE for 2 years so he can get his max contract in 2017. Then Rodney Stuckey is like "alright, alright, alright" and signs on for the LLE and Bev is like "whoa dudes, I want in!" and reups for 4 million. Bev/Stuckey Harden Durant/Dekker Aldridge/Dmo Howard/Capela
Anybody page CyberX? Surely, he must have something to bless us with? What'd LMA order at Dinner with Riley. SOMETHING lol.
Harris's stats look great, on top of that he had nagging injuries all season long, if those didn't keep stopping his groove he probably would have looked even better. Thing is though, he was on the magic... never know how his game would transfer to a contender. Even Turner put up similar numbers on the sixers before he was traded (17 points, 6 boards) then we see he turned into a total scrub the second he was traded to a respectable team like Indy (Pre PG injury).
The 76ers would be the most likely team to be involved in a Rockets cap dump, and Hinkie's cleaned up all the leaks there too.
