Ha! I was typing something very similar to this in the Paging Bima thread, but then I was like nnaaahhhhh.... I think most of us who have resigned ourselves to the LA ain't happening are more concerned with acquiring another player to handle the rock (Never 4get: 13 TO's = a new NBA playoff record). Collison jumps to the front of that line (besides Kyle Lowry).
Time is playing for us. If LMA wants to go to San Antonio, he should have already said it. Maybe morey is working now on a S&T with Portaland
I think 'unhappy' may be reaching here based on a Collison tweet... Starting PG Darren Collison Isn’t Thrilled The Kings Are Courting Rajon Rondo By Bansky • 07.03.15

When Collison says he wants out, and the Kings just lost two forwards, and we need a point guard aswell as trying to dump a forward (TJ) does that not glare "trade for collison"? if it doesn't then idk what does
Agree. I can't see that the Raptors have any reason to deal Lowry. I can see a logical reason for the Kings to deal Collison, especially if they're getting TJ back. But who knows.
Im betting that Cyberx is staying away for the good of Houston. Having a leak could potentially jeopardize the Aldridge deal or any other smaller deals for that matter.
See I AM important! Look at me! Everyone loves me! Pop compared me to Timmy Duncan! MASSIVE EGOS Dwight Howard goes to Houston because they will run post plays DeAndre Jordan goes to Dallas because he will be the man (lmfao)
I'd love to have him on this team even over Aldridge. Would make us a complete team from starters to bench, top to bottom
Nope, I am guessing he is pissed LMA won't don gold and purple and is drunk over the holiday weekend.
I think a Collison - TJ swap ultimately happens. It's likely Morey's lowballing them with Pap and maybe a 2nd Rounder, to see if they'll cave, or he's waiting on the Smoove situation to play out. IIRC Cyber did mention that at the beginning of FA we gave them an 'exploratory' call on Collison, and the Kings simply no longer need him.
Or LMA really wants Houston. SAS = GSW and PHX = ATL from the Dwight situation. SAS is the media favorite for LMA just as LAL and GSW were favorites for Dwight. And PHX is the randI'm favorite like the Hawks were at the time, other than being Dwight's hometown team. A poster said earlier that LMA and Morey already had a deal in place. LMA is making Houston's competitors like SAS get weake a la trading Splitter for peanuts and letting Bynes and Marco go for nothing. Crazy, I know but still possible
Ingram looks and writes like he was a member of NWO. He has no credibility, his "source" is Jason Collier.
