    Sauces are always multiple.

    Rockets try to trade away him but failed and why will they match? It seems that he is done as Rockets.

    I can't reveal because I don't want to lose a close friend who has placed his trust in me.

    I have a gut feeling but I am about to take a Tums to see if that alleviates it.

    Will keep you posted.

    That's the risk you run when you mix together multiple sauces.

    Prayers go out to you and your immediate family and/or co-workers with mutual bathrooms.

    Sounds like you should stay away from multiple Sauces and listen to your gut.

    Morey is going to take as much time as he can on this RFA decision, if for no other reason than to send a statement to other teams, if you offer our RFA, we will tie up your money. Setting the precedent for the future.

    Seems like the DMO contact is team friendly so it would be a good match, BUT if Morey has a bigger plan and needs flexibility he certainly could pass. We just don't know Morey's end game so it could go either way.

    Morey tends to have a good grasp on "player market value" and if he needs to move players or makes mistakes he can pivot.

    Absolutely. I'd be shocked if Morey did anything else. Isn't it standard operating procedure when responding to an RFA bid?

    Some dude that has a website and a great moniker. The moniker is the only impressive thing about the guy, in my humble opinion. That, and he's an ardent fan of the Rocks, but the guy has to stand in line when it comes to ClutchFans and most of the members here.

    We informed Nets we would match and engaged in trade talks with them. Restricted free agency is a dirty business.

    Then that means DMo blocked all those trades, because obviously Nets didn't want to go much higher than $8.3m base salary, with no extra fully-guaranteed years. So DMo finally caved and came down in price, and accepted all the waive options....although did get Nets to move the first one to March 1st ... marginal win.

    listening to NBA on SiriusXM they said it was a no brainer match in terms of that offer sheet for Houston. Lot of un-guaranteed money in there

    Sauces: Situation is still fluid. Discussions are ongoing amongst the Rockets top office brass. 55-45 Rockets match. Stay tuned.

    Lol, analytically speakin, we have 8 hours to match even though we are 99.9% certain we will match we must use the time we have to determine if that .1% chance is deemed worthy of additional research. The question is do we have enough conclusive evidence?
