Rockets trade D-Mo, Thornton to Pistons for first round pick

I knew the Rockets were going to f₩₩k it up.

 

A 1st for a soon to be paid Dmo is fine. Morey didn't want to pay him.

Im hoping this means we have something in life for a long term starting 4....looking at you Klove.

 

Here comes the inevitable DD thread ranting about something

 

We have no competent power forwards now

Fire Morey lmao, this is ridiculous

 

worst trade in Morey history.

 

D mo is our best offensive player in the post when healthy with room to grown. Did not want to see d mo traded!

 

woooooooooooooooooooooooow

 

Has to be to make room for a 2 for 1. wtf

 

DD faints

 

How protected is this pick?

 

I think it's likely we repackage the pick with other assets in a bigger trade soon. Hopefully.

 

How protected is that pick?? Better not be lottery protection!

 

I seriously can't believe the one report so far today that followed through was Joel Anthony for D-MO

 

if there isn't a bigger trade coming up.. im gonna **** bricks..****ing joel anthony!!??!?!?

 

DD is crying.
DMo back must be bad.

 

D-mo for no more

 

Well hopefully something else big happens because as of now we don't have a starting caliber PF
