    "And that’s how Daryl Morey feels right now, so you don’t know what the future holds for the Rockets."

    Feel bad for Martin. He's a good player and a good guy in a bad situation. I think he's frustrated with Morey's style - to each their own. Hope this guy finds a nice new situation or is allowed to have a mentally stable season with us, rather than trade rumors whirling around. At some point, I expect him to accept the situation and not let the non-game stuff distract his game.

    He's not Harvard-educated, man. Stop ragging on him.

    I kind of forgot Martin even existed.

    but if we get bynum or dwight he is as good as gone, which is sad cause with lin, dwight, and martin we probably make the Playoffs. Without Martin but only lin and dwight not so true

    Lin
    Lamb
    Parsons
    Motie/jones
    Bynum

    has a chance at playoffs if Lamb plays like he is playing in summer league.

    Probably not what Les Alexander and Rockets PR wanted to hear from (technically) one of its players.

    Martin's a good guy. He is a specialty player who needs to fit a specific role on a winning team, and unfortunately on our team he never got to play with Yao to do that. As a result, he takes a lot of heat from the fans which is just not fair. He almost assuredly won't be here by the start of the season, but I'll still be a fan of his and rooting for him to go to a situation where he can thrive.

    For awhile I thought I was reading a Tmac quote in a time in a time capsule.
    Gee, we don't know where our future is? Did he really say that? Trade him.

    Man I'll miss Martin... Hell I miss him still from when he cared more. You can tell the coaching change really didn't bode well with him.

    How about when Mac picked the Lakers to beat the Rockets while his team was still fighting it out. :grin:

    he didn't mention any parting thoughts on dragic. He left out dragic when talking about the scola/lowry exits.

    He was making a point about being longest tenured vet on the team. Sorry, there's no controversy.
