    Lets look at the only facts, MONEY & GREED!!!. Why would Hakeem halt a S&T deal the other day with Toronto? (to up the money from the Rockets). Why would Feagan come out and DISH the rockets, and take no other team offers (to up the money from the Rockets). Feagan states that money is the last conern of Hakeems (to up the money from the Rockets).

    They are trying to make Les SQUIRM, but at this point who knows if it will work!!! Les just might give Hakeem, and his ego, the boot out of town!!

    I think he is just playing games, and come next season he will be in a Rockets uniform counting the pennies in his piggy jar!!!!

    Sadly, that report came from Peter Vescey, who is usually wrong.

    I'll be suprised if he stays! But I'm laughing my *ss off at that lame and totally transparent spin doctor attempt by Fegan yesterday. Fegan says my client has instructed me not to field any other offers....translated into to plain english the Rockets made it clear to Fegan that this was a FINAL OFFER!

    The last I heard was just a published report suggesting a first round pick plus the exception, but that may depend on salary, etc. I would be willing to bet the Rockets would prefer to let Hakeem go than take on more salary.

    i agree...that would make the most sense. the last thing i want is Yogi or other assorted deadweight on the team. i'd much rather have a pick or two or just have the cap room.

    looking at toronto's available players, the only one worth having IS keon clark. now keon would be real nice, but is toronto willing to part with him???

    N-E-waze, thanx for the info, Jeff.

    Jeff, how much you want bet that Feagan leaked it to Vescey. Feagan is loading up the media, to benefit his client. It seems we are in a game of Cat & Mouse?

    I admit it...I said he would stay after sufficient ass kissing.
    Maybe CD's lips got chapped.

    He's very popular, Ed.
    Sportos, Motorheads, Geeks, Sluts, Pinheads, Dweebies,Wonkers, Richies, they all adore him.
