    Damn, thanks for the info xiki. I enjoyed your posts before this so if it turns out to be wrong and you get the wrath, just take it like a man and keep posting.

    Then beat the crap out of your source.

    Orlando wants cash or future draft picks added to the package, while the Rockets may have already did this it will not be mentioned until the trade is finally complete.

    This is EXACTLY why I don't have a problem with this post. xixi has been around. He knows the routine. He knows the repercussions if he is wrong. It would be one thing if someone who hadn't been around posted it. But, this isn't the case.

    My personal belief is that he is either wrong because he has been misled or got incorrect information or that he is right. I doubt he is lying or making anything up.

    Unfortunately for him, Clutch has been away from his machine a lot the past few days due to circumstances beyond his control. He checks in and I give him updates. It's killing him. Believe me. :)

    This doesn't necessarily help xiki, but...

    My source just told me not to worry at all about the McGrady deal falling through. However, he refused to reveal anything else to me (despite my constant badgering :mad: ). Not much of a confirmation, I know, but considering the people he talks to on a daily basis (i.e. people definitely "in the know"), I feel a whole lot better now.

    BTW, this is the same guy who told me about the Beltran deal (for those of you who venture into other CF.net forums)...

    Just FYI, 740 is the main sports radio station in Orlando.

    I mean, when the man's username is a tautology, how can you not believe him.

    Yeah, My cousin lives in Orlando and told me the same thing. The radio station is saying the deal is done. I hope they have a creditable source.

    Yes (actually rocketsfan34). And I actually shook hands with that legendary character. I was honored. ;)

    That still takes the cake as being the most ridiculous scoop ever I think.

    ... albeit misspelled. :)

    If my source is wrong, you have my solemn promise that his ass WILL be on the receiving end of my foot. So far, he's 3 for 3, though, so I'm not too worried.
