    Here is a nice short article Rockets Summer Agenda by Bobby Marks. For those that don't know he is a former NBA GM. Bima follows him him pretty closely as well.

    I think Bima had a different number for cap space with Dwight opting out. I'll take Bima's numbers over anyone else's numbers all day any day.

    Bobby's numbers are consistent with mine. I think he's just including cap holds for Jones, Terry and Smith. The main difference is Jones's cap hold.

    Bobby Marks is the former assistant GM of the Nets. He knows his stuff.

    Harden has to buy into the above concept, and keep himself fit and lean.

    This message needs to be sent to Les, Morey and Harden.

    This team has plenty of money to build a special restuarant outside of Harden's house. Keep everything lean and give him an incentive to go there by having big booty servers.

    Dude will drop weight no joke.

    Apologies to Bima if it has been previously posted but I thought Bobby Marks just released it. Bima posting it makes since. Bima is the reason I started following Bobby Marks.

    The fact that he would include jones in the hold makes no sense. No way rockets keep that hold. They'd just renounce his rights.

    He keeps the the Jones hold because until the Rockets renounce him that hold is real. Once they renounce his rights the hold goes away. He is not dictating terms here he is just reporting the facts as they currently exist.

    Stopped reading after writer said not to lose all faith in Corey Brewer.

    If he's still getting minutes next year I will gouge my eyes out

    Can you read?

    He's basically saying the Rockets may keep Jones contract if they think he has trade value. But, also says he doesn't know what the Rockets will do with either Jones or D-Mo.
