(1) Sluggish,but a win is a win (2) oh,oh ... oh,no ... not again

The one that is married to will smith?

 

IIRC, go back and find the final post under the name of 'Popeye', and read why he quit that name (and subsequently began to post as oeilpere).

 

dont think i can search as a rookie, wanna share the story?? shoulda be interesting

 

Hey man...good to hear from you again POPS! This thread a ton of pages, so I have no idea how this is playing out. I'll chime in later as I read, but talk about flashbacks! Rockets fans, I give you oeilpere...the legend returns!

 

I hate it when that happens!





Nice to actually be able to read a long thread all the way through without seeing most of the pointless bickering that has been going on lately --although trying to figure it all out is driving me crazy.



Welcome back Pops!

 

Welcome back Popeye, but are you gonna at least update us and post again?

A lot of us were worried about your health.

 

I can honestly say that out of the 586 post, I have throughly read about 550 of them on this thread. That's a whole lotta wasted time.

 

Count me in too!

 

Ok here is whats actually happening...

Kobe wants the Trademark... Jerry West back with the team in at least a consultant role for the team

Now when it comes to with all of the other info if kobe gets traded it wont be and i REPEAT it wont be here to Houston... Dallas is where its gonna be or Phoenix we could possibly be used to be the 3rd team in the deal so possibly rafer could be gon (stagnant start)... to those who thought T-mac was going anywhere have to think outside of the box... as Kobe would possibly ruin the team chemistry i wont lie he is the best player in the league but T-mac is a better team player than Kobe

 

dear skeptics,

keep skepticising.
keep skepeletic seisures going.
keep skepping to my lou.
keep your skepaskillz sharp.
keep on with ur skeepin' on

just check the year you joined and see what you have in common with the other skeptics. it's a surprisingly consistent theme.

For those of you still questioning OP's rep, you'll notice Curly's another old-timer lured out of the woodwork by this thread.

 

this thread is utterly retarted

 

Like I said before in this thread and throughout this forums existence. Its threads like these that make Clutchfans "THE BOARD" (in American pro sports anyways). Check the Whole Foods thread or the -a Sina reporter saw Howard crying in a hospital, his heart is bad- thread. This isn't the typical make up rumors to stroke my ego place. Things come to fruition here. And its beautiful.

 

T(rade)M(ark) is essentially Trade Mac.

 

No it isn't. That would be too easy. It is some kind of clue, but not Trade Mac.

 

I seriously doubt the Rockets will be trading Yao or TMac, no matter how long it might take Yao to adjust to the new system. (T)rade(M)ark is definitely Jerry West having a hand in there somewhere, he might be returning to lakers to run things or cool bryant's head. Rockets might be involved as a third team, and I hope Rafer is gone

 

OP welcome back!!!!!

Your post has sparked some excitement.... I believe RA will be traded along with more that we would like, for someone whos contract will last longer than their help. I thought the Rockets were just boosting 12's trade value untill they could move his almost 5 mil contract.

 

some of you guys are dumber than Stro...

 

welcome O, i stopped posting way back and had to get a new account cos i forgot my password and my old email was deactivated. so yall posters always try to log in every now.

THAT TC must be Einstein,

 

Clearly, a reference to previous trade scenarios. I think this refers to Kobe.

I am sure this is a reference about the trade rumors Luol Deng going to LA. Luol Deng is aging, aging is a reference to throw you in the direction of Deke who can't be traded.

It's pretty clear that he has moved to LA, so his trade rumors are mostly from LA. The trade rumors seem to be growing stronger for a Ben Gordon(complaining star) and Deng(aging african) to Lakers trade again. It seems to be an on again and off again scenario. Kobe doesn't want Deng to be traded. Mitch won't trade Kobe unless he gets Deng. They are at a stalemate. This speculation has been going on for a while now.
