    Do anybody know if Les still has the $30 million stake in Anta or did he sell it after the IPO? It looks like Les may be leveraging his company contacts to provide extra pay to Rockets, without him having to open his wallet.

    We can use shoe deals as a way to get free agents.

    wow that means like half the 12 man team got contracts with chinese shoe manufacturers.

    SF, Scola, Batt, Hayes, Wells...who's next? I think Stromile woulda had one if he coulda stayed on the court for more than 25 mins a game.

    Any ideas about commercials or slogans yet?

    The slogan for the campaign around Bonzi can be "It Takes 1."

    How about slapping a wig on Bonzi and calling him the Queen B?

    It's amazing that even the coach is sponsored. This is a rare sponsoring right?? How many NBA coaches are sponsored (let say Pat Riley, Phil Jackson, etc)?
