    Guys, I dont have a web source for this, but I was just listening to the "Monsters of the Mid-day" show with John Lopez and Ted Deluca and they had some guy on from Hoopsworld. Apparently there are RUMORED discussions of a TMAC for Wally Szerbiack deal. I happen to think this is false...but they are discussing it right now (12:55) PM.

    Just wanted to get the word out there that this was being discussed...I have ZERO authority on its' accuracy!!!

    hoopsworld = crap.

    the radio hosts are probably the only people in the world discussing this trade... well, and now us of course.

    That might come from spctulation by Sam Smith. Don't ever believe anything Sam Smith or Peter Vercey said.

    Really, there won't be a need for an NBA season if that happens.

    I feel like using this opportunity to recount the myriad reasons why 790 is the worst sports talk station in Houston, but I'll restrain myself for the most part.

    I'll just say that Lopez and his friend (Deluca or whatever his face is) always sound like a bunch of unintelligent, immature high school boys with zero insight or analysis whatsoever. "Hey T-Mac sucked last night! Yeah call us and tell us if you think T-Mac sucked. Hey play that sound, it is teh funnie. Boobies! Yeah she has a nice rack. You know what, I'll post another thong pic on the web site. Now it's time for the lightning round. Just call and say anything randomly stupid, and we'll laugh!"

    Ugh.

    why would anyone with a brain do such a dumb trade?

    szczerbiak is pretty much done as a player. even a 34 year old mcgrady on one leg is better than him. it just doesn't make sense. and from a salary cap standpoint neither. t-mac earns about 21 mio $, so szczerbiak (13 mio $) straight up for t-mac wouldn't work. plus, why would we want cap space for next season anyways? we could always wait a year longer and let t-mac's contract expire. then, in 2010, only yao, battier and landry have contracts so we could really make big roster changes. so why would we trade t-mac now?

    bottom line: tracy mcgrady won't be traded this season and every rumor that you're gonna hear about it is just garbage.

    LMFAO this made my day. Wow. If Morey even thinks about this he should be FIRED!!!!!!. Right there on the spot. Mac is the best thing the Rockets have and why would they downgrade when the pieces are there to win it all.

    Like the saying goes if its not broken don't fix it. Its nothing wrong with this team. HEALTH HEALTH HEALTH is all we need.
