That's true, but circumstances are much different there and A LOT of things were wrong with that PHX team. They changed their style of play once they got Shaq...but I don't think a combo of Amare and Lebron is good for us, I think they would dominate the league although many people seem to hate on Amare and his skills here.
Good point but I don't believe Les pulled a Drayton McClain. Les has always been willing to spend on players who make the Rockets better. Butler and Haywood would definitely make the Rockets been but I dont think they wanted Stevenson in the deal but im not Morey so I dont know what the hell is going on.
not quite, washington did say that they wanted to re-tool rather than rebuild...howard still gives them that opportunity...maybe they were lying, but assuming Arenas is back next year, they still have some a nice trio in arenas/jamison/howard.
Yeah and Amare cooled off talks with the 6ers supposedly they thought he'd just leave them in the offseason any ways. That's the biggest thing with him, but I have a feeling Iggy is off the market now. Haven't heard anything from them about him in a few days it seems.
you're drinking the Wizard's cool aide. They suck and this marginal amount of talent isn't going to help. They might pitch it as a reload, but there's no denying the fact that they saved several million.
wat happened to "in morey we trust" ?? i still trust DM and watever happens i know we will be better.
Why does that article mention Scrub Battier as being in the Rockets' future plans? Our only future plans for him should be packaging him with a second rounder to get an expiring.
I know...his contract is probably 3X his actual value. If we could salary dump him it would be a great deal.
I'll pass on Jamison and Butler as long as Dallas throws Beaubois this way, then they can do a deal and keep the deal to a minimum. Beaubois is good player, but i doubt Cuban has time for player development and is in 'win now mode' The kid from France could be a diamond like Tony Parker with many years ahead of him.
I wish we could trade Battier as well. He makes $7 mil a year, is declining on defense and has made himself into a spot up 3 pt shooter only on offense. Hopefully Morey doesnt ask for the moon in trying to trade him in the off-season.
Who knows lolz. They may take their chances on none of them opting out is why. I bet that is a good reason why no panic which is something i thought about. Assuming none of Bosh, James opt out - Where does this put Wade? Bosh will opt out. His agent already said Miami is the place.
