    Cockblocking Blazers at the 6th pick would be sweet, sweet, revenge for 2006.

    Yea Morey will highjack the Blazers

    i think he will force the Blazers to give up some valuable assests

    I dont believe Morey wants Lillard. But Morey is an effin genius

    I heard a rumor Lakers would take the 18th pick and Lowry from Lakers fans. But its for Gasol. and its their fans grasping at straws to get anything now.

    We'd have to send Scola to make the salaries work. Even so, I would do Scola, Lowry and 18 for Gasol.

    So with Lowry already on the roster, and the possibility of re-signing Dragic being open... the Rockets real target is Damian Lillard?

    I'm not buying that.

    Don't believe this.

    All from Lakerland I bet.

    Bucher was just on ESPN saying the Rockets were trying to get Gasol since the Dwight thing isn't going to happen.

    It's funny because he said it makes a lot of sense...for the Lakers...I don't think the dude even thought about how it makes no sense at all for the Rockets.

    Not resigning Dragic would allow Rockets to offer Eric Gordon the contract that Hornets would not match, correct?

    Potential line-up looking like:

    Lillard
    Gordon
    Parsons
    D-Mo?
    Howard

    Exactly.

    See: other posters' theories of a Morey smokescreen.
