    It's cool that doc rocket decided to post without the cryptic messages. Interesting though that when he finally does that he doesn't even pretend to be offering inside information, just rehashes news stories and offers opinion.

    look at how much media coverage OKC gets

    look at how much media coverage the Cavs got

    if we build a true contender here...diwght will have as much positive coverage with the rockets as he would negative with the lakers.

    I dont think so

    8.5 for asik plus 3.5 for T rob = 12 mil

    Id hope we arent giving Smith more then 12 mil per!! :eek:

    We still need about 4 more million for Dwight if he is getting the full max. Hopefully the league let's us get rid of Royce's contract.

    Don't speak for the rest of us. Thanks!

    It's going to be a long off season. Some of us enjoy Doc Rockets threads.

    DING DING

    Starting in 2013-14, the team receiving the player cannot be above the "apron" ($4 million above the tax level) after the trade1, 2.

    http://www.cbafaq.com/salarycap.htm#Q89


    If the the salary cap goes up to 60 mil (probably higher) we have another 4 million dollar cushion to work with...to then go after sign and trade with smith

    Has anybody noticed the possible encryption in Doc's thread title?

    "HE WIT O WRTTEN".....?????

    I know he said no cryptic messages but human instinct makes us automatically assume the opposite.

    I'm new here. Why are people acting like Doc Rocket gave some insider information? It seems unfair to put that kind of expectation on him considering all he said was his case for why he thinks Dwight will choose Houston.

    Great post, Doc! I agree with all of it, and hopefully Dwight will see the light that is coming to Houston.
