    I'm just a messenger of this news so please don't shoot, but i know someone who works in the rockets organization and he mentioned that the word going around is that cat is not going to be in the organization any longer and that eg might be gone as well. Details weren't mentioned as to where they might be headed... He mentioned that Rudy T is out the door (as a coach) also. Personally I can't see Rudy T out the door because Francis is attached to his hip. That is unless the Rockets decide to use Francis as trade bait as well which i believe is highly unlikely. I don't think Alexander would want a disgruntled francis disrupting the chemistry of the team though if he knows what's good for the team. I don't know how legit this information is but it would certainly be interesting if he's right about Rudy T. I know this is all old rumor news but remember, i just heard it from the grapevine!!!!!!! :eek: YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST!!!!!!!!

    KeepJuaquin's 2nd post may be the funniest in history.

    No, these rumors have already been mentioned on the board.

    Just more recycled speculation.

    well, my friend is david stern and he told me that the rockets are going to make a deal with the grizzlies and that the grizzlies will send the #1 pick which the rockets will use to select lebron james. they are going to trade yao ming for lebron james because they feel lebron will be more popular. i'm just playin'

    :rolleyes: ;)

    I don't believe you either.

    Don't you know that the only way to get people to think you know something is to talk in riddles. You can't just come out say it. Example....

    There will not be a third episode if Cheech & Chong this because they are trying to get rid of Chong. Someone has hit their 10th life.

    Try that next time.

    THIS IS SUCH BULL LES WOULD NOT BE ASKING RUDY TO PLAN A TRIP TO EUROPE AND OTHER PARTS OF THE US TO SCOUT JUST TO FIRE HIM.

    Their is no word going around because I think if anyone leaked any info like that he or she would be fired.
    Your "source" must be the ball boy.

    Yeah. Or:

    The cake will not bake without flour. The Rockets have no flour in their team cake. A way to get flour is at the supermarket. According to a popular magazine, the best supermarkets are in the city where Rudy T. likes to search for talent. The Rockets will swap this flour for one of their troubled youths by the day where your shadow forms a 90-degree angle on the sidewalk.

    I've heard the same thing. I believe you. Every bit of it is true. But there wont be any talk about the trade until draft day at the earliest.

    teams to keep your eye one. clippers,washington,griz,portland,minny.

    Alot of it depends on the lottery. That why bagoboys source isnt quite clear yet.But talks are on going.

    Am I the only person who thinks there will be one hell of a public backlash around the entire country if Rudy is fired while undergoing cancer treatment? I think Les is smarter than that.
