    You're the same guy believing a kid in Philly. But you are questioning the owner/operator of the site you feel obligated to consistently share the "gospel" words said kid puts on twitter?

    C'mon.

    You do realize Clutch is a credentialed media member with complete access to the team, right?

    My advice is to just accept the source, and be thankful for the information. :rolleyes:

    Clutch is the source. It's all there in that tweet ... the league informed ... and Clutch reports it. What are we missing here?

    Dude this isn't about questioning clutch. Stop brown nosing!

    I would think that all the media outlets and twitter feeds would be updating with this news with all the Omer Asik sweepstakes hype that have been going on the past few days.

    I haven't seen any mention yet on other outlets apart from what clutch has mentioned.

    I am not stupid I know Dave goes to games and does interviews so on and so forth.

    It is widely known here that Clutch has people inside the organization he knows. When he states something like that, it is assumed that he heard it from his source. Nobody questions it because you don't keep a source if you run around and tell everyone who he is.

    So is it the 19th or 20th? Or by tomorrow does that mean the 20th since It is technically already the 19th?

    I have no clue what the deal is. I wouldn't be able to get that from conversations I had tonight. I believe however that the trade the Rockets are willing to do has been in place for a week or two... so my guess (and this is just a guess) is it involves Philly. A deal with Hinkie is probably one of the few things the Rockets would feel comfortable relying on... but again, just a guess.

    Either you're offended because I asked people to keep this thread to actual news sources and not news regurgitators, or you don't know what I'm doing at the Toyota Center right now. I really don't care either way. The info is accurate.

    Another day of refreshing this thread.

    Damn ...

    I'm off for today then. I think it'll only happen right at the deadline.

    Not clutch's source man. *Facepalm*

    Maybe ESPN/Yahoo would know this and mention the change.

    Like something that the "self imposed timeline" has been moved to Dec. 20th.

    BTW nice interview with Bill Fitch a month back Dave I listened to the whole thing ;)

    If we do the deal with Philly, I hope we get Furkan Aldemir back.

    So, Daryl Morey just followed Paul Milsap on Twitter. For whatever that is worth. PLEASEEEE let this be true.

    From reports, the Boston deal that was "in place" was not even close, as Bass wasnt included in any proposed deals with the Rockets.

    I was told clearly it's still going to happen tomorrow (as in Thursday, Carl :)). How this came about is I asked for clarification on if the Rockets had until a certain time on Thursday or until midnight. That's when I was told the league actually informed the Rockets they have Friday to use as well. The deadline is not a "set" date... it's 60 days before the trade deadline, so I assume how they counted those days was off by one because they counted them in a different fashion.

    The Rockets still plan to make the trade on Thursday because they've followed that timeline throughout.
