    Roe4christ, I like that name by the way. Sorry to double post but I didn't write that last post correctly. Was there ever any doubt that Houston would match Parsons offer? I know Morey hates his contract but what was the story behind the scenes with everything. Share as much as you can without getting yourself in trouble if you don't mind please?

    Cuban thought he was screwing the Rockets but the truth is he has just put himself in a bind. He can't sign anyone decent until we match. He is likely going to miss out. The worst thing he did was make Les spend a few more of his millions. Let's say the offer for Parsons would have been at the high side of the rumored numbers $11 mil. So he signed for $4 mil more a year than what they were hoping for. Les reportedly made $44mil last year (with the Rockets). I think Les will be smiling when the play-offs roll around and the Mavs a struggling to make it in the West and the Rockets make him another $44 mil.

    I want to believe, but after a quick look at your history I find it really difficult to accept that you work in or are connected to our front office in some capacity, or that they are signing off on these leaks you share. Just as recently as April 30th, you had this post saying "PLEASE FIRE MCHALE!!" - http://bbs.clutchfans.net/showpost.php?p=8920180&postcount=2726

    I'll bite. Always planned to match Parson's offer sheet from another team, never expected Gordan's offer that drove the price up. Holding breath that no one would offer, but when Dallas did and added the extras it made us think twice. At this point still planning on matching tomorrow unless something unusual happens between now and then. Never know given how this off season has gone. Now, I really need to go. God bless.

    Exactly.....along with all of the vague "info" that he's sharing, I have very little faith in anything that he's writing. I'm not trying to hate with my first post, but roe4christ sort of asked for it. It's nice to know that I'm not the only person hitting refresh on my phone, iPad, and laptop every minute, for the past 12 days!!! I might be in Crested Butte, but I'm a Rocket's fan till the end. Thanks for keeping me informed, and entertained. I'll try to do the same.

    Heat of the moment. Several felt the same at the time. Trust me, I got reprimanded for it.

    Only been on the job for a year. Lived overseas before that. Everyone makes mistakes from time to time especially when your a rabid Rockets fan like I am. I sure most of you can relate to that.

    Roe4christ....give me a break...you'd have to be an absolute idiot to post that about Mchale, if you really worked in the Rocket's front office....you got caught, so either admit your trollness and move on, or keep lying. In regards to Parsons.....I doubt that DM is that wishy washy about matching. "Unless something happens"--this is your out if DM doesn't match. You have no idea. It's time to come clean. Christ would want that.

    Either you are in it for the long con and were masking being an insider until now or you're just taking advantage of people wanting something to believe in.

    Is it for a potential all star level player or a solid role player? I could use the excitement.

    ROE is quite the interesting insider but I buy it..

    I am guessing in typical Morey fashion he has a few moves he is exploring?

    I believe you, I think you're legit. Nobody should blame you for what that clown Bosh pulled on us yesterday. Nice to know that the organization thinks that McHale is not very good too. Hopefully we can get a real coach in here soon. Seems like a lot of this keeping McHale and Parsons has to do with keeping Dwight happy. In the end he may not be worth the headache IMO. But thanks for the information. God bless you!!!

    Do you have an email I could reach you at? I'm a college student looking to go into sports management (would love to go into NBA) and would love to hear any pointers you have on how I could accomplish that.


    PS Thank you for your inside info. As a fan, it makes following this team a lot more fun!

    Ok. But in February of this year you still lived in Indonesia and worked as a missionary? - http://bbs.clutchfans.net/showpost.php?p=8709704&postcount=3924

    As I said, he is either in it for the long con or taking advantage of people. I can pretty easily find if he works for the Rockets on Monday if nothing is clear by then.
