    I have an idea of who doc rocket is and if I'm right about it, I think its been a while since he's been a member of the org and it wasn't on the bball side of things.

    I don't say this to discredit him (I think he has lots of good info and an interesting take on things), I think it proves the point that information can from and go to anyone if you have and keep the right relationships. And if you're not one of the handful of people who are close to these transactions, the information is only as current as the moment in time that info was given (we're all smart enough to know these things change constantly, right?).

    I have not always agreed with your post in the past, but this one is pretty good.

    What was his position within the organization and when did he leave?

    I'm not 100% sure I'm right and I don't want to say anything that could "out" him because I really enjoy his posts and if he needs anonymity to do so I don't want to mess with that.

    Gotta love the irony of both this post and all your recent b****ing about non-basketball posts.

    On another note...

    Counter-challenge: read through all of the "insider" posts in this entire thread and count how many predictions have come true. Then come back here and report what percentage of predictions have come true in this thread. (Hint: 0%)

    Expanding on the counter-challenge: go back and look at the moves the GM has actually made since this thread began, then read through all of the "insider" posts in this thread and count how many of the "insiders" actually predicted those moves. Then come back here and report what percentage of those moves were accurately predicted those "insiders." (Hint: 0%)

    I think this is the part where you're told you're just jealous because you don't have sources to NOT tell you about the moves that have been made so far. Or something like that.

    Don't you dare question jopat. He might not let you join his pay-per-rumor site he's dreaming of. When it happens... omg. You'll be sorry.

    He did. I think he literally mentioned AP in the same tweet as Howard, mentioning the situation was the same and he may be out awhile as a result.

    He's a joke/hack/fraud/fake whatever.

    What I decided to do was click your username and view your posts. Right now you have 617 posts and I couldn't go back far enough to find any useful basketball discussion. I copied your last string of posts here for your perusal. As you can read there's nothing here but insults, swearing, and put downs. As a basketball fan I'm not interested in reading how you feel about me and the other posters here. I'm interested in reading about basketball. So it's time for you and I to part company. From now on your constant stream of insults won't hit their target with me. You have earned your ignore. Congratulations.

    I never want this thread to die. Too much comedy. The consistency is unparalleled.

    I'm putting this out there. Phoenix has a brutal schedule coming up with lots of games on the road. They are only 10-8 despite a fairly easy schedule. I think it's easy to see them fall below .500 soon and see no reason to re-sign Dragic. They are showing the signs of mediocrity familiar to anyone who followed the Rockets post-Yao/pre-Harden.

    I always end up writing like 6 or 7 long paragraphs, but I always end up deleting them because it just doesn't matter. This thread is as useless as a trade for rr.

    PigMiller's post wins the thread. None of these so called "insiders" have accurately predicted anything that the Rockets did this offseason. The fact that posters are still defending them is hilarious and sad at the same time.

    If someone comes to you and tells you straight up "A trade will happen within X time and Rockets will aquire either X,Y, or Z player" they are lying. Period, end of story.

    This guy Drew is the worst of them, total attention w**** who is just trolling without a clue. Comparing Dwight and Peterson? Suggesting its about to get ugly? He posted that nearly two weeks ago and none of it came to fruition.

    Joke is on you guys.
