4. Bad coaching He might be a tad reluctant because the last time cyberx posted something that some members didn't want to hear they jumped on him.
That Howard & Harden don't get along or aren't hanging out then they bashed him and told him to go to the Lakers board and now they want his info again. :grin:
The trolls treat him as if he's not credible. But most of what he's said has happened. He called the Brew trade as if he was sitting next to Morey.
CONFIRMED: Cyberx is Morey. :grin: All jokes aside, I think a good amount of us love the info Cyberx brings regardless of whether its positive or negative. With that being said... PAGING CYBERX! Save this thread... for the love of GOD!
LMA is a perfect fit for the Rockets. LMA is a good rebounder, plays solid defense and has one of the best low post games in the NBA right now. Hey they offered Bosh 20 million plus a year contract so we have the money.
I think you should add the word addressable. With Harden and Howard as core of our team, I highly doubt that defense / FTs will ever be good. (Not saying H&H suck, just that they suck at defense / FTs respectively)
Paging Dr. cyberx to resuscitate this thread. Paging Dr. cyberx, please report to the operating room immediately.
Right, but in a S&T situation, it needs to be a pretty strong interest/willing with few other preferences... especially since the Rockets are in conference and a consistent rival. If the Knicks or someone out East are on the list they will gladly say "fine go to the Knicks and just save us the cap room. We are calling your bluff, its re-sign with us for the max or go to the Knicks... S&T with Houston isn't happening". S&T's under the current CBA just really don't haven't really shown that much benefit that they had before with the old CBA. If the Rockets really are willing to shell out major assets to sway a team like Portland to let their star player move in conference then maybe... but it seems rare to see a team do so. We shall see, but I would be shocked if the Rockets aren't going full blast to sign LMA.
LMA or Love. LMA has traction right now. Love is a possibility, too; he's semi-redundant in Cleveland (Thompson and LBJ and, when healthy [almost never], Varejão can man that spot), plus the Cavs are already looking at gigantic expenditures with Thompson due his extension and Delly due a well-earned raise).
Cyberx is dope. I miss Doc, Oilpere, Popeye, too. I hear some of what he says, but our circles are different. What I do know is to watch for the crumbling teams in the west, both of RA's old stomping grounds and in Teresa Guidice (sp?) land. Some fire sales. Owners seem to think the GS method is the new way to build. You get rid of your ride or dies (Monta, Captain Jack for example) and start over. Some players are going to come for cheap with the new cap coming along. Many want out, and BRANDS are everything. Not Elton. I wish we could have some of the Milwaukee guys. My damn, they are talented and young. Cyber mentioned Scola coming back. That would be great. More seems to give up guys and then bring them back, so I'm not going to be surprised if a Trevor Ariza situation happens again. The Drakes have a few and Stackedcramento needs to open some spots up. Karl is going to have a hell of a time balancing those egos. I wonder how he'll do with Boogie. How are you all with the finals? I wish Kevin played Curry the way David is. Sending guys at him flying was smart. I'm not a LeBron fan, but what he's doing is amazing. He's getting those 40 points and taking this series over. I want the GS bandwagon fan base to take the pain. Where were they with Nellie-ball, B-iddy, SJack, Dampier, Run TMC, etc. Ever since Curry came in, their fans have been so entitled that it makes me sick. We've watched seasons where Stevie, Cutting, Walt Williams, Mo Tay, Cato, Carlos Rogers, Pig Miller could barely get to 34 wins. We've also stuck around through the injury tragedies in Tmac and Yao. Shoot, we would have beaten Dallas had Juwan Howard been healthy enough. Ryan Bowen on Dirk? JVG was a genius but that was risky. I miss RonRon playing his heart out and helping us past the first round, AB shooting those threes, Kyle Lowry being a bully, Marcus Camby grabbing 18 boards at age 39, Sammy Dalembear turning the clock back, etc. Those were years were should have done damage. There is next year, but our window is closing. Big men are hard to come by. We need Dwight happy here and I know he's committed to getting healthier and stronger. Chemistry is scary at the moment. Where's Francisco when you need him? lol And, by all means, we need to resign Jet for cheap. He's been great for us. Peace.
Both of RA's old stomping grounds? "RA" = Rick Adelman? But he coached here, Minnesota, Portland, Golden State, Sacramento. So, "both"? That's more than "both". I guess zero in on Sacramento and Portland, maaaaybe Minnesota. Teresa Guidice = NJ. But what player(s)? They won't buy out Deron, so..... What is the "Drakes" reference? Toronto? Lowry, Patterson?
