    So weird how Aldridge apparently wants no part of Houston. The Suns being his second choice after San Antonio is just laughable. Harden and Howard are better than anyone one the Suns, by a significant margin. Maybe he just doesn't like Harden and/or Howard.

    Who knows.

    In Phoenix, Aldridge can be the steak. In Houston, he'd have to live with being asparagus.

    Has he outright said he's not picking Houston?

    There is no reason whatsoever to think LMA might come here. We can talk forever about how he should and why it makes sense, but there's not even a hint. Why are people obsessing over this? Why on earth would there be not a whisper in the media about this one thing?

    Doesn't make any sense. You guys need to get over this. We're not going to get a big name player every single year. Morey tries for every single one and that's something we can respect. It's always worth a try.

    I want to know what they are thinking and what they are doing right now. We need an upgrade at PG, a decision on the PF position and a backup SG who can score is a nice 3rd priority. We need to figure out how we're going to improve on our 3rd best record in the league.

    Just curious, how much is Morey paying you? Do you work at Toyota Center? Are you that annoying dude at ticket window #2?

    Yeah, because Morey trusts the guy at ticket window 2 to go on Clutchfans and be his propaganda machine :rolleyes:

    Sounds like nobody has a clue what's going on. We won't know for at least another 24 hours, most likely much more than that.

    Regardless, I trust Morey. I trust him more than any other GM in the league. He has a plan... as well as a plan B, and a plan C, and a plan B for that plan C.

    Time to just sit back and let it happen.

    Someone say stay? Stay will never be the same. I'll never forget the Lakers billboard. :grin:

    Because the media doesn't want to even talk about lamarcus coming to Houston, it's every teams nightmare, they'd much ratch talk about lamarcus going to Phoenix or sa, but if lamarcus come to Houston, the rockets will be the team to beat for the next five years... Don't count Houston out yet...the night is darkest before the dawn.

    The deal made me smh because all reports were that Dudley was both a contributor and a very positive locker room guy in Susdtown, yet they dumped him...within their Conference?

    Dudley does not, to my knowledge, fill a need (or even a want) here at The ToyShop. But, still - - the guy is an 'asset'.

    Um what?

    Frankly, it doesn't make sense for him not to come here.
