    He said the team WAS sluggish, but we eventually fixed it.

    Look at the + and - during the game, and the guy who had the lowest was Alston. I'm sure there has been some tension with all the guards, and maybe the complaining from Steve is pushing the organization to kick alston out (Steve does bring extra fans into the seats). Even setting Alston up to look like the answer with all the high praise, making a team desperate for a PG willing to pick up Alston.

    Obviously the trade clause thing is Kobe, but Alston won't work for that, so we will probably be a third team. Maybe Alston and Snyder, but I don't know who would come in.

    Just to add to it, he kinda stresses the numbers 1 and 2 a lot. Alston's jersey number is 12.

    The reason swallowing a Kobe deal is so hard? If he comes to the Rockets he will succeed.

    Only because the Rockets will allow Kobe to succeed. But... The media will run it as Kobe pushing the Rockets to success. We can't live with that.

    Ok, this is his 2nd post, which was uncryptical.

    That specific player has to be Francis. So he demanded a trade already?

    A lottery-bound team could seek a dump salary as they look to rebuild.

    Sacramento seems to fit that bill. Artest has a player option for next year and could very well opt out. Bibby has been linked to a couple of trade rumors recently.

    Also wasn't Bibby at the Rockets game in LA?

    Rafer+Francis+Deke+Snyder+(Landry/Novak) for Bibby would work salary-wise.

    Why would the Kings do this? They would lop off around $10 million from their team salary next season.

    Kobe + Tmac = Jordan + Pippen

    just a thought...
    he says that some specific players didn't please RA

    who says RA means Rick Adelman?
    Maybe it's skip, and skip was mad at francis for not actively participating in the lakers game. Also, Kobe hit 45 against us the other day right? He's a trade mark.

    Because Kobe is a ******* of the highest ****ing order.

    Yeah hes Kobe, and it greatly increases our chances of a ring, but there is no one player I hate more then Kobe Bryant with his ego of epic proportions.

    PJBrown, Mike Harris, and whoever else available would solve that. It's also adding more salary as Rockets would be taking on more salary in that 5 for 1 deal.

    Taking on salary means more LT which would "will hurt rocket pockets for a long,long time?"

    Ditto. We missed you oily!

    You've NO idea how craptacular the GARM has become. I typically stay here to post random thoughts.

    That said:

    Why the hell is Rafer here? Only thing I can come up with is that we are playing him to garner trade value. He flat out sucks. Period.

    Yeah, but it doesn't help when he demanded to have arguably the most dominant player in the last decade traded.
