    hey guys I know i don't post much,thats because i come and read what you guys with connections
    have to say and the rumours that are going around.anyway i just started a new job about two months
    ago and i have become friends with a female co-worker who happens to date one of our rockets
    he comes by and picks her up sometimes and i have spoken to him often.anyway the other day we had a company
    get together and he came and he and i had a nice long conversation about the organization and
    whats happening.and i got some goof info,and he asked me to keep his name out of any talking i
    do about this,so I can't say his name for i know i will want more info later and i do not want to mess this source if you call it up
    any way to the info.
    1.he along with some of the other rockets call Cat evryday to see where he stands,and based
    on their last talk.mobley is about 60/40% he will stay a rocket.he loves houston he is very close
    with the guys and loves rudy and Cd and he loves that they beleive in him,but he is getting calls daily from teams
    trying to get him to play for them and it will hard to turn down a 5or 6 million dollar a year
    contract.but his heart is still a rocket and it would really have to something special to make
    him leave the team that drafted him and gave him a chance,plus francis will not let him go with
    out a fight.
    2.Cato is working out everyay and has bulked up some and CD is helping him with a jump hook.
    he feels cato will be much better this year for us.
    3.and he thinks austin crosheer will be a rocket.he thinks that Rudy and Cd can talk anyone
    into playing for them and guys really like Les as a owner,he is always making sure everyone is happy
    and the org is top notch from top to bottom and they made sure Austin saw this.and if it was not for the aug 1
    rule he thinks that Ac would have stayed here and cancelled other trips,but since he has some time
    he was going to go on his trips to other teams.but he stills like our chances.
    4.last don't be surprised if we do make a trade soon after aug 1,and he hopes he is not involved
    because he really loves playing here and would be hurt if he had to go.he wants to retire here.

    now i know alot of guys will not beleive me on this,because this is my first post like this
    with 411 and all but it really is the truth,and i have no reason to lie.iknow how critical guys
    are about rumours here but you can take or leave it.and as i get more 411 i will post it.
    for i see a freindship growing between he and I.

    Truth or Fiction? I don't know... but be nice.

    Anyway, how much better would the rockets be with mobley back in the fold, scoring at the 4 spot with croshere (spelling?), and an improved cato. God and if Hakeem can just give some productive minutes.

    Bigdee,
    I, for one, tend to believe people until they prove they shouldn't be believed. You know, fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me. Thanks for the post.

    Ok, so the guy is under contract. That means it is one of the following:

    Hakeem Olajuwon
    Kelvin Cato
    Shandon Anderson
    Steve Francis
    Kenny Thomas
    Walt Williams
    Carlos Rogers
    Bryce Drew
    Matt Bullard

    Hakeem, Shandon, and Francis are all untouchable so they are ruled out.

    Now most likely the only person who would really get into Cato stuff is Cato himself, so that is a possibility. Not to mention the organization treated him pretty nicely with that contract.

    However I wouldn't rule out Kenny Thomas, Carlos Rogers, and Walt Williams. They seem to be guys who are really tight with Francis, Mobley, and Anderson.

    Hmmm, what a mystery [​IMG]

    Bigdee2898, I believe you are telling the truth. Everything your source said makes sense.

    I hope he is right about us getting AC. If we were to sign Croshere, I don't see why would need a trade, unless the Pacers and Rockets do a sign and trade with Croshere. Getting AC would greatly help the Rockets weakest areas, Defense and Rebounding.

    Moestaven, I thought Malone said Bull was gay, so your Mom and Bull must be only girl friends! But I believe you both!

    Take NewGuy's list and figure out which ones aren't married. Wouldn't that have been a better place to start? I hope so anyway.

    The source said he wanted to retire here. So obviously they've got retirement on their minds, that probably rules out the younger guys, they never really think about retirement...

    in my book that leaves
    Walt Williams
    Matt Bullard
    Carlos Rogers
    (Hakeem is married so he's out..)

    The only thing wrong with this post is that Big Dee has no rep.

    BUT...

    Why call him a liar? We don't know the guy and he might be telling the truth. Last time I checked, there are alot of single guys on the Rocks and he could be dating D's friend. Who are we to say no?

    Lets see what happens. Remember, Popeye had to build his rep. And remember how we all laughed at the "mall guy" when he overheard the Rockets making a move on Francis.

    Kelvin Cato may be talking about retirement. He has spent a couple years in Portland and may see Houston as his home for the rest of his careers.

    Does anyone know the marriage situation with any players? That could help us solve it.

    Also, I've had more posts than Bidgee, I unfortunately had a run-in with the admins and had to change my name. If you want to know my secret identity, check out the feedback forum and the post with like 40 replies, it's from a few days ago.

    So, now there are two mysteries. Who is this Rocket and who is NewGuy?

    Why does the Rocket have to be unmarried?

    I think grummett is heading in the right direction. Just because a player is married doesn't mean he doesn't fool around [​IMG]

    Grummet and BobbFin,

    Just ask Magic Johnson about fooling around.
