    ...that's a pretty fierce rivalry. I had a hard time believing they would have seriously considered that but good point nonetheless.

    If I understand correctly, the only reason this has to wait until Aug. 14th to become official has something to do with Greene's status.

    Can somebody confirm and explain this in more detail if it's true?

    Since Donte Greene signed his contract, the Rockets have to wait 30 days, August 14th is when the clause wears off, until they can trade him.

    basically we signed greene on july 14th and you have to wait 30 days after you sign a player before you can trade them, so thirty days later is august 14th

    Thanks, I appreciate it. Man, I hope nothing goes wrong between now and then. I hope I'm worrying about nothing out of pure ignorance.

    i understand he's a project and raw talent, but you saw what his potential was at the summer league. he can light it up. I think artest is more short term reward while he was better in the long run. oh well

    I could read the GARM all night, how great is it to share the excitement with a thousand other fans?

    Hopefully someone let's Morey know how much we appreciate him.
