    So they say that the trade cant be made official until the July 12 deadline. Does anyone out there have any insight on whether or not the Rockets can still pull out before it is made official. Maybe us as fans can start a petition or send letters or emails to the office showing our disgust and threaten to continue to not attend games!

    Gay is reallly this teams oppurtunity to have a solid prospect for the future, as well as have a person to take some load of Tmac... this is really depressing.

    Please someone fill us in!

    Also, there has to be more to this deal.. maybe they are throwing in Warrick as well??? I would be somewhat okay with that.. but still pretty dissapointed.

    It is just an agreement, either side could pull out at any time prior to July 12th, but I don't think it happens much.

    It falls apart if Battier or Swift fail their physical...i.e. they get injured.

    I don't live in Houston so I can't do much but you guys need to band together and hold a riot or something. ;)

    The only way i see this falling apart is not by some one failing a physical but by stro failing an IQ test

    The rockets are not going to call off the trade because of the fans or media. tmac is not outraged

    If there is a petition, then sign me up asap. This seems like a really lopsided trade and I hope there is more to it than this.

    Hopefully they throw in Bobby Jackson or I would have rather taken Mike Miller.

    If that's the only way, then we are in pretty good shape. When was the last time Stro pass an IQ? :D

    Clutch,
    Can we get a confirmation that Lowry and Alex Johnson are not part of the deal? Have we confirmed that it's Battier for Gay and Swift only?
