    to the Rockets? I read somewhere on another thread that you may know something. Is there anything that you can tell us or did someone just post more off season bologna?

    Thanks man.

    He might have been shooting from the hip on that one to get his point across to the bubble bunch.

    Hmmmmm, I can't hardly imagine Clutch just shooting from the hip.

    Boy, I can't wait for the Rockets to make a big trade just so I can tell Gater I told you so.

    Pacers, Blazers, Grizzlies, or Heat????

    The post in the other thread was a bit of sarcasm in reference to old rumors... Clutch reported in June of several rumors floating around one of which suggested that the rockets and blazers may be interested in swapping cato and griffin for wallace.

    No. Nothing that I know of anyhow. It was just an example used in a post and some started joking that it was inside info ... then it kind of rolled when it was getting posted elsewhere.

    Nothing to it as far as I know.

    I try to convince myself that people really aren't that dumb, but alas....

    Good thing Clutch didn't mention Kevin Garnett or Tim Duncan...

    So that's how rumors get started ...

    Good thing Clutch didn't mention Wilt had risen from the dead and wanted to sign with the rocks for half the exception.

    Actually Clutch dropped off to me a tip about George Mikan. Don't be surprised to see him in a Rockets uni this season!

    Well, the thing is.... I would expect two things...
    1) If Clutch was to truly scoop something like that, it woulda been a big fat headlining thread, not buried in a different thread somewhere else.
    2) Just the idea of 'sheed coming here didn't make sense

    however, when Clutch scoops something, I trust it. And when I hear on other threads about this, I wonder what's going on.

    I just kinda figured that someone took Clutch out of context, which is exactly what has happened.

    Sorry, I just looked at your profile. I didn't realize that you are only 15, if I had known that, I would not have called you one of the dumbest posters.

    You are excused.

    Oh, come on, Jackie. Do you think he really told the truth about his age in his profile? He knew you were going to look at it and changed it to make him look younger to make you feel bad.:D
