    Thanks for the information, Clutch.


    But, could you provide some of your insight about the state of Tracy's inuries and whether or not you have heard if he will be out for the season because of surgery?

    That's what I'm most concerned about at this point.


    Thanks in advance if you're able to reply.

    A lot of former players don't care for Les. Les has a bad wrap. I'm not just saying this because of Barkley.

    There's a lot of workout camps here during the summer. A lot of players come here to train and get in shape. Robert Horry is always at the gym in Katy.

    If Amare couldn't play with Shaq, what makes anyone think that he can play with Yao?

    he played with TMac in orlando, he's essentially a shooter, no defense.

    I wonder why we're trading Artest, too..

    But getting Amare or Vince Carter would be pretty sweet!

    Mike Miller - ehh, that'd be okay.

    I'm pretty excited about the high possibility of something happening soon, though.

    If teams doubled Yao, Amare would have open jumpers all day.

    the trade works salary wise, but doesn't make sense for us.... as already asked, where do we get a backup PG? bring back the franchise? :D :rolleyes:

    also, according to the ESPN trade generator, we decrease our win total by 6 :confused:

    That's what Phoenix thought when they got Shaq.

    I would do that deal for Amare in a heartbeat.

    I don't get this five-year long fascination with stupid Mike Miller AT ALL.


    Never impressed me. At least not for the talent it would supposedly take to get him in here.

    It's total buffonery, IMO.

    If we can somehow keep AB, then I'd go for the Amare trade. Morey needs to find an alternative to including AB.

    the same obsession with Tmac in Olrando, except Tmac is an All Star and Mike Miller is just a shooter.

    its funny how things went from maybe a little tweak a couple months ago to one of the most active teams this year before the deadline.. things can change fast. With all this talk i would be sad not to see a trade happen now. WHO DO YOU GUYS WANT TO SEE HERE THE MOST?

    It must be due to the behind the scenes stuff that Clutch mentioned. All us fans know is what we see on court and what is said in the papers. There is a lot that happens that the media doesn't get to write about. Not everything goes or gets a chance to get printed.

    It was working a lot better until Terry Porter was brought in.

    clutch said he thinks tracy will be healthy once artest is traded. if that's true, that's some dumb stuff by tracy and they must really hate each other.

    if it's a real legit injury, he's done for this year.

    it would really helps if someone enlightens on this situation.

    artest is going to be traded. feign said it himself the team wasn't going to resign him b/c he has instigated some issues (though he wouldn't reveal). so the rockets want to get something for him.

    The Artest/Head/Landry/Brooks for STAT rumor is starting to look like the Horry/Cassell/Mark Bryant/Chucky Brown for Barkley trade.

    Deja vu screwed? :confused:
