    "It's not temporary. This is it."
    This time he'd be locked up long-term instead of worrying he'd bolt in free agency. Definitely Dwight.

    I got it with the German Car...


    Kobe had surgery in Germany last off season and it brought back his hops (back to the future). We are trading Parsons for Kobe straight up.

    Cuttino Mobley comeback...'like having a car that can travel in TIME to certain years'...it all makes sense now.

    But seriously, I find the 'German' references the most puzzling.

    The German car reference could be Doc saying Dwight isn't going to Dallas? Seems too blatant though.

    I know you're joking, but the only thing I thought of when seeing 'German' was athletes who went to get blood treatments in Germany. Did Dwight do it?

    Wait....it just occurred to me Tmac had surgery in Germany. So he has that in common w/ Kobe. And he has the back problems and he's from Orlando, same as Dwight. That's how McSorely has something in common with 2 people.

    The Germans played with Bynum's knees this summer too.

    I'm still trying to figure out how this ties in with the original post?.. :confused:

    Anybody got any insight? I am not familiar with doc rocket like some of you so it's hard for me to buy in. Feels like shots in the dark. But who am I question him he's been here a lot longer than I have.

    Although I have noticed that things have gotten very quiet on the Rockets front. Just a week ago there were rumors galore about granger, gay, Zbo, smith... Now nothing.

    If Houston wants Dwight & Dwight wants Houston, why not wait until he's a free agent and just sign him so the Rockets wont have to give up as much?

    No team will trade for him without confirmation from Dwight that he'll sign an extension. Rockets (finally) have all the leverage.

    Because Morey knows Dwight would never give up that extra big-money year he could sign as a team's free agent.

    Okay, so if the Rockets trade for him now are they able to offer him the 5 year?

    Or does he not have a choice BUT to accept less money from the Rockets since he'd no longer be with the Lakers?

    This one I'm not sure of, if we can offer 4 or 5 years, since Harden already is our 5-year max guy.

    I still can't see Dwight being traded---I'd guess more of Al Jefferson---but if Parsons goes, the haul better be a good one.

    Aruba is having a sex change, though we have already talked about this. It won't be some super- glamorous vacation, 'happiness' all around, stars in your eyes.....it's gonna hurt. I don't mean pain like the US entering a war against a German killer, or a killer shooting a German car, but a confusing pain like having a car that can travel in TIME to certain years. Now, McSorley has something in common with two people! Anyway...


    Dwight is getting the surgery,and since he will be out he will go to germany and get treatment on his knees and back.



    I want you to feel perfect before we do this. I'm serious...I want to talk but you gotta call me. I get straight talk from you, y


    Morey promosing to give Dwight all the time he needs to get healthy.


    We could have quite a relationship, Aruba. From the looks of it, you like me. But I need to know, do you LOVE me? Because if you don't, this will not work. Lets make it work, Aruba! Are you intrigued by my proposal? If so, get with 'I AM!' and lets sing hallelujah!!

    This is harden talking Dwight to join him in Htown, But also telling him he needs to sign long term be commited to winning with him or it wont work out . If you agree get with agents and morey and lets get it done

    I'm excited. This could be a daily,planet-wide love affair! A true 1-2 punch!
    Think about it...we'll talk soon. Real soon!
    Dwight and Harden {kobe /shaq}
    Man, this is heavy! ....Doc!

    Summary - KG, Josh Smith, Love, and Dwight are rumored to be on the block and the Rockets could be interested. Other teams would be interested in the Rockets' players with good contracts such as Asik, Parsons, Jones, or DMo. Harden may recruit All-Stars this weekend. The move could go down now or this summer. This could be based on inside information (which would be a self-fulfilling prophecy if something happens) or perhaps anyone could put 2 and 2 together. All bases are covered.

    In other news, the sky is blue and grass is green ...

    Yeah and the McSorley reference, as in Marty McSorely...Like Marty McFly! The film was set in California, and the time machine in Back to the Future was the Delorean by DMC... which is now headquartered in Houston.

    The Heat and Thunder are gonna be in so much trouble if we have that 1-2 punch. We all know how good Morey is in getting key players to surround his stars with as well.
