    Matters whee you draw the line for superstar, but honestly, for a while the only superstar PGs were Nash and then it went to CP3 and D-Will.

    I thought this might be a reference to the things he hears as rumors. They are real and yet not because things are so fluid a week from the deadline.

    These are the three Doc Rocket posts again, for anyone who doesn't want to keep flipping back and forth.

    And...

    And

    Can't help but wonder on the last if it's simply stating how another team is asking for Parsons and we don't want to yield him. If this is all for Dwight (I still doubt it), we could sign him outright in the summer, especially if we trade Asik to a team with cap space; then again, to give Dwight the best contract, we'd have to get him in a trade (Bird rights) to give him the best deal.

    Any player of less than DH12 and no Parsons, period.

    could the cat be a wildcat?

    the references to a German Killer (Adelman) and Love leads me to believe he is going to be the second star we trade for in hopes of attracting Dwight in the offeason to create a daily,planet-wide love affair

    If there is a hidden meaning in the schrodinger comment outside of time and quantum mechanics...you can take your pick of angrams:

    Serious question. How would we be able to trade for Love AND sign Dwight? We have a max in Harden, another would be Dwight, so how could we afford Love and still fill out a squad? I'm no Bima, I need some insight.

    Thanks.

    I agree with your thoughts. I think we are trying to acquire Love and then trying to get Howard in the offseason. I think we will lose Parsons :( in a trade for Love or Howard. I am trying to figure out how we could get Howard in a sign and trade without losing Asik and Lin and I really don't see it. I think if this is in fact the coarse Morey is taking then we will lose 4 of our starting 5 to gain Love and Howard.

    Player X
    Harden
    Player X
    Love
    Howard

    I think it is possible but we would be like Miami and have a bunch of scrubs on our team. We would have to hope vets would sign cheap to chase a ring and that some young players perform well.

    Douglas/Beverley
    Harden/Anderson
    Delfino/White
    Love/Morris
    Howard/Smith

    Awesome team right there. Surround Harden, Love, and Howard with shooters and we are set.

    Magic and Jalen Rose did claim Love wasn't untradeable.

    Aruba is having a sex change, though we have already talked about this
    Howard is getting traded

    I can only afford for one person to switch and it will be you, my friend.
    Houston only has cap space for one more max player

    It's not temporary. This is it. This is the BIG one...
    Will require a long-term deal.

    It won't be some super- glamorous vacation, 'happiness' all around, stars in your eyes
    Houston is no LA - no glitz and glamor, no star-studded cast

    .....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.
    Not like Kevin Love or Dirk Nowitzki's injuries/surgeries - more complex procedure to restore Dwight's back and bring him back to 2010-11 form.

    Now, McSorley has something in common with two people!
    Howard aka "McSorley" will head to Germany just like Kobe and Bynum

    Now, if you want to do this, you can stay with me in Houston, but....it'll be different, different than you think, different terms. 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, you'll get no smooth talk from me. Talk to your family and friends and lets find a time to discuss when we've got all kinds of lines of communication open and easy all-access to each other. I want you, Aruba. You need to want me and trust me, too.
    No pressure, no big sell job to Dwight. No smooth talk = no Josh Smith

    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!!

    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!

    Harden will work on Howard over the All-Star break and go over details/fit.

    agree with my friend. Harden + Deron now. Convincing Dwight to join in the offseason longterm
