    Tristan Thompson Reggie Jackson and Enes Kanter are the three delusional RFA of the summer.
    Could see all of them taking the QO.
    Want no part of these divas.

    Prediction time. I'm gonna go out and say that Lawson or Knight will be a Rocket by the trade deadline and DMO will still be here.

    If not, we draft next year's Rookie of the Year with the NOP pick.

    Where does Brandon Knight rank for you along with those other 3?

    Thompson will get paid...not max dollars but he'll get paid. Once you're in LeBron James' pocket you're guaranteed to be taken care of.

    Kanter is terrible defensively and Jackson can't hit the three. No use to us.

    You're right! That's pretty funny. I mentioned the misspelled title recently in a post about something else. Perhaps making this thread slightly less of a joke by spelling the title correctly means something. Surely we can get another 40 pages out of that thought! :-D-

    I predict Shved will be traded for a heavily protected 2nd round pick. Hope I'm wrong!

    Besides this blazing hot thread and Dragic smack talk, trade market has been fairly quiet

    Is Feigen really that connected? I know he is the Rockets beat writer but Im sure he only reports what the Rockets let out. I feel like cyber is much more connected than he is.

    I would rather have Cousins over Howard too, but it is never going to happen. Now if Howard was healthy or in 2008 form, then no.

    Feigen is more connected in the sense that he can talk directly to team officials anytime he wants, but he is less connected in the sense that he doesn't give out rumors. He puts out the company line, whatever the team feeds him is what he puts out there.

    Cyber is in an agent's office, but he is not an agent. He hears a lot of gossip that moves through an agent's office and it is filtered through a heavy agent bias. That means he hears a lot more rumors but a lot of it is just gossip.

    I think Feigen is usually pretty good for all Rocket related trade and FA rumors. He gave some detailed info on Dwight trade talks with Orlando, and FA meetings we've had.

    Reggie Jackson has a lot of use to us. He can create his own shot for himself and others. Half of the Rockets emphasis is attacking the basket and he can do that well.

    he's not a diva or delusional and I don't think he will go after the QO.
    Iwould pay up to 14 per .I wouldn't pay that for Reggie who thinks he is a star and demands starter minutes.
    At least Knight is moved off the ball and even says that the star of the team is GA who is a baby. F Off Reggie.
    Please go to the Knicks where you belong.

    My work computer is going to automatically reboot in the next 12 minutes and 22 seconds so don't let anything big happen while I'm rebooting. Thanks.
