    The bottom line is that the teams involved in this deal aren't considering it dead

    Resigning JT(guarenteed or not) means they are prepping on losing a wing scorer. I assume the Gasol deal is def. still in play, has to be kept quiet though Im sure.

    The Jordan sweepstakes is still open.

    GS only offering $42/4 years while the Clippers put out $40/4 years

    We could put up $44/4 now without the trade.

    Bidding on Jordan is a canard. The Rockets know the Clippers will just end up matching. Morey's only bidding to keep ALL options open. It would take an insane "Nene-like" offer to pry Jordan away from L.A., and Jordan's not nearly the player that Nene is.

    With the state of chaos at Rockets camp these days and him seeing his friends twisting in the wind by the org, who can blame him?

    But remember, Clippers have a history of being stingy with their money. Their owner doesn't usually put out the amount of money that's necessary [these days] to be a contender

    I feel like Maria when Chino shot Tony. Bernardo and Riff was bad enough.

    Rockets had a solid, smart plan to make Pau and Nene the front line of at least the next three years. Now, they may get neither.

    This a little "off topic" but some of our CF posters were kissing mucho Maverick butt when the Mavs beat the Heat in the finals. Some of us where acting like we should cheer for the Mavs as is we were winning something last year! How ya like those "classy" Mavs now! Cuban & Cavs Owner Dan Gilbert have screwed our whole off season with their whining & b****in! :mad:
