    Unfortunately people tend to hear or believe what they want.

    I think it was a giant mistake for Lowry to play because he clearly wasn't ready and it just screwed up team chemistry. I don't blame this. But he might read it (not that I'm anybody) and attach it to what he already believes: that he's the scapegoat.

    Couple that with the writing on the wall---lose Dragic? or turn Lowry into a lotto pick? AND Coach likes Dragic better---and well, there it is.

    I think Morey will pay 7million per for Dragic. This will be the death knell for Lowry's tenure here, as he certainly won't take very well making less money than Dragic (especially when he had to go to the Cavs to get any payday at all).

    And you think he is more visible than Mark Cuban? I highly doubt it. Cuban is an attention w****. The Radios and News Papers in Dallas spend far more time on the Mavs than what the Rockets get it Houston. Rockets get very little play by the media in Houston.

    Your trying to act like somehow DM is treating his players differently than every other GM in the league and that is just not true. You act like DM using the word asset to describe his players over a season ago has something to do with Kyle being pissed and that is not true.

    Kyle pissed because he wants the Rockets to be committed to him as the starter..... Period and nothing else.

    If the players don't like to be a possible trade piece then they need to be a superstar. If you really think DM talks about it than other GMs you are seriously misinformed

    Answer me this. Which team can an NBA player go to in order avoid trade talk? Not one.

    his relationship with Kevin is severed....

    end of story... who could imagine 2 years in a row...

    Brooks and Lowry gone on bad terms....

    Dragic might go elsewhere...

    and we lost jeremy lin...

    so we could of lose 4 quality point guards in 2 years...

    brooks
    Lin
    Lowry
    Dragic

    During the Yao-TMac era, we had Charlie Ward, Tyronne Rue or even Andre Barret as our PG. Rafer was the best among these scrubs. lol

    #1 Brooks hasn't been very good in recent history.
    #2 Morey got Dragic by dealing Brooks.
    #3 Lowry was acquired by Morey for Rafer.
    #4 Lowry wants to start, his relationship with McHale isn't destroyed.

    No point holding onto Lowry when he called out the Coach in public..

    you dont call out the coach in public unless you want to leave ....

    keeping lowry will destroy team chemistry...all trust is lost between point guard and coach...
