They are basically posting conflicting views on what exactly is going to happen. Doc is saying we are getting Ming, while Oelipere and Rocket!!! are claiming we are trading the pick. I for once am not believing anything these guys are saying. No disrespect to any of the three guys. I really appreciate any and all inside info. But I am starting to believe that somehow CD is behind all of this. Clutch has claimed that many people who work for the Rockets and officials of other teams read this site. Well if I was CD, I would be telling Doc, Oelipere and Rocket!!! to post different stuff as well. So I am not holding anything against our three inside sources as I would be doing the same exact thing. What better way to throw opposing teams off the track or scare them then to post conflicting news on the best basketball site on the net?
I believe they all three should not talk again about their sources on this particular topic ... until after the draft. I'm glad they seem to be grasping this now. I'm glad Doc told us all the not talk about the #1 again. I'm glad oeilpere is in agreement. Now can someone splain this to TroyBaros maybe. Can someone splain to Troy that he is hurting the Rockets by repeating something Francis said (if it is true). We all scream at Mobley and Francis for tipping their hand, and we all talk about how the bbs is being watched closely by the bball world. Uh, to scoop or not to scoop ... that is the question. There are times when you DONT talk. Like when you are trying to trade Dream and when you have the frigging #1 pick in the Draft!. This is the most important decision in Carroll Dawson's career. If some blasted employee in Greeway blurts something to you, he should be fired, and maybe you should consider not repeating it, because this is the NUMBER ONE PICK we are blurting about!!! To scoop or not to scoop ...
btw: I think it is all a setup by the Rockets officials. You can call my opinion "damage control" if you'd like. If I were Carroll Dawson, on Monday morning after the lottery, I would have called the most trusted inner circle (Rudy, Boylen, Smith and the scouts) into my office and given them each a unique rumor to give to one person outside the room. Then I'd sit back and read this bbs waiting for the rumor to hit. The moment it hits, I know who to fire.
I had the entire post copied, but I guess I better remove it. Thanks for the awesome scoop Doc! Just kidding people!
I don't know. Can't tell what "deleted and moved" means. Maybe a trade? Rockets03 probably knows though
Setup all the way...What an awesome way to throw other teams off and raise the value of the #1 pick. I wouldn't be surprised if we started hearing things about JWILL in the next week or so. Make the Clippers, Bulls and Warriors very aware that we are looking at all possibilities and make them do all the hard work to find a solution. Awesome.
