I'm trying to figure out this post on Doc Rocket's Instagram feed: <iframe src="//instagram.com/p/pgt-Jaj-kQ/embed/" width="612" height="710" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" allowtransparency="true"></iframe> I'm guessing the guy with the beard is Harden, and there's a lock on his mouth with a dollar sign, meaning Morey is paying him to keep his mouth shut for now. The pretty chick on the left has got to be Parsons, right? 310 is the area code for Los Angeles, and it says "Hunger" below Parsons' picture -- I assume we're trading Parsons to the Lakers because he's hungry for more money, and Harden has been given orders not to discuss it with anybody. Wheeeeeeeeeee! This is FUN!!!

He has a point, assuming Bosh opts out. But if there is even a small chance Lebron would come here, you have to try. Assuming not, Melo is 1A and Bosh is 1B for me. Bosh is the better fit and has already shown that he can accept a lesser role.
So that means no Melo, and no LeBron. However, Love is still a possibility. He obviously thinks landing Bosh is easier though. Ilyasova would be a decent addition, but highly disappointing after the names being thrown around. And Dunleavy?? He can't be serious. We should be getting PAID to acquire him.
Or maybe he just feels strongly about his position against Israeli Administrative Detention? ....or he really enjoys messing with the CF community minds, and is laughing his butt off.
This guy is a clown. Dwight already said he wants some more help. He's just not recruiting. WHo's word am I supposed to believe?
Obviously if you add Melo, LBJ, Love, or Bosh to your team you will be significantly better. However, adding someone like Ilyasova, and some good bench players can also get our team where we need to be. Before all this talk of Melo, and LeBron to Houston I was fine with some pieces to round out the roster, now I feel anything less than a star will be a huge let down, but... IN MOREY WE TRUST
Part of building (or rebuilding) one's image, is to say and do all the right things in the public eye (TV and newspaper interviews). Believe the guy who purports to have behind the scenes knowledge? Or the guy who only let you see what he wants you to see? Quite the predicament...
Exactly what I was thinking. Also, he inferred getting Bosh...If Bosh is even on the market I would think LeBron would have left too.... Idk, I'll just wait until July 1st. Nothing is making sense.
Literally have no idea what he is indicating. Started talking like a big fish was coming. Then name dropped Melo and LBJ and even Kevin Love. Then says no big three. Then says maybe Bosh or Love, which would create a Big three. I think he is either trolling or b) not telling us anything or c) telling us everything by telling us anything.
I don't think those were any "Insider Info" tweets. I think that was just his opinion of what he thinks the Rockets should do, so I wouldn't read too much into it.
