    McGee just signed his new deal. Don't think he's eligible to be traded yet.

    wonder if we are chasing delfino in anticipation of completing the DH12 deal? that is the only way adding delfino makes sense. so many questions, so little information!!

    Why would the Magic take Gasol and Afflalo when they could get our young studs and first round draft picks?

    Daryl Morey made the quote of his career a couple weeks ago on the radio when the host told him that we were all afraid that we would lose all our assets in a potential Dwight deal only to see him leave us and screw us over with a bunch of saddled overpriced contracts from Orlando in the process. Morey replied essentially, "Chill out, it's not like we're all of a sudden going to take stupid pills."

    That right there alleviated all my fears. Let Orlando shoot itself in the foot to spite its leg. We've got our best interests covered and won't stray from it st to appease some butthurt rookie GM.

    And to think how much closer the Rockets would be to a deal if they drafted Faried, 6-8, forward.

    Faried's ceiling, though, is Josh Smith. Very nice, but he's never going to carry a franchise.

    Saw a report about it during halftime of the Chargers game. They said a deal could be done by tomorrow.
    Big legs starting to move?

    SOURCES: Orlando agrees to send 10,000 boxes of Sweet Tarts to the Lakers along with Dwight.

    If I were Henny I would totally threaten to call it in and see if Morey budges

    He can still back out until it's a done deal. Still would not be surprised if he's bluffing
