    Then he gives more random "inside" info. Lawl. Apparently Henny is avoiding the Rockets deal because he's scared of Dan Fegan. He's willing to get screwed by the Nets because he's... scared. Of Dan Fegan.

    Lmao, nice trolling bro (Beavis, wherever you are)

    Don't confuse the general public w cf... I very much doubt most regular fans would complain about giving up two completely unproven and pretty much unknown rookies for Dwight Howard.

    I doubt anyone believed him. Just fun to haggle over an imaginary deal :grin:

    ^yup

    Frankly the only insider I put any stock into at this point is YBR at truebluenation, and even him i'm iffy on. He was right on Jarrod Rudolph's report, and the info he gave was something that would be very very risky for a faux insider to give out- if you're trying to fake it and keep faking it you give out vague stuff that's easy to prove right and hard to prove wrong. You don't take a hard stance like that.

    Well, like so much of the Dwight drama, that was time I will never get back. Annoying crap.

    Does Bynum really have family in Houston, or is that just more BS?

    I seriously doubt that's DD, he's a much higher quality poster than that troll.

    Mentioned on CF here.

    So, that is at least some corroboration of that fact.

    I really don't see the point in trading for Dwight anymore, unless some other big name is coming with him. Our roster is so depleted, it would be difficult to be competitive. Assuming Martin, Lamb and Dmo left, and Howard, Richardson came back, we would be:

    Lin / Douglas / Machad
    Jrich /
    Parsons / Morris
    Patterson / Jones
    Howard / Asik

    We wouldnt even really have the salary to send out to nab a second guy like Smith which I feel like is the only legit way to have a decent shot at resigning him.

    I would imagine acquiring Dwight would only be step 1. A LOT can happen in a year. Even if our quest to get another star doesn't pan out, Morey has historically been pretty good at assembling quality role players with little to work with.

    We'd owe that pick to Atlanta, actually.

    EDIT: Oh right, we wouldn't. Well, there's that.
