    LOL at those who don't want, arguably the best player in the league. That is absurd. If the Rockets knew they even had a 10% chance at landing him, you better rest assured that they would go all out to get him. Surround him with the players he needs, make him grow up and respect you as a GM (don't think this will be necessary with a guy like Morey) and start planning the parades. This guy WILL win at least one championship before he retires, barring injury. And please don't compare Barkley to LeBron (and I'm a huge CB34 fan), it is clear he's in another tier.

    i kind of have a hard time saying that he veto'd trades outright, especially ones that made them better.

    He's also played in a much weaker conference than the Rockets have.

    Lebron has won the same number of games in the finals than the Rockets.

    Silly argument. His team overachieved ONLY because of him, they really shouldn't have been there.

    Besides that, if he took the Spurs to 7, I'm sure your argument would've been "Lebron has won the same number of championships as the Rockets"

    If you consider all the teams who didn't win the championship every year to be complete and total failures I didn't know what to say. There are varying degrees of success. Lebron has been more successful than most, Rockets included. (Recent years, obviously)
