    Great deal. The most important thing is that the best player ends up with the Rockets. I'm not a Dwight fan, but there arn't many options out there. You need a star to attract other stars.....

    If that's the offer we're giving up too much.

    No freaking way. Martin, Morris, Patterson, Parsons, and multiple picks im ok with. But the entire 2012 class child please.

    That´s bull****, no ****ing way Parsons and all our rookies leave. And also, taking on that ****ing baby Davis is not going to go down well :S should've kept Scola..

    wat.

    Am I missing something? That's the entire team besides D-Mo. We're giving away our ENTIRE team up? That doesn't make any sense. What would our roster be after this deal?

    Duhon
    J Richardson
    Turk
    D-Mo
    Dwight

    5 players?

    ???

    Wow. That's dumb. Just get Bynum for less. Maybe we can hold on to Scola

    Not sure what to believe any more.

    Morey and Rockets FO seems desperate enough to land Dwight, hopefully not so desperate to send over the entire team, Clutch the bear, and Toyota center.

    I titled the thread with the ESPN article name.

    Credit where credit is due, since they wrote the article.

    We finally get some legitiment young guys with potential and Morey wants to ship them all out, if he does this deal he is unquestionably the worst GM in the NBA.

    I'm assuming this comes with a Howard extension?

    Do it. Just do it!

    this is going way too far now. how could a decent roster be emptied for just one GOOD player that doesnt even want to be here next year. this offseason could be by far the worst in ROCKET's history

    We would have amnestied a 32 year old player with 3 years left on his contract and who is a mediocre starting PF in the league. Sounds about right for a rebuilding team.

    Or we did it to offer Lin and Asik MORE MONEY!

    Crazy Morey!


    Also, of course this isn't the deal. It can't be.

    IMHO a statement deal that Houston's FO can get things done showing to other stars in future
    but getting rid of Turk, JRich and Duhon's contract is not going to be easy

    NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Morey would be the worst GM in Rockets history if this trade went down. I'm so pissed. Keep Parsons, the 3 rooks, and DMo and I'll be happy
