    Thanks God .. Toyota Center is too big to move:rolleyes:

    What the hell is Morey doing .. He needs to hold on to Parsons and either white or Lamb.

    Otherwise We will be the Orlando Magic with one big change

    Losing all those players and taking on those toxic contract we would essentially become Houston 'Magic'. How would you convince Howard to stay if you had the same roster around him? You wouldn't.

    ESPN surely has as much idea of what is happened as we do. (No idea).

    So we get all their trash (read: bloated contracts) + Howard, and they take our young players including the three first-rounders this year.

    :eek:

    The Magic better AT LEAST throw in Magic Kingdom, maybe Hollywood Studios as well.

    I don't buy this report at all. I think at least two of the rooks would be gone but I don't see all plus All picks from last season (minus DMo) plus future picks plus Pat and Martin and all picks from this season.

    Bill Simmons was only somewhat joking when he said Morey would trade his wife and daughter for Dwight.

    If the extension is guaranteed then get it done this instant!

    If no extension then drop talks this instant!

    Lol that just can't be true. That would leave the Rockets with basically no players apart from D-Mo and Dwight! I'm calling fake on this rumour.

    We're not rebuilding if we amnestied Scola for the chance at getting Dwight Howard.

    Gawd, I want Howard here, but let us keep at least one of the rooks!! This doesn't sound good at all. HOWARD better recognize all we are doing just for the opportunity to build around him (if this rumor is true). If he bolts, we are totally screwed!

    You should have titled it Article because there is NOTHING about the Rockets submitting ANYTHING!!

    This will just cause chaos in here.

    This deal would make much more sense if it comes with Dwight signing an extension…

    I'll suck up Turkeyglue's contract to keep Parsons/rooks.

    Absorb all of their garbage, ship out Patterson/Morris/Martin/Toronto pick/Dallas pick/2nd rounders and CALL IT A DEAL DAMNIT!

    Scola doesn't fit in our plans even if we don't get Howard. We have 5 young PFs already so amnestying him is good for a rebuild project anyways.
