    Exactly!

    This rumor is nonsense. Why would the Magic trade Howard to NJ without getting Lopez. Why would they rather have Martin and Scola. And if they want Martin and Scola (which they don't), we have a lot more to offer than the Nets do.

    No, this is all nonsense. I'm ignoring.

    Howard is going to LA. Morey better get creative fast, or he'll be out of here by the beginning of next season.

    He will fit in great with Houston's Latin flavor

    Too late to stay put, we already lost Hayes. And, for you naysayers, Hayes was the 2nd to 4th most important player on the Rockets last year, and when he got over 30 minutes (which Adelman stupidly did not do at the beginning of the season) he averaged 10, 10, and 3.5 and the Rockets had a really good record.

    Lock this ish. Nothing more than speculation of a random twitter person. No more or no better than someone posting this in the "Random trade thread".

    I also want to see what the team can do and getting Dalembert will not be that bad with the current roster. I just hope the Rockets can get another C besides Dalembert.

    Wait there's more I found on twitter..

    Bob Vance
    @BobVanceVanceRefridgeration: Rockets not letting the blood produced from being bent over by David Stern put a damper on things, focusing their attention on Brook Lopez. The refusal to part with their upcoming 14th overall pick in the 2012 draft may cause a hang up.

    Hibbert might be the better option

    So the Magic would trade the best center in the NBA and immediately trade away the decent center they would get in return? This trade makes no sense for the Magic because that big white guy that we once wanted plays for the Suns now.

    According to Henry Sanchez's twitter, he is a "Rutgers Alum, aspiring lawyer, movie buff, videogame junkie, sports fanatic, lots of tweets about Mets, Nets, Giants related news and more."

    And he was responding to this tweet from someone named gtosports:

    "@MazzESPN three team deal by the nets that would send Lopez to Huston scola and martin to magic D-12 to BK with hedo could work no?"

    Twitter trade talk folks :)

    because if you give up scola and martin for this trash you're certain to lose a lot more games before a really deep draft!! it's priceless strategy. this is proof that morey is every bit as smart as most of you believe he is. i'm a true believer now!!! just like the monkees!!

    Bob Vance is a fictional character from the show "The Office". It's my favorite show, I would know :p

    So please, no more BS fake reports.

    It was supposed to be as obviously fake as the original "Henry Sanchez" tweet
