    You're like a mosquito. Wherever you go all I hear is whining and complaining. Coupled with a lack of intelligence...

    Just stop posting stupid ****...for a DAY. Just a WHOLE day.

    I bet you can't even do that.

    1st - that is your oppinion and maybe not DMs
    2nd - being the best player on a team team does not make you something other than a role player. There have been 0 stars on the Rockets the last couple of seasons.

    Has anyone confirmed that Kevin Martin actually said this? Since it's in quotes, I assume it's a quote directly attributed to Martin.

    ObamaFan, could you please provide a link where you got the quote?

    Maybe agents are sick of Cuban, Walsh, etc.. All just you come up with baseless theories.

    "I was telling Daryl, going into the season 90 percent of the people on the team felt like a trade asset," Martin said. "Having everybody looking over their shoulder, that's not going to get you anywhere. Hopefully, next year is a little different at the beginning, we get off to the right start and play like we did after the All-Star break."

    That fool should be happy he is being called an asset, because truth of the matter is, he is a liability, especially on Defense.

    OK, I get it. Great troll account, bro. I was frustrated by your posts for a while, but I just had an epiphany. It's just not possible for someone to believe their own circular logic to this extent, unless it's for religious purposes.

    I should start a Kevin Martin "feel good" thread titled:

    Martin enjoys Rockets' family

    My post would begin:

    Martin says Rockets "felt like family after the trade deadline".

    how did he treat his players like an assest, he traded Jeff Green who wasnt really progressing for a big that they needed, and they were able to go to the WCF in 2011, and the NBA Finals in 2012( losing to the eventual champs both years). You cant really treat a player like an assest, if your team actually gets better after the trade

    There are more than a few words in this "paragraph," that you need help defining.

    Users that become contributing members get an edit button. Contribute to the site so you can get one too.

    This would enable you to:

    Correct the spelling of asset
    Add an apostrophe to "wasnt"
    Add an apostrophe to "cant"
    Again, correct the spelling of asset
    Capitalize "how"
    Change that , to a ?

    ...among other things
