    Stop speculating about things that never went down :rolleyes:


    Lowry will only be traded to net a bonafide star or to move into the top 10 of the draft.

    Imagine our PG situation if Dragic were to go down.

    Both are good PG's, but I still like Lowry over Dragic. I doubt that we go on a six game losing streak and miss out on the playoffs if Lowry doesn't get injured.

    That being said, I feel like Lowry will end up getting traded. Whether Dragic deserves it or not, I believe that he will be our starting PG next year, IF Daryl can sign him.

    Bill Ingram apparently thinks Goran will be gone.

    What is the Rocket’s stance on keeping Goran Dragic; is he a must-have? What are the chances that the Raptors can land him as their new starting PG for $7-8 million per season?

    Bill Ingram
    Kyle Lowry is the must-have. Houston won’t pay Dragic, so I think he’ll be elsewhere. I talked to him about the Raptors, as they want him desperately, and he said he couldn’t take the weather. But we’ll see. Money keeps you warm!

    Reading the chat it seems like Bill Ingram is heavily speculating.

    He seems pretty straight forward to me. Lowry is the future, they're not prepared to pay Goran to be anything more than a back up, so he's most likely gone.

    Bill Ingram not reliable or reputable around these parts so let's just end that. ;)

    Would you trade Lowry for Jason Thompson and the kings first round pick?

    you think the kings would have interest? I know they rumor is they want to shop tyreke...and i'm not sure where Jason Thompson sits with the org. but i've always seen him as a big with a decent amount of size, skill and upside.

    Bill Ingram is an idiot. His disdain for Morey has no bounds and colors his every comment.

    Morey hasn't paid players, it's true, but letting Dragic go would be foolish.

    You either pay Dragic now, or Lowry in 2 years......Bill Ingram is an idiot.

    How about throwing a fastball basketball? To a female ref. In an exhibition game. He un-hero himself, at least to me.
