Bits of CD's interview were played a number of times, and were commented on by both morning and afternoon guys on 610, etc... What your "source" said was just a direct recap of that news. Sorry to rag about it, but you really got our hopes up.
what are you talking about? agreements always happen on negotiations and the player signs with someone else.. until he signs nothing is final.. he had the same agreement with dallas and minny.. he agreed that if they give him everything he wants then he signs with them.. he asked for a trade kicker and only one team gave it to him and he signed with them.. its nothing new.. or "wrapped in secrecy".. or is your source implying that MJ bamBOOZERed the ROX?
Yes, I knew when I heard it and posted it, it may just be "chopped and screwed" Public info, although, since I here most of that stuff, I hadnt heard the situation in such greay detail. Vlaurelio-while the Boozer affair, was far far more public than any of the Mike James stuff. The Boozer story being a pretty big national one indeed. But yes, that is what I have been trying to communicate. The Rockets management thought it was all done. They thought they had MJ basically, and then comes the Kicker talk out of right field, and it all blew up. Sorry, I just did not know all that was necessarily known, and just kind of passing it on, as most other BBS'ers would had they not been aware of the info.
The whole response to this thread was a little mean (somewhat understandably, with all of the buildup I was disappointed when I got to the info), but this was a LMAO comment. Kudos Sammy.
It's all over man. Mike James will never play for the Rockets anymore. Please no more MJ thread. Thanks!
That's too bad too because with him and then the other piece we are going to add (either a SG or a PF), we would have been set for multiple championships. I think James is going to regret this one.
Here are the transcripts of some secret tapes I received from a confidential source (MJ's kids): Wife: WHAT? YOU SIGNED WITH MINNY FOR LESS MONEY? AND NOW I GOTTA FREEZE MY @$$ OFF FOR 10 MONTHS OUTTA THE YEAR? DON'T GIVE ME ANY OF THAT "I'M MIKE JAMES, BIYACHH" SHEET OR I WILL COLD **** YOU FASTER THAN ARTEST AND CHOKE YOUR SKINNY LITTLE NECK HARDER THAN LATRELL! CAN YOU SPELL APARTMENT? IT IS TIME FOR YOU TO START TAKING YOUR MEDS AGAIN STUPID! I'M CALLING DOUG CHRISTIE'S WIFE AND FINDING OUT HOW SHE OPERATES 'CAUSE THIS STUFF IS COMING TO AN END! NO FROSTBITE ON THESE TOES, MISTER! Husband: (yes dear, sorry dear) I musta let my agent get a little wild. Wife: DON'T YOU DARE GIVE ME ANY OF THAT "MY AGENT" CRAP!
