    Well at least we dont have to worry about us taking the Howard Eisley contract for the rights to get the #7 pick.

    TMac is coming here, and this thread is going to 3000 posts.

    Just because McGrady wants Houston doesn't mean Orlando is going to do some dumbass deal for nothing. Most teams would rather let a guy walk than trade him for crapola.

    I think TMac will come to Houston because (among many reasons) Rockets are trying to convince Yao to stay after next year, instead of him going to LA, NY, Oakland. 2. The huge market of China is very appealing to TMac.

    BTW, I don't hate/dislike SF3 at all. The guy has heart and gives 100% on the court. He is a good guy, with average passing and shooting abilities. But TMac is TMac.

    DavidS, you da best! :D

    You'll have to excuse my antics. Anytime I hear of grossly overpaid GMs dealing with grossly overpaid players whose grossly excessively lifestyles are funded by grossly loyal fans who are grossly underpaid in real life bothers me.

    It's all so gross to me.

    :D

    .....this never gets old, seriously. I laugh every time I read these stupid "Yao is going to LA or NY" posts.

    Hmm, you see TMac is leaving Orlando. Is there a possibility that Yao might do the similar thing, especially when Stevie and his buddy Mobley are still controling the ball two years from now, smartie?

    Didn't Rock Newman handle Riddick Bowe? Wasn't he the one who had Bowe throw his belt in the garbage? Steve sure picked some great representation.

    What I find so funny about all the stuff in the media is how wrong so many of them seem to be. Even tonight, the New York Times reported that the Suns were the leading candidate and that we would know by the 7th pick if McGrady had been pursuaded by the Suns management to go to Phoenix. They even said the Suns offered Marion, Johnson and the #7, which Phoenix has bluntly denied from the get go.

    Just a hint to the news guys...maybe wait a tad longer the night before the draft to put the paper to bed. ;)

    This bbs looks pretty sad when you look at the two threads in that forum with the most views/replies.

    The biggest mistake I've seen national media(especially radio) and local media from NBA cities make over and over again is leaving out the key to this whole situation...TMac wants Houston and he holds the ultimate hammer. Several go on and on about how dumb the Magic are if they take the Rockets' offer over some of the others. It's really very simple if they just did some homework before they open their mouths or before they start typing. If we can do some research why can't they?
