    Nice summary, thanks. I am surprised Ariza is one of the most wanted Rox by other GMs.

    I guess perhaps Hayward could have been the 1 person not on the Rox board. Who knows.

    Thanks.

    I actually think that Mad Max was smarter than JT. JT always seems lost, both in game and in videos of practice. He does have a lot of potential to be a lock down defender as show by his D on Kobe.

    AB and Bud would be the most asked about because they are talented, young players on dirt cheap contracts. Scola and Lowry would not be asked about as much because they are RFAs.

    Rileydog earns a boatload of rep.

    "The rockets had him as the 12th or 13th guy on their board last year. He was top 6-7 based on basketball skills/talent"

    Jordan Hill. Top 6 or 7...

    What say you Bima Thug?

    Max did have a better bball IQ. But I believe Adelman is a great teacher so I hopefully Taylor is a good student.

    Taylor shows that fearlessness and toughness and not afraid to hit big shoots and know he belongs on the court.

    So PP is a better player than Hill in Morey's mind? PP is his No.6 in the list.

    I love how absolutely out of the loop you prove the Chronicle sportswriters to be. Thank you! It makes me want to be a season ticket holder, just to be able to chat up Morey.

    According to the opinions here, AB should have been out of NBA already.

    The opinions here should not be relied but to be trashed.

    Ariza is one of the players most requested in trades........................


    hehehehehehe

    way to sneak that one in, DM.


    No mention of our expirings, but mentions Ariza as a trade asset teams are asking about.

    Okie Dokie.

    I'm pretty sure I created a poll early in AB's career and voted that he'd be out of the league after his rookie contract. Whhoooops. I'm glad I was horribly wrong.
