    I doubt that can be done. As much as I wish we could get Rubio AND Bosh/Amare, I don't think it can happen. But then again, I'm not "The Wizard" so I couldn't function out the process of a deal like that happening anyway lol

    I mean that's probably cause of his contact and also he is a offensive liability. If u can't score in NY well u may not be much of an offensive guy. And knicks fans don't appreciate defense that doesn't show up in the stats(hayes) like we do.

    Don't bring this up, man, that hurts..... To lose landry like this, he is our warrior...... In my heart, he will always be a rocket and I will cheer for his every time he steps on the court.........

    Sports teams are now pure business entities. Teams and Players are a lot less emotionally attached to each other than before, so are the fans.

    Morey has a good reputation with solid moves, so every single move is celebrated here as Genius trick. But maybe it's just me, seeing players leaving or sold or exchanged, doesn't make me happy. At those moments, only good memories of those players emerge. I wasn't excited when Dream was gone, when SF3 was gone, neither am I now that TMac is gone. Maybe because I have loved his game since his Toronto days. Of course, so did Landry, who left very found memories here for his service.

    Hopefully the trades do both Team and Players good.

    Who was the first person in the site to best guess the details of this deal?

    They should be in Morey's legion of underlings. :grin:

    This is like the blockbuster movie that is hyped for months, and then exceeds the hype!!!

    It seems impossible to me that, in the face of the huge hype/expectations/hopes surrounding the possibility of trading Tmac, Morey not only exceeded, but blew away our expectations by a mile.

    This literally does not happen.

    Not sure what to think at this point. It's ok, but time may reveal that it is really good or just another insignificant move.

    I have a feeling Hill is gonna be good. I have the same feeling about him I had about Carl landry before he got good. I just feel that the Rockets organization are good in turning young post players into monsters.

    I don't know why you need any written statement on KMart's feelings. Clearly he's psyched as hell since he's going to get his first ring here.

    On the radio earlier someone said that this is like when people call in and make the most ridiculous trade proposals ever except Morey actually does them.


    Does anyone know if Martin will play Sat?
