    IF Lebron goes to CLE, move on
    - Do not match after 3 days (still tie up Mavs cap space during that time )
    - Trade Lin for cap space (probably through in our own 2015 pick to do this)
    - Sign Chris Bosh to max (He is the absolute perfect fit for Howard and this team and even if his skills aren't worth the max, his fit with team makes it worth it)
    - Sign Shawn Marion using however much of the mid-level exception we have to on him (he's only got a couple years left in him, but he continues to defend well and is a great team player and another guy who fills a need on this team - defense)

    Ideally we get Bosh through S&T, which is realistic if Lebron leaves as MIA will most likely lean toward a rebuild and wants picks/prospects. And hopefully we can still retain Daniels. Lineup:

    Beverly/Johnson
    Harden/Daniels
    Marion/Covington
    Bosh/Jones
    Howard/Bosh/Vet using bi-annual or vet min.

    Jones and Daniels are solid coming off the bench, and hopefully Johnson can put in a good rookie campaign; but, I believe Morey will improve the bench the way he always seems to do. That lineup gives us 3 all-stars, and 4 guys who can AT LEAST play solid defense, masking Harden's struggles on that end. I think that's a legit contender next 3-4 years and is the best outcome now.

    No it is accurate and this is why I don't think he is a Rocket if Bosh is. Morey and Padsons agent negotiated a lot, Morey could have reached an under the table deal with Parsons for exactly what Dallas offered AND given Bosh the max... But it didn't happen, that tells me that there is a good chance Parsons isn't matched.

    Tonite at 11pm, Houston time. He's signed it. The clock starts as soon as Rockets receive it. Now they play a little hide and seek.

    What is the over/under for sleep for Morey over the next 72 hours and 8 minutes? I say 3 hours sleep... Where Keith Jones will find Morey snoring, with his face stuck in a Whataburger wrapped and a 12 pack of empty AMP around him.

    When are we going to accept that a player, a player's agent, or a player's "camp" will never admit to a decision until it's officially announced? I bet you could ask Bosh's agent as they're on their way to Houston to sign and he would still deny. PR is a very real and important component to these guys.

    Morey will match Parsons contract. No way we let him go. He has been our glue guy.

    Exactly. Unless Parsons just wants to escape Houston (which I doubt), Morey has already had every opportunity to agree to this deal. He didn't, which explains the calls to Deng, Ariza, and Pierce.
