Can Bima or someone else confirm all of these conditions? I was under the impression we could keep T. Jones...
Sorry if this has already been done, but can somebody please post the logistics of how we could clear the space to sign Bosh in time to match Parsons? It looks to me as though the former will take longer than the latter allows.

Really hope they can figure out a way to keep Beverly, T. Jones and Daniels through this process if Bosh commits. Maybe Canaan too. I think he has potential. Everybody else, good luck to you. Beverly/Johnson Harden/Daniels Parsons/? Bosh/T. Jones Howard/?
– Complete the trade of Omer Asik to New Orleans. – Find a trade partner for Jeremy Lin. – Waive their non-guaranteed players with the exception of Pat Beverley. – And move at at least two contracts – likely Donatas Motiejunas and Terrence Jones. – And then decide on matching Chandler Parsons’ offer sheet from Dallas. That move doesn’t affect the cap (because the team is re-signing one of its own free agents) but impacts depth and the luxury tax.
Here you go. I did the final version last night. I want this to happen so we can all bombard it to cuban on twitter.
Bima already posted something saying as much, if Bosh gets his 20 mil, we lose everyone but Harden, Howard, Bev, and Parsons.
I agree. The starting lineup would be the best in the NBA, but each rotation caliber player the Rockets can keep is HUGE. Morey may find a gem or two, but not 3-4 like would be needed.

If Morey gets done that enormous checklist of items to bring in Bosh and retain Parsons, he's unfireable for the rest of his life.
