I, for one, like reading your insider posts cyberx, even if I'm cautiously skeptical about your information.
He wouldn't be doing his job if he didnt TRY. This his JOB. Perfect example, Steve Nash. The Lakers really never thought they'd have a chance. Jim told Mitch to make the call, and there really wasn't much hope. But now look how that worked out.
I can only speak for those I have heard of. Douglas was given up because they thought he met his absolute highest potential, so they went with Beverly. They love the fact that Beverly has the Euro style of play and they wanted to incorporate that on the team. They did like Douglas's defense. Asik has exceeded ALL expectations. Regarding White, I tried to get some info today, but there really isnt much info to get. This is so HUSH HUSH, I believe only Daryl knows specifically. (I am not about to go pound him with questions on the matter) Does anyone follow Larry Coon? I suggest someone tweeting him about clarification on Parson's contract. I now am very interested as well.
I believe Lin, it would have to be a pretty nice incoming piece to get him out. Your buddy Morey loves Rondo.
I don't really get the cyberx bashing. Clutch usually clamps down on bad sources and I don't recall him ever doing so here. And really, Lin over Parsons as a long term piece?
Thanks for the information. I know everything is fluid but it's neat to have someone actually giving us clear information. If you ever stop posting on the main forum or if you decide to do emails please let me know. What I'd like to know is why in the world was Marcus Morris given up for a second rounder so quickly. Was he complaining or did Morey just want to hit reset and hope for another CP25 in the 2nd Round.
I think Parsons is right there too, just wanted to go into my little tidbit. It really depends on how many high paid players you could really get. If you get a max player or two on top of Harden, getting Parsons that 7-8 million he deserves will be tough. (that's a personal opinion on what he would get, nothing that has been said to me) Parsons could always go to a team like Orlando or whatever and get a big pay day and be the man.
Could you email me some more interesting pieces of info not only from Rockets, but from around the league? Would be greatly appreciated.
If we get two max players on top of Harden, I would care less about Parsons I disagree, I think Lin has about equal trade value to Lin.
Do people around the league know that Bynums knees are totally shot? Did Philly just stick their head in the sand about his knees when they traded for him?
Have they always thought Dwight was a near 0% chance of happening or has his recent success since the All Star Break change that?
Hey Cyberx, Nice info... But right now it doesn't matter if we have milsap or smith, neither will work in this current offense. Both or guys that play around the basket and so far that's not happening with any PF outside of PPat. Every PF that we have are guys that play around the hoop and this offense is making them play on the perimeter. So unless they are going to change the coach or the offense, neither player will work. By the way keep up the good work. Info like this is what has made this site so great... So let the haters hate... T_Man
