    Finally, someone with some knowledge on how this team being currently constructed will not make it as far as they think.

    i think we're closer to the finals than you think. Chemistry is a huge part of the game and I think we just need to add small pieces to bolster our bench rather than shake up the roster too much. Of course if the right opportunity presents itself we should jump on it, but we shouldn't sacrifice chemistry for a player who may or may not fit in the lineup. That being said... Rondo maybe worth the risk

    "Sam Hinkie is KILLING IT today! He's netted 4 2nd rounders, couple of decent young guys & STILL sits $10.45M below the cap. Two hours left."

    You don't think we can win the West, gimp? I think the hump we need to get over is the one that lets us shake hand with Mr. O'Brien.

    What about Lin, Asik, Jone plus a first round?

    @RealSkipBayless: If it's true Rockets won't give up ChandlerParsons as lynchpin of a trade for Rondo, Rockets making big mistake. Rondo=legitcontender.

    Rondo would definitely make this team better than it is with parsons. Anyone who doesn't think that isn't thinking championship. However we'd have to give up our back up C too and perhaps someone else? That could be trouble on top of some of our players pouting.
    But make no mistake. Rondo is way more valuable than a chandler parsons

    No word guys... I would expect if Morey wanted to do this... He will call Ainge in the last hour and put CP out there for Rondo.

    Will he? I honestly don't know. If I am a Rockets fan, I hope he does.

    I'm thinking of making a twitter handle called @FakeSkipBayless and actually report what I think that makes more sense than the actual Skip Bayless

    I hope Hinkie has Morey's back and is going to use some of those picks he's acquired to help us. Morey basically made Hinkie. Without Morey there is no Hinkie.

    He will call at 1:45 and say. Ok instead of giving you Parsons, why don't you give me 2 second round picks?

    That deal would have been most likely done already if the Celtics wanted it. Why would they want it? it does not help them.

    I think Asik will be gone to Philly for sure....they way below the league minimum. Asik will fix that.


    Asik, filler for Evan Turner or Thad Young and few of those 2nd round picks
