    Annoyed is more likely. Christ. Teenage girls running around in a circle hysterically screaming. A sad sight.

    I wouldn't give up Parsons unless it was for Love.

    Dude....you need to calm down because you're getting worked up on this way too much. Cyberx and Docrocket just put out what they hear. They don't force us to believe every single thing, they put it out there for us to discuss and garner some analysis about the situation. Just calm down and enjoy the trade season because every year it's a fun time....

    Remember when Rondo almost single-handedly beat the Heat in 2012?

    Stars win in the NBA, and Rondo is a star.

    I dont think Parsons get traded in any deal. Some people have made it out that the Rockets organization owes Parsons something, which in fact we dont, and there is no loyalty when it comes to "business" in this day and time.

    2ndly, i just believe Morey and the Rockets think of Parsons as one of the "untouchables" including Harden and Howard. He has become the face of the Rockets, and he is the glue that keeps us gunning and winning. He stays in almost any senerio not involving Love, and even then i do not see the Rockets moving him. Gut feeling.

    For the longest Morey has situated the Rockets to become major players in the 2015 FA class, and i do not see any reason that he will not mess that up, unless again we are getting Love back in a deal. But why even do that when you can just sign him outright and keep your core intact.

    I say the Rockets do trade Asik, and maybe even Dmo, Lin and our draft picks to added win now talent while still being players in 2015, or atleast for ppl they know will be easy to flip come 2015 or the draft next year.

    Morey's trademark move--just prepare to be surprised, pissed off, and then awed in that order.

    The 20th can't come soon enough.

    Asik + Lin should do it. If not, add DMo or TJones but get Bass and/or Sullinger.

    In bold; no I don't.

    In italics, kind of contradicting there?

    Stars=Win
    Rondo=Win

    But....

    Rondo= Lost in 2012

    Yeah I always had bev as maybe a sell high if we get upgrade at PG, he started on 3rd in west team and on cheap contract that's good value. I see bev+asik+dmo/jones+picks =rondo+bass that's a solid haul for both teams. Sure morey would like humpries expiring but it's $12mill, not sure if he can wing that salary match without giving up Lin.

    Thanks for the info Cyber.

    Rondo would be awesome on this team. Wouldn't give up Parsons, but other than our two stars I'd give up pretty much anyone else. An absolutely HUGE upgrade at the PG position.

    It's almost as important for us to bolster our bench though. We need an upgrade over Garcia/Casspi ASAP.

    I feel the reason we dont run enough pnrolls is due to the fact that we dont have the capable passers needed to run it smoothly. Lin is more of a pg to pick and pop rather than dish. Maybe Rondo to the Rox might change the game plan, maybe not. :p I think it ultimately comes down to McHale.
