    Shabazz would be great, I wish the Rockets were willing to take on salary.

    It's not about being willing. They can't.

    Looks like HOU may have failed to move Robinson and is looking to get rid of Lin instead.

    Doubt it. If they are going to move Robinson for a pick I'm sure it's dependent on the player they want being there. Otherwise they probably want to either get 2nds or wait until after July 1st.

    Just as likely that Morey doesn't want to lose Robinson... It is all spin control all the way around.

    I'm cool with him becoming an All Star, the fact is the Rockets don't want to develop him, he has shown talent, I hope he reaches it else where. The last thing I want is for a former Rockets player, who never did anything wrong to warrant us cutting ties, not succeed (so long as he isn't in the division).

    Although I do consider Shane Battier dead to me for his back to back performances in the finals now eclipsing his tenure as a Rocket.

    Kudos to you if you're right! I hope so!

    If not, you will be the laughing stock on CF.

    You really hung yourself out there Carl!

    Did you really think the rockets were going to trade him for a top 8 pick? The cavs are always a tease, dumbass franchise that lucked into consenus #1 picks.

    Yeah, I'm glad they 'spotted' Scola and gave him to us for nothing. They 'spotted' and waived Danny Green. Gary Neal was never young when he entered the NBA. Where's all this young talent they've 'spotted' in the last 10 years?

    Not sure why people can't accept that Morey made a mistake with Robinson. It happens. Morey wanted him the year he was drafted - he was obviously wrong about his potential. I have to think if you accepted that reality, you wouldn't care about CH letting you know about it. It's not like he's making stuff up like a LOF.

    They're getting rid of him for salary reasons. Stop the madness.

    So one guy in a decade that may or may not ever become an all-star makes them one of the best at finding young talent?

    All the teams needing a PG have addressed it through the draft. Lin is impossible to move now.


    It's either Robinson or :(, Asik.
