    Wait they started at Arkansas, and now they're going to Atlanta?

    I think the secret destination is Miami, where Chris Bosh is rumored to be in??!!?! :confused:

    They are suppose to "deliver" morey to the FA meeting, so i'd guess they'd take it one at a time?

    Morey flies from one destination to the next imo, and this saves his cab fare to and from the airport?

    well yeah Morey is flying, my guess is they meet him at whatvr city the meeting is, but what i was asking was, why send the trucks to diff cities at the same time when morey can only be at one city at a time? the other trucks would have nothing to do, but wait, and word would get out of their location before morey got there to have the meeting.

    I guess it's possible for morey to fly to 3 diff cities within a day or two, but i doubt it's realistic.

    ha nice try i am pretty sure all the rowdies are under oath or some sort of NDA to not tell anyone. since this is a TEAM sanctioned event no one can legally say anything until july 1st

    I'm under the impression that he's going from the #1 FA choice to the next and all 3 trucks will follow that route in that order as he goes along....are others saying the three trucks end up at different places and the hype is not knowing which one of those locations morey will end up in?

    I guess it's possible, but being NBA sanctioned, i think a rockets employee has to be with them during the trip and so far the only employees i've read about are friedman and the head of the rowdies, that's 2 employees for 3 trucks. I don't see them allowing one truck to go off by itself with fans only, or is there a third employee?

    Just being you :grin:

    Well the title says three....and the vid shows at least two....so yeah i'd say three... and it appears there's 10 rowdies and two employees for a total of 12 people.



    latest twitter from Friedman:

    "Enemy of Fun in full effect. Only allowed Rowdies 1 proper meal and making them drive all night under cover of darkness. Stealth activated. "

    what's the point of that when there's 24 hrs left?

    If they really are going to Cleveland I might decide to make the last four hour trek behind them... just so I can see LeBron's house. I heard it was stellar.

    Morey thought it would be best to have as many HIMs as possible for this free agent madhouse, so after the trade at the deadline last year he built a cloning device, cloned himself twice, and destroyed the machine unintentionally when all the Daryl's started crunching numbers in the same room as the machine.

    I think the trucks are going to 3 different destinations.

    Bosh
    Johnson
    James

    I wish they would visit Amar'e instead of Johnson. We had a deal at the deadline to get Amar'e so we know we have what it takes to get him. Amar'e would be a really, really good plan B.

    The caravan is not splitting up. However, the caravan is decoy. Meanwhile there is a separate caravan of 3 black Toyota Tundras heading toward the real target, the black Tundras will be painted red at a paint shop swore to secrecy when they arrive the target city. :)

    LA? I don't see any FAs on either team we could be targeting. Maybe someone's off season home from another team. Not sure who lives out there in the off season. Also it might be part of a head fake and then make a turn when they get close to LA because if they are heading west, they went to Lousianna first to throw people off the track. Not anyone on the Kings or GSW. They could head back to Phoenix (Amare) or head up to SLC (Boozer).

    Amasre is with his agent in LA. Boozer's off-season home is in Miami.
