    It's not only Bobby Marks. Several national writers have mentioned that he has guarantee date for today. And they will need to waive him by tonight and so the physical will have to be waived by both sides.

    I'm not worried at all. There's a lot of details to finish and they must be arranged all today.

    The best part IMO is that Morey listened to Harden, he wanted help at PG and based Morey delivered.

    This is HUGE for when Hardens contract is up

    they need to find every player to sign some papers and then to get each team to waive the right to physical and get also Lawson out of rehab to fly to houston. And have the papers all prepared by today to waive prigioni. It's too much work.
    And probably includes many other things we have not the slightest idea about. Don't worry.

    The Rockets are already moving on to Terry and Chuck trade talks. If there was any real issue they wouldn't.

    Well I don't drink and drive so should Morey sign me? I did not know there was a direct correlation between drinking and driving and championships...

    Your logic is absurd.

    Love the optimism, but if the Deandre Jordan fiasco taught us anything its that it ain't over till the ink is put to paper.

    I'm sure Morey and Ty's Agent met and already schedule the meeting. He probably called the our players to inform them of the trade and prepare them for the next 24 hrs.

    Well, I guess the worry comes from the Denver side.....not from Lawson's camp. If Denver wants to pull out of the trade because they think they can get better offers, well then I guess there's nothing we can do. However, that won't happen. Teams have a lot more to lose when it comes to reputation and keep their word than players do. Denver can't lose face to the other 29 teams, as well as fans of the NBA.

    It's delayed because they are determining the suspension and that affects this trade.

    No. DJ was during the moratorium when nothing was "official". Now its different.
    Esp since the physicals will likely have to be waived, so a player failling their physical can't make the trade invalid.

    It;s not a phonecall. The players have to sign papers, they have to prepare the waiving of Prigs (which is directly correlated to the deal since it must be done ASAP).
    Seriously don't be so paranoid. There is a lot of work going on right now. A trade is not only some phonecalls to the league office.

    I'm not convinced this trade is finalized until b_allholic says so.
