    This is why I always hated the "pretty girl"...she's pretty, she knows it, and she is going to make you work for it...James was the prettiest girl available to us this offseason and he knew it...

    Alright, well, can't wait for the first Minnesota @ Houston game this season. I hope I'm around, that's going to be a fun one.

    Meet the Carlos Beltran of the NBA (NOT in terms of ability, but in the pack of lies that have followed him for months). Liar.

    Well according radio in minnesota everyone offered james the same 4 year deal, but minnesota offered a trade kicker and opt out after 3rd year.

    Ariza, Banks, and Cato please...

    Trade Howard for nothing to clear up the roster spot.

    james said we didn't give him the 5th year and said we didn't give him a trade kicker if they were to trade him AGAIN. he said the only reason he would have come back here is for the fans.

    i think that's pretty final in him not coming. the rockets' are unbelievably stupid or have a foolproof back-up plan if they are passing him up because of that.

    James said he wanted a 5th year and/or trade kicker. He sounded pretty pissed and said the only reason he considered coming back was because of the fans.
