"My Sources tell me..." 

Post#1 » by Mr. E » Wed Jun 27, 2012 9:44 pm

"My sources tell me that the Rockets are not interested in Dwight Howard..."

"My sources tell me that the Rockets are definitely interested in Dwight Howard..."

"My sources tell me that the Rockets are stockpiling these picks to send with Kyle Lowry for Pau Gasol..."

"My sources tell me that the Rockets are looking to acquire Josh Smith and then trade him to the Texans who will then trade him to Detroit for Calvin Johnson..."



Every time I read a Rockets rumor from some writer/hack/blogger I think the same thing:

The "Source" they are talking to is Daryl Morey floating as much s**t out there as possible to muddy up the picture for everyone! :lol:

Teams do that to mess with the writers. Up to the writer to put it out there

Trade: Martin + 16 + Morris for Monta

Trade: 12+ 18 + Lowry + Paraons for Josh Smith and Marvin Williams

Both Monta and Smith are friends of Dwight, they could convince him to come

Gortat was overpaid then, and he's overpaid now. Maybe if inflation was out of control, you could justify Gortat's contract. Until then, it's just obscene.

?

Gortat has one of the best contracts in the NBA.

Are you guys serious about Dwight Howard? Because I get the feeling that you guys might trade for him, and then he'll just leave for Brooklyn or some stupid thing like that.

If you guys trade for Dwight, he'd be stupid to leave, but you guys have made so many nice moves recently and I'd hate to see that go to waste on an idiot who will leave after one year.
