I hope this is the right place to ask, guys, is this for real or some kind of The Onion? http://www.khou.com/news/local/White-gu ... 22981.html

Is anyone here on the wagon? I have been drinking way to much lately (anyone who has been posting here for an extended amount of time can attest to this) an it is putting a strain on my relationship which is far and away the most amazing relationship I could ever imagine. She is perfect in so many ways and I know I am beyond lucky that she even talks to me. I love her so much. I just want to know how much it sucks/where I should go/who I should talk to? All these things

May not give it up for good but need to cut back big time because I can't lose her...any feed back is appreciated

I originally wanted to do a "STRAWMAN" drinking game, but realized that was dumb...

But my trade was Bargnani + Hardaway JR for Asik + Lin. Bargnani playing pretty good right now, but Lin's stats are crazy good atm.

Trade Asik drinking game can work, but if you're talking about announcers, then we have to watch away announcers or National TV games. I don't think HOU media will talk about Asik trades.

Sounds like you've found a keeper. Don't mess it up.

Sorry I don't have advice on the wagon, Alcohol makes me angry so I tend to stay away from it.

What the hell?

Morris Brothers dominating the NBA????

The Suns are confusing me. What is who? Who is when? How is why? When is what?

Apparently, if we'd kept Jordan Hill, we'd be in tip-top shape right now.

if we keep Hill then we wont have enough cap space and filler to get Howard/Harden
problem with Morey is he's always using player as trade asset
i bet he will trade Parsons if he can get his 3rd superstar

Aaaaaaaaaaand Lamb's busy not sucking, too.

Now if you asked me if I'd rather have Hill and Lamb or Harden and Howard, I don't think it's even a question.
Kinda like that whole Gasol/Gasol trade a few years ago.

Let's just see if they keep it up, but weird all the same.

i know it suck
but kind of make me feel better when i was against the Harden trade
Steven Adams can be decent player too

if we never make the trade we are looking at

C - Asik, Adams, Smith
PF - Robinson (well we traded him just to clear space cap for Howard and he will not sign here if we don't have Harden), Motiejunas, Jones
SF - Parsons, Casspi (he wanted to come here even before the Harden trade, don't think anyone is offering him more money anyway)
SG - Lamb, Martin??? (not sure we will re-sign him or not, and not sure who we can spend the money on)
PG - Lin, Beverley
