    I'm starting to lose hope. After being so invested in this my feelings are slowly moving towards apathy.

    So if the Rockets drafted Harlkless would we have the better offer?

    Every team has assets, Dwight Howard is a major asset.

    Oh, and also..who is to say we cant bring in Bynum next offseason. I highly doubt he wants to sign long term in Philly. Especially with Iggy gone, who else do they have?

    It doesn't matter who goes to LA because Kobe is a chucker and won't get anyone involved anyways :grin:

    Thank God it's over. (I hope)

    Let's build this thing a little more naturally, starting with our good young players.

    Nash, Kobe, Dwight, and Pau is going to be something to watch and that seems like a solid mix of talents, not just a bunch of stars strung together.

    Well, good if it happens. Rather have virgin Rockets than slutty stars.

    This is classic....

    Offseason moves now apparently include moves that didn't happen.

    Yeah, I like the fact that we can have five 6-9 players in our starting lineup and still we get some backups with the same height.

    they could end all this speculation by just showing the lottery balls being selected live on television; it would greatly add substance add to their lame filler filled show.

    The nba is a corporation. Corporations do shady ***** everyday.

    just sayin.

    That wouldn't be the "shocking" point.

    Why in the world would Orlando pick Cody Zeller over the other top 2 touted prospects in college this year?

    If the Bobcats would have won it or the Nets for that matter there would have been other "conspiracy theories" as well.

    Bobcats = Jordan
    Nets = Brooklyn/pursuit of Dwight.

    Morey should cave and offer up the two second round picks from NY.

    He is just being greedy at this point.
