    Anyone watching ESPNEWS NOW can confirm this: TMAC to Houston as early as today?

    Tmac reportedly will be traded as early as today...

    To Houston for Mobley, Francis, and Kato...


    ESPNEWS reporting... They'll have one of their NBA beat writers on shortly... to comment on it.

    Don't bother... It'll just be Chad Ford.

    I love Yao + Tmac but am afraid that trading away SF3+Cat+Cato will break Yao's fragile heart.

    The hold up may be the Rockets negotiating on his new contract

    I won't believe it until the BBS crashes - it's the only sure way to know that something's gone down.

    I refuse to believe until I see the "breaking news" in the corner of the ESPN front page.

    That said... holycrapholycrapholycrap!

    Gooden would be fantastic, but I am not holding my expectation that high. Howard seems more realistic.

    It's Cato with a "C". What's wrong with you?

    That's like spelling Jordan as "Gordan"

    Kobe and Duncan in San Antonio

    Shaq, Finley, Nash, Jamison, Walker in Dallas (Cuban's the new Steinbrenner)

    McGrady and Yao in Houston

    The Eastern Conference wouldn't win a game in the state of Texas.

    I don't know, the new server seems pretty capable..

    I couldn't connect for a while last night around 1am, and I was sure it had happened. I considered waiting until I could connect to verify, but then I came to my senses (and decided it must be some unrelated problem, why would it be verified at 1am on Sunday night?) and went to bed. I know- it's sad.

    Haven't been getting much (any) work done today either.
