    When you can't kick the can, recycle it.

    This season has been a complete dumpster fire. Now we have to tank to do anything in this upcoming draft.

    You know it will happen! Rockets won't see the implications of the voided trade for a couple years; let's hope Detroit gets a bad pick.

    in more ways than one...this really hurts the Rockets...A TON.

    The Rockets are now forced with the real possibility that DMo and TJones leave without getting NOTHING back. Whether they will have an impact on a team that makes a title run is really yet to be seen...

    But losing out on a surefire lottery pick to now getting two disgruntled players in return is insulting and just pathetic. Thanks Stan Van Gundy...:mad:

    Oh stop it!

    Half of you said Morey was about to draft another bust!

    Right. I liked the pick if it wasn't going to be used to draft a player

    I'll miss seeing this guy being injured for 1 year, play down at RGV for another year, play a handful of games for the Rockets and then be shipped off to some other team.

    That doesn't sound like DMo. I see this fueling DMo.

    Ill be honest...I was mad at the prospect of losing DMo before TJones...The very fact that TJones is still on this team still makes me mad. All of that being said, I think many of us cooled off and took off the homer glasses and realized that we really might be getting a mid-late lottery pick...myself included. :)
