    This is a good point. I'll share the pessimism and will be shocked if it happens.

    Cap space & flexibility will be the reason Dwight & Harden demand a trade outta Houston

    I've really sold myself on wanting Ray Allen on the Rockets so he will most assuredly sign with Cleveland.

    With that being said, why didn't any of the "insiders" know about them?

    Rockets organization doesn't leak like reading a message board would have you believe.

    So why does everyone believe the hype when an "insider" says something?

    Because we (including myself even though I'm a pretty hardcore skeptic of every insider) are losers on a messageboard (said with all affection!) who hang on every bit of news we can get. People want to believe.

    Because folks are thirsty for information, they'll believe anything (well, so long as it's positive. If it's negative, said "Insider" is fake and a troll). :grin:

    Not everyone does. I certainly don't. If there are leaks, they are deliberate and through the usual sources, not archaic riddles or vague hints posted anonymously on a fan board.

    I really think that if we signed Allen, Daniels will be offended.

    I don't see why any young shooter would be offended at having a chance to learn from Ray Allen.

    What does he bring that Troy Daniels can't at this point?

    I'd love to have him here, he's basically the essence of what we do but man I don't know. Like everyone else said I think it's Cleveland or retire.

    Daniels is offended, I'm offended as well..... Yesterday I made 3 threes in a roll and I really started feeling like I could have been the third star on The Rockets........ No calls from anyone giving me a chance..... If they keep ignoring me I'm taking my talents to where people actually believe I can play basketball at a professional level....
