This is the worst thing that could ever happen us! We actualu are trading Dwight one of hos preferred destination and we get Aaron freaking Afflalo and a bunch of late round picks? I am so upset right now! I'm shocked Houston and/or Cleveland weren't involved especiallythe Rockets. The toronto lottery pick alone is more valuable than all these garbage picks we're getting! I'd take Kevin Martin and his valuable expiring contract and Jeremy Lamb over Aaron Afflalo and Harkless in a heartbeat as well! Oh and to top it off, we still have Hedo and Qrich? Damnitt Hennigan. Pathetic. Sixers got Bynum for Igoudala? Wtf Denver got Iggy for Afflalo? No brainer. Lakers replaced Bynum with Dwight. SMH yep we're being labelled as LA's ***** now. There is no silver lining to this deal. Fact of the matter is, we got so-so players and several late round picks to send the best center in the league to the freaking Lakers. The best player in the deal came from our team and we received the crappiest package in return.

Honestly could care less whether he ends up in Hou or La as long as we get the hest possible deal. I don't like it from a nba fan standpoint seeing all the superstars go to big market cities. LA,NY,MIA,CHI.. Almost all of the superstars are in those cities already except for a few like Durant in Okc. This isn't a 30-team league anymore.

Deadline for Asik offer sheet ia tuesday. Could be earlier than that since Bulls aren't likely to match with the acquisiton of Nazr Mohammed. Lets get this deal done after tuesday, Henny!

As much as i would love to have any combinations of Lamb,Parsons, and Motiejunas if have a feeling we'll only get 1 of those 3 plus KMart,Patterson,Jones/Morris, and both those 1st round picks from tor and dal then they also take a couple of bad contracts probably Davis and Duhon. I'd be okay with that. I would prefer getting 2 of those three players (lamb,parsons,motiejunas) but i'm trying to be more realistic since they're absorbing bad contracts as well. And lets not forget that this is also a huge gamble for them. I just want to get a deal done soon. A fair one. Then we could move on and get a clearer picture of the start of our future.

Just saw an article saying that Leuer was waived by Houston, dated wednesday 8pm. Should clear waivers tonight at 8 or even maybe a few hours before that considering the article could been a couple of hours late. Anyway, Asik would be eligible to sign that offer sheet any time tonight. Pretty sure this is what both Henny and Morey are waiting for.

They Rockets had to wait 48 hours after waving a couple of those players they got fr the Bucks. Which would end this afternoon and they'll be eligible to sign Asik. Then there'd be another 3 days after that. Depends on the Bulls if they would use 3 full days to decide which i doubt.

Well, i just like you guys, i can't wait for all these offer sheet waiting game is over so we can move on with the Hou trade. Since, its a little uneventful right now, let me ask you all this.. Do you think NY will match Lin's offer sheet?

A houston fan tweeted this.. "@BimaThug: The more ridiculous the Knicks' behavior over offer sheet, the more I'm convinced this is about being able to work Felton S&T under cap."

What are the Knicks doing? Either you match or not. There's gotta be more to this than what meets the eye..

Done talking to you since youre clearly just trolling now. I expected better minds from Houston fans but apparently not.

Save this trade and get back at me after the deal has been made official.. My prediction: KMart,Lamb,Jones,Patterson or Morris, and 2 1st rd picks for Dwight,JRich,Davis or Duhon Now, if and when NY and CHI do not match offer sheets of lin and asik and Houston wont be able to absorb all those contracts (which i doubt), then it would mean that you GM would have to give more prospects. But in my prediction, we are only getting 2 young players in exchange for 2 contracts. Again im expecting you on disagreeing given your poor comprehension on how trades work, come back here after the deal has been consumated and lets see who is right.

He/She is clearly a rocket fan who doesn't understand the term "negotiation". To rockets fans lurking: Sure Houston is trading for a possible rental in Dwight and that's exactly why they're gambling. How the heck would it be called "gambling" and going "all in" when you think you could lowball a team and acquire the besy center in the league? If your GM is offering what you believe or want him to offer then we could easily find a better deal elsewhere. The reason why you and your team are currently the frontrunners for a dwight trade right now, that's because your gm is offering way more than what other could offer. So gtfo with your pipedream offers and be realistic for once. Heck we could even deman Parsons in the package with Lamb,Jones,Kmart etc.. But unlike you, we keep it real and come up with a deal that both sides can actually agree on. But like i said, we could debate all day what the trade detials would be, its a waste of time. I'd rather wait til the end of this coming week and tell you what.. After they have announced the trade and release the details, come back here and i will save your post for comparison. Until then, im done with your ridiculous unrealistic one sided pipedream trade scenario!

I beg to disagree. Lets just wait for the trade to happen.

Those 2 rooks will be special someday! Mark my words.

Agreed. I'd rather have our post-dwight lineup and rebuild from scratch while having nice prospects and cap flexibility + lottery picks than a solid lineup like that.. Solid but isn't a contender.

No matter how rich you are, that's still a ton of money to gamble on one player. Not to mention you already have 3 point guards on the team in Kidd,Felton,Prigioni and possibly even Shumpert.

That's exactly the deal that would most likely happen. Either BBD or Duhon and you could add Patterson or Morris. Dwight/Jrich/BBD or Duhon for Lamb/Jones/Kmart/Patterson or Morris + the two future 1sts.

Well, while we wait for Jeremy Lamb and the gang.. Fwiw, i don't think NY will match that offer sheet. It's just such a poison pill given their existing payroll. To be honest, its good to see that a city like Houston will have a chance on getting popular players and be recognized internationally. I'm tired of the nba and the national media only favoring teams from NY LA MIA BOS and CHI.

I'd probably choose J-Lamb since is see him with a better upside than Parsons. He could be a star someday. While Parsons is solid on both sides of the court.. Very good but i don't see him being great. Lamb is a kind of player who can be great.

@SamAmicoFSO: High-ranking officials from several teams involved in Dwight Howard chase say all recent talks now dead. "Cavs walked away again," says one. LOL those cavs. If there's one nba exec i hate as much as Otis, it's Cavs Owner Dan Gilbert. Now he's being haunted with Kyrie breaking his hand at practice and could be out 2 months.

Give me both Lamb and Jones! I see something really special in the future with those two especially Jeremy Lamb. K-Mart's expiring, and those two lottery picks would just be gravy! Even the Rockets fans know they have something special in Lamb. Get it done Henny!

Hope this would further improve what Houston is offering us!

From a Cavs writer.. @JasonLloydABJ: Team that remains a best fit, for what Orlando wants, is Houston. They have the right collection of picks and ... http://t.co/pdtasikN

LOL although i would demand Parsons to be included in that deal, it already looks way better than what the cavs could offer us. Please Hennigan! Not the Cavs! No Kyrie no deal!

Well i haven't read his other posts ir tweets. But i agree with that statement. More bad contracts means lesser assets. That's the standard to any negotiation involving a team dumping contracts vs a team giving out assets. The fact that we won't agree to a trade that Houston would take less contracts and we get only a few assets is also the same as Houston not agreeing absorbing all the poison contracts while having to give us all the assets we choose.
