Last year, if it was a playoff run, he would've stayed on the floor more. They sucked. He sat. End of story. If a guy misses 5 or 6 games...
Yeah, they did tank. It was shameful, but successful. :D
Several sources stated that Francis' byc status was NOT an issue and that the deal could go through before the 1st.
That would surprise me. I think it is important to remember that with all this talk and speculation, if nothing happens (or if something drastic...
He said something to the effect that he wanted to be here but he knew that this was a business and anything could happen.
By the way, I think it is safe to say that, whatever happens with Orlando, Steve is NEVER coming back to Houston in a Rockets uniform.
Did you guys hear the actual quote? I caught the replay on ESPN News last night. Something like: "I asked him [Van Gundy] about all the trade...
That's because Van Gundy didn't have a clause in his deal that voided his contract when he joined another team. I guarantee when they re-worked...

Wisebrod reminds me of this quote Al Pacino's character in The Insider: The Wall Street Journal, here, not exactly a bastion of anti-capitalist...
I think I'll sleep for a week and then weep for the next two and a half months waiting for the start of training camp.
I get the sense that the Sentinnel tends to spin things the way Wisebrod wants them spun whereas other outlets tend to go more with other sources....
This was posted in the big mutha thread also. Just fyi. :D
Where did you come up with Nachbar? He isn't in the deal.
You know, I've wondered the same thing. Only a very small percentage of second rounders ever play significant time in the NBA. I think the...
The Rockets stated after he was drafted that they would send him to Europe for at least 2 years to develop.
