Not sure.  I asummed it was the same between he and Schmitz (sp?), as they were both from DX.  But it was Schmitz on for the segment.

I posted above this one. It's his. That's usually how it goes, guy knows his poo. So, it's Ball. Is, what it is.

MJ just can't stand the thought of being ass. I would trade for him, but he better not include any semblance of some young-solid players. Houston looks to be rebuilding.

I hate this team. 

If this was 5 years ago, that is incredibly exciting.  Now?  It SUCKS.  I could see how it could go right, but I can see a lot more ways it could go wrong, and I see the negative side as being much more likely.  I just don't understand waiting under the albatross that is Batum's contract, getting to the end of it, being less than a year away from it coming off the books, and you trade for a 33 year old who is extremely inefficient, a bad shooter, and with 3 more years left on a ridiculous contract.  And if we get him, say goodbye to the development of any of our young guys.  I don't get it.

If its any consolation, they're saying #3 will not be offered in any package for him, so it's clear Houston has no leverage.

If they take back Batum, Rozier and no first rounders are included I am fine with this.  Lots of salary but we are in a decent spot cap wise after this season.

Jordan never cared about building a winning team or culture. He cares about how many seats in the arena he could fill up.

I don't believe this.   He was insanely wealthy before buying this franchise.    Also there is revenue sharing in the NBA.    Jordan wants to be a successful owner but he just isn't good at it.    But I don't believe he doesn't want to win, that's all Jordan cares about, that is his whole life is winning.    However, it sounds like his ego puts him in situations where he ignores experts.

[Wanderlai]

This franchise will never learn.
