If you check his previous posts, he tweeted the same with Chandler Parsons, Jeremy Lin, Dwight Howard, and James Harden. He's simply listing out Rockets who are on the all-star ballot. Nothing else to make of this.

I did see it and found it funny considering he purposely hasn't played.

context be [dang]ed... that's hilarious.  Really fits into the perception of Morey as some guy who is trying to create a "star' asset out of an overpaid role player.

Asik is not overpaid. Want to see an overpaid center, check out Andrew Bogut.

Why is Bogut your example?  Bogut is better than Asik at basically everything.

Except for staying healthy. Freak accidents or not, Bogut spends a lot of time in a suit.
At least a goldfish with a Lincoln Log on its back goin' across your floor to your sock drawer has a miraculous connotation to it.

It's too bad because bought was the whole package.  I think I'd still like him on the but much like humphries it would need to be at certain money.

Asik averaged 11 pts 11 rebounds last season didnt he? At 8 million against the cap he's good value. The 7 million 'off the cap' is fine if it means we dont pay him 10 million against the cap for 2 years.
Rondo will make him close if not a 16/10 guy with lobs and easy looks.
It'll just be to bad we couldn't do the deal before the 20th so we can showcase Asik and trade him on draft night. Would be a great piece if we wanted to trade for Carmelo and T Chandler.
Morey's already done the marketing for us so he'd look like he's finally reached his potential when all he's done is play with Rondo.
"We are lucky we have a very patient GM that isn't willing to settle for being good and coming close. He wants to win a championship and we have the potential to get there still with our roster and assets."

quoting 'Greg B' on RealGM after 2017 trade deadline.
Read that last line again. One more time.

I call BS on this Bogut can't defend nor is he as good as a rebounder.    Maybe this year with Asik benched but compare them last year and his boards are inferior.  He also is a better defender than Asik.  Bogut is the better shooter I grant you that.

Well at least bogut has already had twice the career asik has who has been a 30 min starter for exactly one year on an 8th seeded team.

Plus just looking at Asik younknow he's the type of big that's gonna have all sorts of foot and whatever injuries.

I mean the guy has barely played in his career, I'd be terrifoed of banking on him staying on the floor long term.

I'm not completely against the trade but I certainly won't be upset to keep that pick. Not to mention Bass and Lee haven't exactly been dead weight

How does it effect them or their trade value on the floor now though knowing they are being dangled in trade talks. Good thing Rondo is coming back everybody will be fed the ball and happy again lol
