Rockets, Hayes hold talks

While the Rockets have made little progress in chasing a new power forward in
free agency, they moved Friday toward keeping last season's starter.

Rockets general manager Daryl Morey and player agent Calvin Andrews, who
represents Rockets forward Chuck Hayes, said after their initial meeting that
they were confident that an agreement would be reached for Hayes to return.

"It went extremely well," Andrews said. "We didn't talk about specific
numbers yet, but we're very optimistic he will be re-signed as a Rocket. He
is at the stage he wants some security. But we are very optimistic things
will work out."

The Rockets have the right to match any offers Hayes could receive as a free
agent.

Hayes averaged 5.6 points and 6.7 rebounds, starting 43 of the 78 games he
played last season.

"As a preliminary meeting, I thought it went well," Morey said. "We'll
continue to go back and forth with them. We feel optimistic as well."

Andrews said he would like to see what else the Rockets do at the position to
help Hayes have a better idea where he fits with the Rockets. Morey has also
spoken with agents representing Darko Milicic, Joe Smith, Malik Allen, P.J.
Brown and Mikki Moore but has not been negotiating to sign any of the free
agents.

He said he has spent more time working on potential trades than with free
agents.

Morey has had talks with David Falk about signing Rockets center Dikembe
Mutombo, with Mutombo making it clear he wants to return to the Rockets for
one more season.

He said that the contract for first-round pick Aaron Brooks is now with the
lawyers, with the relative formality of signing Brooks expected before the
Rockets leave for Las Vegas on Monday.

Morey said he does not expect to sign second-round pick Carl Landry until
later in the summer after the team determines how it will use its midlevel
exception.

Last season, the Rockets used some of their midlevel exception money to sign
second-round pick Steve Novak after the summer league.

一些整理:

1.Morey已經和Hayes的經紀人談過了,雙方相信很快會達成協議(這裡有人認為Hayes會離開
  的嗎?)
2.Morey預計接下來會和老木的經紀人會談,老木已經說要替火箭再打一年
3.Morey已經和Milicic, Joe Smith,Malik Allen, P.J.Brown以及Moore的經紀人會談過了
  但是只是初步的會談而已,Morey說他目前比較放心力在運作交易上面
4.會在拉斯維加斯夏季聯盟開打前簽下Brooks
5.目前不急著和Landry簽約,因為打算看MLE怎麼使用再決定(有可能循去年Novak模式,拆
  MLE簽下Landry)

所以今年的MLE大概不可能完全拿來簽下一名球員,第三點提到的球員,除了小米力之外
幾乎不值得完全MLE....所以Morey打的主意應該是交易一名先發PF,然後拆MLE給Hayes
Landry以及一名4/5號搖擺的FA...今年會有PF軍團吧!

推 alubazace:所以不太會簽小米粒囉@@ 還是又是跟當初聲東擊西一樣XD
推 jcma:也不一定,Morey之前也說過如果有適合的人選,把完整MLE砸下去
→ jcma:也是未嘗不可...如果能用full MLE就得到小米粒那是大大值得
推 jcma:不過我還是覺得即使簽下小米力,還是要找一個老將壓陣
→ jcma:就像去年Howard做的事一樣,當更衣室領袖
推 mackulkov:Tmac年紀不小了吧 應該需要他來擔起這個責任囉~
推 fox0922:姚明也是時候該扛起領袖的責任了 畢竟球隊是以他打造的
→ fox0922:T-Mac一向都有點消極= =" 當領袖感覺太勉強他QQ
推 barkleyc:T-mac不會甩這種事情的啦 XD
推 barkleyc:姚明的個性感覺也很難做到這樣....
→ barkleyc:現在最怕的就是跟去年一樣 MJ又開始在休息室炫耀+耍大牌
→ fox0922:姚總有一天得做的 就像他在中國隊的角色一樣 全隊的支柱
推 yosky:姚跟Tmac都是低調的人阿 = =
推 alubazace:如果SF回來的話搞不好可以當這個角色XD?
推 herome:讓木桶伯來....巴拉巴拉
