<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>With the Rockets seeking additional medical tests before extending a contract offer to restricted free agent Carl Landry, Landry's agent shot back that the request was designed to frighten off other suitors and said the tactic has backfired. Agent Buddy Baker said Tuesday that Landry has no health issues, and that Dr. James Andrews declared Landry's right knee to be sound. "Obviously, I view it as a move on (Morey's) part to undercut his value and dissuade the interest he has garnered," Baker said. "The reverse has happened. Teams have taken the position that he will not match offers. That has opened the floodgates. They are operating as if (Landry) was an unrestricted free agent."</div> Houston Chronicle
I think Buddy Baker is bipolar. Baker was the guy who laughed at the Rockets offer sheet to Landry last year. Landry needs a new agent.

I call BS on that. No team is going to throw the MLE at Landry and risk their allowance tied up for 7 days. We'll match anything Landry gets. But man, with friggin' DeSagna Diop getting the full MLE, Landry probably would too.
