    Thank God I really dont like this as much as some people do, I have a feeling they want to unload a whole bunch of crap on who ever takes on Bogut.

    Maybe no Bogut, but the Rockets could look to unload Martin's contract. Especially if Dwight is not moved.

    If Bogut gets traded for a deal less then say Martin, Dally, and Patterson/nyc pick I am done with Morey. Unless of course he does something better then Bogut.

    I know the last report said the Rockets weren't interested in Bogut but I personally would give up a lot for a Jennigns and Bogut combo.

    So would I, however so would other teams. The Rockets limited assets would hinder and trade for both Jennings and Bogut.

    Why would anyone give up a LOT for Jennings + Bogut? You realize this is the 1-2 punch in the LEastern Conference that has accomplished nothing, right?

    That Bogut is constantly injured, and even when not, isn't THAT special - a top center, sure, but that's not saying much. Which is besides the point because he IS constantly injured. He is basically a 15-16 PER guy when healthy. Since his major injury, he has been a below average scorer as well, so is no longer efficient. And he gets paid $13 and $14 million the next two years. I concede that he is a solid interior presence and defender.. but again, he's never healthy.

    Jennings is OK, young and cheap... but we already have a version of that, probably better.

    Any source on the draft picks? I'd assume it would be the ny pick and minny second rd pick.

    I gues it would come down to how many, I would hate to give up our future for an injury prone center and a drama headcase that will also clash with our coach and will end up rotting in the bench.

    Sounds about right. Future picks hard to trade due to the pick owed to NJ.

    Jax isn't all that relevant. Only 1 yr left on the deal. Besides, maybe he can play a little. This is all about how cnfidenf you feel about Bogut.

    Jax is from PA, TX (home of UGK) so I think coming home could add extra motivation. I would do trade, although I hate losing Lee.

    Losing Lee is offset by picking up Jax (Dwight attractant). We could always sign Lee back in the offseason with our cap space. Bogut would be bait for Orlando to send us Dwight. We send Martin and Dally to Milwaukee. Bogut goes to Orlando along with Lowry and Patterson and a pick. We get Dwight. Still have enough pieces left over to get DWill if NJ throws in the towel with Dragic, Morris, Scola, expiring, pick.

    If this trade goes down...we will likely have 0 picks in a very talented draft class
