    Brooks makes Howard expendable. Sell high on DH.

    things to keep a eye on with Morey

    - Back up SGs that can play D (shumpert etc)
    - Starting PGs that are more of a floor general than bev is (rondo etc)
    - Back up centers that can play D ( Fillers )
    - Camby's health before trade deadline (he's doing his rehabilitation at the rockets facility)
    - Back up (SOLID) 4s & 3s with playoff experience

    What is wrong with that? Rose knees have to be a concern, and the Rox could afford to wait on him to heal.

    Chicago wouldn't give up on Rose this easily, I would be surprised if they did. They would give Rose another season probably.

    Everybody just want to trade good and unselfish player away. Selfish players are here to keep.

    It seems very likely that Brooks, after a fantastic game, will be the sixth man and back up Beverley. The problem is that most clutchfans want a guard or guards that are the all-star level such as Rondo, and this moving Brooks doesn't meet the criteria. Eventhough, Lin's PER is close to 19, which is close to the all-star level and he is ranked 12th among all point guards in the NBA in PER, Value Added, and Wins produced, this should not stop the Rockets from relegating him to the bench and then trading him,as it is quite obvious that Brooks and Beverley are much better. Trading Lin will open up a great number of possibilities.

    Great idea lets get Rose. I am sure that none of his injuries will reduces his performance. His reduced performance this year (his is not ranked in the top 15 point guards in PER, WS, ETC) is an abberation and when he heals he will return in a year as good as he was before. Also,two injuries in close succesion does not mean that he may be injury prone .Look at Deron Williams,Amarie Studemier they are doing well.

    he is not going to trade them away unless he gets 'high' value in return. And to get lex to part with lin, you basically have to be getting back an all star.

    Great idea. We may get alot of first round,unproven picks in the draft. Sounds like good reasoning.

    Hell no. DH could be the answer to our PG. Harden and Lin TO too much. Time for DH to have a go!

    I say Brooks to play Center and DH to play PG. Harden back to his favorite spot being the 6th man. Lin? He can go to the cold end of the pine.

    Brooks made Morey expendable. Trade Morey for Pop.

    Why do you not just put the "DD" in your signature? Do we have any mathematicians that can calculate how many hours of his life he has wasted by scrolling down with each of his many posts and typing "DD"?

    For all the talk about the LOFs being too much on this board... I see the underestimating of Lin to be just a epidemic...

    This is just a ridiculous post and I doubt the individual that posted this even knows why.
