    ESPN reports Mitch will be a Laker soon and Avery Johnson is signing with Nuggets. No big loss to us, although CWebb signing was.

    Who's left and when do we get some news? Hakeem to TOR...I wish for Keon and change.

    I would love to get Keon. I'm not sure what his contract is, but he's just a cheaper Cato that actually tries.

    I don't think the Rockets can move until the whole Hakeem situation is resolved.

    Keon Clark's contract is roughly $4.5 million over the next two years. That would be a great deal if we could pull it off but there would need to be more Toronto players involved to make the trade work.

    How about Keon, Bradley (1st DC), and Curry (b/u SG) for Dream and Wiz.

    Probably should check realGM (for salaries)...but we get a couple of young big guys and one great/old/slow 3pt shooter for dream (who could put Raps over in the East) and Wiz (replaces Curry, plus his contract is up when Carter's must be renewed).

    Doesn't Keon Clark weigh about 210 lbs? The guy is skinnier than KG, who began his career as a SF.

    I would love to have him for Dream, but he isn't really a solution for a starting C.

    Still, his shotblocking and hustle would be a HUGE improvement over Cato.

    Keon won't be able to play center for 82 games. His frame is better built to play PF.

    Keon is light, but in a zone his shot blocking and jumping ability should be a great asset.

    Plus he'd run just about every other C/PF to death.

    Keon won’t be playing center for even a minute.

    Surely guys we have better things to do than to discuss Keon Clarke coming to Houston.
