Wednesday, Feburary 18th 2009 - the calm before the STORM!

I pray and hope that something gets done that will improve the team even if it is a minor move. I would prefer to pick up a pg that will help facilitate (Duhon, Felton, etc.) and possibly a shooter.

 

No, I don't think a blockbuster trade will go down.

 

If anything happens it will be Landry moving for some other bit player, imo.

I seriously doubt that a deal will be done at all now.

 

i think the best deal that they can make is keeping t-mac off the court for right now. the teams chemistry seems more intact without him. but for next year, i would love to see healthy t-mac back in charge, even if we have to part with artest.

 

Nothing will happen.
Maybe something very small invlolving Luther Head.
There's only a 20% chance Artest will be traded according to ESPN, and he would have to be included in a deal for something significant.
Plus, McGrady can't be dealt, so I wouldn't expect much to happen.

 

Something is bound to happen Morey just wont sit there. He is a crafty man and like all of us know its time for the magician to show is his next trick. Hopefully on Friday night we will see Vince dunking on Dampier!!!!!

 

i doubt anything significant will happen

 

We'd have to give up Artest, landry, head, and battier.
Ridiculous trade in my opinion.

 

I have a feeling morey up to someting with landry, not leting him return to the game made me wonder.

 

I predict Luther Head for a future conditional 1st rounder.

 

Tmac is out of this season. The rockets won't be considered as a contender anymore. No star player would want to be here. And, other teams know what the rockets really need now, they would ask for high price, just like the nets.

If the rockets make a move, it would be only for the future or box office.

 

I think at the most we would lose around 4 players. In actuality I think we will probably only move 3 players and bring in 2-4 players. We shall see in the next 24 hours.

 

I have a feeling that you're going to be greatly disappointed tomorrow. I don't see anything being done at this point. With McGrady out, I can't imagine a scenario where they'd trade Artest.

 

Its a combination of those 3 players and being that Morey is so high on Battier I doubt he goes but we need a star player and much more a closer and I dont think either Yao Ming or Ron Artest got that at least with Vince we get some type of closer who will drive to the basket!!!

 

If any trade gets done I have a feeling it will involve Mike Miller. He is the one who has been talked about the least, which seems to go along with Morey's M.O. That being said, with Tmac more than likely out for the season, I really dont see a significant trade going down, although Head for cash or a draft pick would definitely brighten my day.

 

Nothing major only minor

 

If Spurs get Jefferson we are in trouble. Why in the hell did Morey go after Carter instead of Jefferson? I would much rather have Jefferson on this team.

 

nope in fact if tmac is done for the season i hope nothing changes if that means he doesnt come back and his 23 mil next is very valuable

 

Ive been kind of all over the place with my thinking. I have a gut feeling that IF a trade happens, it will be a minor "piece to the puzzle" type deal involving Head or Landry... maybe Dorsey is thrown in or something...

Yao can give us 20-25 pg... Artest can give us 15-20 pg consistently. We need another rebounder or someone to consistently give us10-12 pg. Mike Miller in a reserve role as a spot up shooter can give us 10 pg. Von Wafer is emergin as a consistently good player. He isnt great but he IS shifty and quick. He does have another gear and gets to the rim and finishes or is fouled. I like our team right now. Another piece may be nice but if it doesnt happen... Im still going to enjoy going to TC every home game to watch them play.
