    That "very good team" has only been good for 2 seasons.

    one season = ran into the lakers...sure they had a chance...but Kobe is Kobe.

    another season = coach got sick

    excuse me if I'm not ready to label him a loser

    OK the proposed trade i showed was us giving trash for Melo. But look at it this way if they are in a rebuilding mode and are looking for a new franchise player Morey can offer the Knicks picks which are first round. So they may be getting crap in players but they potentially could get a very high pick in the next two drafts, which could be enough for them to take a deal without brooks or martin.

    Maybe Harry Ellis will help negotiate. :p

    "Hey, Babe -- I negotiate million dollar deals for breakfast..." (That was 1988, though.)

    I would rather give up Brooks. With Melo, Martin, Lowry and Yao we will get too many three throw attempts to count.

    Can any other team compete with Rockets':

    1, Trade exception?
    2. Expirings (keeping Battier would be a huge plus)?
    3. Draft picks?
    4. Young talent (Assets)?

    I think we have some competition in NJ if Anthony is truly interested in going there.
    http://www.netsdaily.com/2010/8/17/1627404/nets-trade-assets-are-varied

    1. Expiring contracts
    2. Cap space
    3. Draft Picks (Better then ours)
    4. Trade exception (Not as high as ours though)
    5. Cash

    It will come down to who gives up more.

    NJ maybe. NYK has a nice expiring, Rockets have TWO. Rockets 6 mil TE. Young talent? Nets have Favors, NYK have Gallo, Rockets have Hill? Bud? Patpat?

    Picks...Rockets have 2 good ones in the next two yrs potentially.
