    Another stellar road performance from Kevin Martin. Might as well not even play him when the Rockets are away from Toyota Center.

    Actually, I would favor removing him altogether from the rotation and just making Lee or Budinger the starting SG.

    Amen to that, Get rid of him for anything.

    Let Lee start and Bud play off the bench, we would be better off

    Second straight year the Rockets limped into the trade dealine with the value of their assets crashing.

    What a horrible player, please take him out of the rotation. He's useless now.

    I honestly would take straight salary dump, although we could probably get something for him.

    We are a better team without him, I truly feel that way.

    Well, I figure that he will be a much, much better player once the deadline passes, if he is still on the Rockets.

    I think the anxiety will pass.

    If he goes to another team, he'll disappear even more.

    He already knows the Rockets don't want him that much, he just a mentally weak player. He needs to go.

    Scola is in the exact same situation, and gets paid less, but he is a Professional basketball player

    Trade him for Bogut. They're both injured. Let them have Patterson who they covet. They like Hill too. They don't think they can re-sign Ilyasova and Delfino who have expiring contracts. Work them in too as rentals.

    He's hustling on defense. He's just lost under McHale's offense and McHale trust him enough to play through it. They're not a good fit.

    Patterson and Martin for Bogut, I'd do in a heartbeat.


    Morey can find Patterson like players at will.

    He pulled this same crap in Sac when he wanted to be traded. I don't even know why I am suprised that he is pulling the same garbage here. He is such a freaking baby. You dont see scola acting all butt hurt becasue Morey tried to trade him.

    Sure, Kevin would play huge off a big man and I know they have worked to take away his move. And forget about the fact that he can't/won't D up on a consistent basis.

    But his lack of heart/effort/focus is inexcusable. This guy's always had an attitude ...He's not about winning basketball. There's a reason he's been through so many losing seasons. No pride/intestinal fortitude whatsoever.

    Ship em Daryl.

    Where are the Martin lovers now? I've been down on him since his Sac days.

    Hopefully, it will be the second strait year they have a resurgence after the trade deadline passes.
