    Tomorrow will be the deadline and Rockets are in need of trade. I really believe that the Rockets should get over EG and trade him and Mobley. They have to realize that Yao needs a solid PF to help him out. The change I believe would be enough to get the Rockets to the playoffs. I am not going to mention who to trade for, just make a move.:D

    Even if this seems like the eleventh THOUSAND trade thread in a couple of days, my frustration is so great that I will support it:

    We absolutely HAVE to do something about the 4 and the 1.

    Mobley > Miller & Piatkowsky

    Rice & Griffin > Grant

    pull the trigger NOW for chrissakes!

    The Rockets won't make a trade...write it down...

    Don't worry, there will be plenty of changes to this team once our lovable group of underachievers crawls to the finish line and mercifully ends this god awful season...

    Please no Brian Grant. Les would be better off saving the whales with that money.

    Trade the coach for a sack of plant fertilizer.



    Houston gets manure.

    Home Depot gets manure.

    TRADE ACCEPTED.

    I share your pain A-Train...

    And as much as I hate the idea... I don't see a trade happenning either.

    Damn!

    I can't stand my girlfriend who doesn't even care about basketball making fun of me.

    You guys are dreaming!

    We simply do NOT have the talent to pull an Elton Brand trade.

    What do you guys prefer? Staying stuck with Rice, who is a poor excuse for the player he once was and the eternal promise of development of Eddie Griffin and our beloved jump shooting softie Mo at the 4?

    Something has to be done, and with the pieces we can offer, Brian Grant is obviously the best choice available. We are NOT going to be under the cap anytime soon, even if we let Rice's contract expire next season. Might as well improve the team then.

    Tell me, is there a 4 we could have a shot that is a better option than Grant? And spare me the bull about his contract.

    I hate to say that, but even Tyson Chander looks way much better than EG now...

    My trade Idea.

    Houston trades Griffin, Mobley, and Nachbar
    LA Clippers trade Brand, Jaric, and Q. Richardson.

    Line up
    C-Ming/Cato/Collier
    PF-Brand/Taylor
    SF-Posey/Morris
    SG-Francis/"Q"/Hawkins
    PG-Jaric/Moochie/Maddox
