This is just a fun little question. What team would AB fit with best? Somewhere he would start and make the team better. I know some don't care and just want the best deal for him, but humor me.

Machine Gun midget guards only work well on crappy talent starved losing teams. See Evans, Tyreke.

If he accepted that his best role on a team serious about winning was off the bench as a sparkplug, I'd love him to stay. If he got it through his head that a point guard has to be more about setting others up than anything else, keep him.

As it stands, ship him to whichever offense-starved basement dweller is willing to send a (high) second round pick. Minnesota sounds fine to me.

Congrats, this might be one of the least objective player reviews I have seen on this very objective board.

Well, he can't be a starter for any good team, that's for sure. Bench player, any team except Boston could use him.

Scola, Brooks, and Jeffries for Bosh.

Martin, Brooks, and Miller for Wade.

Fit? I dunno, but havent the wolves and kings inquired about him?

The question should be if he is traded, what can the rockets get for him. Since we know these two teams are interested in him, I would focus on who they would want to give up.

The wolves:
Telfair, there were rumors about them wanting to ship him out. He wouldn't really help our team imo, so I wouldn't expect the Rockets to consider him. He is only shooting 42% and 37% from 3.

Pekovic? Not that good, he is a rookie, but he is a center and we desperately need height. Averaging about 13 minutes, 47%, with .66 blocks and 3 rebounds.

The only thing I want in return for Brooks is size, legitimate size. I love Aaron, but if he is gonna go, I don't expect to get much for him, and I don't think we need to get much for him. I really think our focus should be centered on a center. We are just too damn small. The wolves don't really have anyone that we need.

The Kings:
Dalembert? Almost 7 rebounds and 1.5 blocks. He's not great, and hasn't really shown anything since Philly, but he is a center and he is capable of blocking shots.

Whiteside, a 7 foot rookie sitting on the bench.

Those two teams can't offer us any talent to equal what we are giving away in Aaron. I don't think a trade with either is a smart idea, but if I had to choose, I would take Whiteside or Dalembert, Whiteside has potential, so I would prefer him.




What other teams would be willing to take on a small shoot first pg? I think he would work well with the clippers if they had Kaman, maybe Orlando? It still comes down to what can these teams offer the Rockets, and I don't think that is much.

I am sure if a trade is made, it will surprise the crap out of me, I don't expect us to trade him for nothing, I am sure if Morey ships him out he'll get SOMETHING to help us out.

Which team would he fit best with regardless of what they could give us?

If so either Heat (cuz another shooter around that team would be nasty), or a team like the Cavs who have nothing and he is free to do whatever he wants.
