    Now that I am aware that McGee has been participating in the USA camp. I think it's only fair we offer something like this:

    Shane Battier for McGee

    Why Wiz do this deal: Battier gives them more veteran leadership and a lockdown defender. The exact type of guy contenders want on there team.

    Why Rockets do this deal: Obviously losing Battier is a huge loss but we have a clone in Ariza without the leadership abilities. Ariza has the potential to be considered a top 3 defender in the NBA.

    McGee, long and athletic looks very promising.

    Nice and efficient, doesn't waste shots, doesn't turn the ball over. Just like Battier. I like it.

    SackofRice
    Scola
    Ariza
    Battier
    Brooks

    No ball-stoppers in that lineup. Go Moreyball!

    That's a good news. We need size and I still hope we will make a push for a center. WIthout Yao, we really don't have anybody aven 7'0 tall. And that's not good for us, even if we wanna play uptempo.

    Btw, I haven't seen this guy play at all. Hopefully he will bring something good to this team. Maybe a new 'Luis Scola' type of player.

    Omg an on topic post! I applaud you sir. Don't you have some ridiculous trades to offer up that don't even include the player whose name happens to be I'm the thread title?!? Oh well, I'm sure someone else will carry the flame.

    He was complaining that the other poster all had post that had nothing to do with the topic. And he complemented you for actually posting something that was about Andersen.

    I'm happy that we signed Andersen.

    p.s. maybe you were sarcastic, but than I didn't get the sarcasm.

    Just going to reiterate this so no crazy rumors are being spread, DM did NOT say he would trade Yao, he said he would trade HIMSELF!

    ROFL! Talk about no sense of humor... people Yao was impressed at the guys in the pickup game... Morey was agreeing that they looked good.

    yeesh! "Why so serious?"

    here's the link to the actual tweet - I think I need to give a lesson on how to post the links to them ;)

    Yao Ming saw pick up game and questioned Morey why pick up game no have stars and why idiot GM no pick up stars for Rockets. Ming demanded f team no have stars Morey might as well trade Ming to play with Kobe at Lake. Morey agreed Yao Ming deserves to play with Kobe at Lake! Yao Ming no want to play with no stats no stars Battier and Ariza.

    Absolutely, The team needs to add to their front court. The team still needs one big player to try and fight for a better seeding for the playoffs. I still believe they will make the playoffs. :)
