Gary Neal, Should we make run for him?

Rockets aren't trading Parsons. Even for Aldridge.

 

And so what lead you to conclude this was the best thread available to put your suggestion?

 

YES! UFA

 

I dont want them to. But at this stage Aldridge is better

 

Because I value your opinion tremendously:grin:

 

The Rockets are not in win now mode.

 

What mode are they in?

 

They wouldn't be winning anything after that trade.

 

I'll trust the Spurs front office on this one. If they had him and let him go, I don't think I want the Rockets involved.

 

Parsons is a better fit than Aldridge. LA is great and more dominant on his own, but we need a versatile 3 like Parsons more. It makes no sense to trade Parsons/Asik for Aldridge imo.

 

Even if they only let him go due to signing a more expensive option and not being able to get him to take a minimum deal?

 

Signed,

Luis Scola

 

Horrible defender.

Francisco Garcia>Omri Casspi>James Anderson>Gary Neal

 

This is actually smarter than it sounds.

 

You posted that trade offer in this thread, in the gasol/bosh/LMA thread in the dish, and in the trade idea thread. Why?

 

I prefer Brad or Mike Miller

WOW! The #Spurs have withdrawn their offer to Gary Neal! Likely to make room for Greg Oden. Neal could end up in HOU, LA, NYK even IND.

Teams looking for shooters may have found a gem in Gary Neal. Doesn't seem like much, but could be big asset off the bench for contender.

 

If we lose out on the Mike Miller contest than I would love to sign this guy (if the price is right). For the same reasoning I want Mike Miller. I have a strong feeling either Lin or Asik are going to get traded and if not a minor trade at the deadline. Having guys like Neal will allow us to take a better quality player coming in while giving up more quantity. Allowing us not having to make desperation moves such as T-mac, Delonte West, or a D-leaguer.
