    Of course they're "looking at him."

    The question is who the **** do the Rockets have that Portland will want?

    Didn't LMA just come out and say he's happy in Portland and he likes how the roster has taken shape this year? :(

    LMA cannot force a trade. And he is on a young team with a great PG and a top 10 SF. Their SG and center positions initially appear solid. And they have a serviceable bench. You can dream on, but it won't make it true.

    Rockets should be in win championship now mode. Aldridge being 28 doesn't bother me...he's still in his prime.

    You expect to get a 26/7legit #1 scorer for Asik.

    Good luck with that.

    Parsons name might be in the mix if they're trying to get LMA

    Frye's an "untradeable" contract right now but he'll be an expiring contract next year.

    Lin, Asik, Smith
    for Dragic, Plumlee, Frye, + 2014 1st pick (Suns have 4 of these?)

    Next year when Aldridge is expiring and won't sign an extension flip this Suns package for him.

    Short term fix at PG & PF but long term with an eye on Aldridge or whichever star PF is available.
