Random Houston Rockets Trade Ideas - 2015-16

C'mon Morey, make that Woj bomb happen already. My body is ready and willing.

 

There's absolutely nothing wrong with getting 50 or even 25 cents on the dollar in trading Dwight. Anything's better than 1) having to continue to watch Dwight ruin our offense and 2) getting zero value in return if he opts out

 

Sure there is.

If you have to do a 4 for 1 type deal for salary reasons that means you are cutting, trading other players to make the roster numbers work. If even one of those guys has a salary beyond this year then you have reduced your available cap room.

This team isn't going anywhere this year so there is no reason to make a move just to make a move. You have to get at least one piece that you like for next year, developmental reasons, trade asset or draft pick. Otherwise it's just a waste and it hurts the perception of your franchise for no reason.

 

Haha what is this, trying to re-unite the old gang?

 

Blockbuster!!!!

Houston gets: Kevin love, OJ Mayo, Mozgov, and mo Williams

Cleveland gets: Dwight Howard, T Jones and Carter-Williams

Bucks get: Lawson

Who says no?

 

Cleveland? Haha. MCW is a weird fit on a team that needs shooters. In fact, none of those guys they are getting can shoot.

 

Hey man its not my job to make them better lol but when I did put that trade into the trade machine the Cavs were the only team that gained projected wins

 

I'm not ragging on you because I can't come up with a better trade haha. I'm just pointing out why it may not work.

The projected wins thing is weird. I think it's PER-based. Doesn't really translate well to reality.

 

Let them keep Mo Williams and switch MCW and Mayo

Houston gets: Kevin love, Carter-Williams, Mozgov

Cleveland gets: Dwight Howard, T Jones and OJ Mayo

Bucks get: Lawson

Dwight for Big Al, Frank the tank, Jerry Lin and picks.

 

I'd Rather do
Cleveland: D.Howard
Clippers: Kevin Love, Houston, Cleveland 1st rounders
HOUSTON: Blake Griffin, Timofey Mozgov

 

That makes more sense for Cleveland I think, and Houston still comes out strong.

 

problem is Cleveland has stated repeated they aren't moving Klove. They want Ariza from us though.

 

I don't get their desire for Ariza, they want him to play the 2?

 

Yeah, and our problem is that they have only garbage to trade us, so let them stay like they are now and get booped by the Warriors again.

 

And the 3 in a small lineup.

Ariza is better then all their 2/3s so that makes sense.

 

Haha but Mo is the steal of that trade for us!!! That's our pablo prigioni

 

Morey get er done

 

you posted that yesterday. no good still. Why wouldn't the Cavs deal Love and a pick for Griffin straight?

 

Im only selling really high on howard or keeping him. I love howard and i want him to stay in houston.
