    I'm intrigued.

    Tell us more about this "deal" you speak of.

    Unless you are sure you're getting a star to play with Dwight it would be dumb to give them anything they want.

    They would demand too much for Dwight. I say we go after Nene.

    + Left nut.

    Come to think of it, throw in the right one, too.

    Shouldn't have let Adelman go, this would be the deal

    Yao + Adelman for Howard + Stan Van Gundy and his mustache

    Why trade for him? dump Scola for a high pick in the draft and the Rockets have the cap room to sign him outright. And can probably add Biyombo and Kawhi in the draft

    I think if we keep Lee around and hire SVG after he gets fired and have Dream recruit him, he's a Rocket especially with Lowry, Martin, Hayes and PP to play with.

    Isn't that "Random Trade Ideas" thread still active?

    It's officially the offseason.

    Ah, here it is: http://bbs.clutchfans.net/showthread.php?t=190437

    Maybe we need one for the 2011-12 season now. Frankly, I come here looking for news and not some random dude's unrealistic trade idea. It's good to keep all of those crackbrained proposals neatly organized in one place.

    Yao is officially not a Rocket at the moment. The season has ended and he has no contract or obligation of affiliation. Do you get my inclination?

    It would most likely take Luis scola + Kevin Martin or Kyle Lowry + young talent + draft picks to get him...

    Cassell, Horry, Brent Price and Mark Bryant for Dwight Howard.

    Seriously though, we already screwed Orlando once with the T-Mac deal, do you think they'll want to do business with us after that? Haha. Orlando will never do anything with Houston again.

    Trade would've made more sense with Chucky Brown instead of Price!

    Even if Dwight told the Magic he was not resigning, I'm not sure a package of Martin, Scola, TWill, JHill, Thabeet, Miller and picks for Howard and Arenas (worst contract in the league) would be enough.
