    Teams just witnessed Luis Scola, Kevin Martin, Goran Dragic, and a first rounder could be had for an all star caliber player. The Rockets are now the trading partner everyone will want to deal with this season. Houston will pull a blockbuster trade by February, book it.

    Now that the upset posters have posted, maybe we can discuss some likey candidates other than Paul and Howard. If the 76ers think of moving AI, or the Pacers want to trade Danny Granger you can bet they will be calling Morey first.

    We probably lost out on extra cash to sign up any centers unless we have enough to get Deandre Jordan. Which I doubt.

    You have different intentions than many fans. Fans like tinman want to win it all. I will continue to support this team. Morey is doing a great job, and today he showed me how bad he wants to change the direction of this team.

    I'm not sure what teams would want the same package. Sure, the "package" could be broken up, added too, and so on, but honestly, who knows? Did anyone expect Morey to make a blockbuster deal like this to get Pau Gasol? Hardly. I don't know what will happen now, but yeah, people around the league noticed what Morey was offering, and what he wanted.

    I think you're wrong. Teams will realize how desperate the Rockets are.

    I think 27 other GM's get paid a heck of a lot of money to be aware of what other teams will give up for their players.

    I think we will continue to be invisible franchise.

    "What who?? Morey... LOLOLOLOLOLOL! No trade for him. We dont like player assets."

    Goran Dragic can not be traded until he sighed a 5 years contract with Rockets.
