    The Rockets will regret trading Budinger.

    i feel motiejunas isnt that far away from contributing, and i agree, his potential is way high. don't think morey is going to give up on him this soon.

    You know what guys I'm so sorry. I must completely over value our players.

    Morey is a God on here I forgot.

    Give up Hill and Budinger. Those lovebirds are a package deal anyway.

    Yup. The franchise will go down the drain. We needed to re sign the chuck wagon and trade for blair. Only then would we have been good to go :eek:

    If we throw extra young players into this deal I don't see how anyone can defend it.

    You keep saying "word is" like it is some inside info when in reality it is one person's hope with no factual justification.

    Have faith. I don't think Morey is dumb enough to give them Martin, Scola AND 2 of our best young players. He probably took a hint from the league, that they don't want our older borderline allstars, and took one off the deal .

    That is SPECULATION.

    And who is to say the two young players we give away aren't T-Will or Flynn or Thabeet?

    At this point, I don't even care if we give up too much. I'm sick of us always coming up short in trades and nothing ever happening. I just want this trade to go through so I have something to be excited about. Having a frontcourt of Nene/Gasol is definitely something to be excited about.

    Montiejunas' upside ceiling is probably Gasol. Yeah he's younger, but if trading him nets you a proven PF in Gasol plus Nene, you have to do the deal.

    What exactly do you propose we do with the team? Keep it as is? Tank? Just curious to hear your opinion

    We got Flynn to back up Lowry.

    We could put an auction bid for Billups. Him and Nene are good friends.
