    Well I'm just baffled ... If Rockets trade Jordan Hill, Martin, and the Knicks pick we have officially severed all ties with McGrady......

    Ill get over it

    Hou: Pau
    LA: CP3 + Scola
    NO: Martin (2yr) + Dragic (1yr) + Hill (2yr) + Ebanks (1yr) + Caracter (1yr)

    Instead of a TE the Lakers add more salary.

    lol, u must be joking

    Jordan Hill has probably maxed on his potential as a player, and Thabeet really is still developing and has a vast amount of untapped potential.

    He plays good, and makes good things happen on defense, and all those missed layups and put-backs with Chuck Hayes will be guaranteed dunks with Thabeet.

    His biggest problem is staying out of foul trouble and getting extended playing time to see what he can do on the court.

    Pairing Thabeet (a defensive specialist) with Pau (an offensive threat) might very well work out, again, if Thabeet learns how to stay out of foul trouble, lol cos he's always trying to swat or block every ball coming into the paint.

    I hope Stern stays his usual evil, I don't care if I piss you off self and denies this trade again. If the goal is to get more youth and better picks I don't see how any trade that doesn't include Bynum accomplishes that. I'll admit I think we are getting raped and hope it fails for that reason, but I would also prefer us to to help LA build another dynasty.

    Please be the ass that you are Stern. You didn't care about backlash before...don't care now. Summon the version of you that stole the Sonics from Seattle and laughed about it.

    How come we r losing all these players and only getting Pau in return. why the hell is Ebanks or Carater not coming to Houston, and if Scola ends up in LA, then Commissioner Stern blocked the first deal to get more **** for LA
