    Wonder if we can get in the Boston trade, with them getting CP3, us getting Rondo (apparently NO is not hot on him), and NO getting multiple assets. For a guy like Rondo, I don't mind sending any assets, including Patterson / Lowry. Maybe something like Boston gets CP3, NO gets Lowry, Green (from Boston), Patterson, Kmart, and we get Rondo + pick (from Boston?). I know its a lot to give up, but at least Rondo is a legit piece to build around

    What possible deals to turn Martin and Scola into expiring contracts and draft picks do you have in mind? Seriously, because maybe we should do that ourselves then.

    And what young players do we have that you actually think Orlando would move Howard for as opposed to do so for Bynum (and perhaps Pau)? Buddhinger, Lee's expiring contract, Patterson...no way.

    I think the Rockets are good enough to make the playoffs as is, and would have after the trade too...

    What I don't think is that either of the teams would be good enough to be a contender in the WC.

    With or without Nene and Pau.......honestly, I thought it was clearing some of the overfill of players, and treading water.

    Now, this team still has too many players at the same positions....we need to trade some of our guys for future draft picks....
