    I'm sure you are all going to be honest.

    The team is better off today than they were yesterday. But that's not enough. When you rely on rebuilding via trade, the expectations need to be much higher than marginal improvement at the trade deadline.

    If its Camby and that's it, I give it a D overall.

    Just remember the Dragic trade was announced about 30 min after the deadline last year. Hold off on this.

    giving them a grade without knowing the deals they offered or the deals offered to us is just stupid.

    The move made wasn't bad or great, but will help us in making the playoffs.

    I wish we could have done more, but im not going to crucify them for not doing something if it wasn't there or the price was ridiculous.

    Anytime you can get rid of our 2 worst players for a good Center that plays very good Defense that would start for most teams... I give it an A

    Our post Defense is the reason why we have been struggling lately

    Yes, I'm holding off on my grade to make sure all trades are in. But if it is only Camby and Fisher, I'm giving them a big flat "D"...not an F because both trades were for the better, but not enough for what this team really needs.

    The trade for Camby was a B or maybe C+, but giving up a first rounder for Fisher dropped it all the way down to a D. The Rockets stuck to their ground of aiming for the playoffs. It makes sense for this year, but beyond that.. ouch.

    A for effort. Morey worked hard to land a star. No one wants to be the only star player on a team when there are teams with 3 star players.

    B for winning in both trades, and getting another 1st round pick in this draft.

    Even if we can offer the max to Williams, he won't sign here.
