    I'd trade Lowry for a top three pick. Unfortunately, Sacramento needs a 3 and 4 as badly as they need a 1. They already traded Omri Casspi and a 1st round pick for Hickson, which didn't work out. Chuck hasn't worked for them, either. If they get someone like Thomas Robinson they won't give him up for Lowry.

    Maybe they will win a top 3 pick... if they do maybe they would accept a bigger package for it, say Lowry + Morris + Scola?

    I would only offer that, if they got a top 3 pick in the lottery.

    Nobody turned on Lowry. Stop being a dipsh.it. He's our most valuable trade asset and we need a franchise player no matter how we can get him.

    Stop being presumptuous a-hole, we still need a future point guard. Dragic has played well, but I'm not sure he's better than Lowry and he can keep this level of play.

    Houston needs other things, in addition to a franchise player.

    If I was the Kings i'd definitely be tempted to trade a 3rd or 4th pick for lowry. Likewise if i was the rockets it would also be a very tempting trade. As long as we can sign goran i'm all for it.

    And Houston needs to do everything it can to get a franchise player.

    I'd trade Lowry+Scola (D-Mo is coming over, he's going to need the mins any ways) in a heart beat for a top 5 pick.

    Some teams have spent years and years searching for a franchise player, if you have a shot at a high potential rookie you go for it. As good as Lowry is and every other player on the Rockets they are all replaceable. Rockets need that one guy that is untouchable...

    Just like Cousins. No matter how much of a headcase he was Sac wasn't trading him away.

    Dragic may not be better, but Dragic + a potential star is better than Lowry and a late lottery pick. We have to swing for the fences at some point.

    Last year, Cousins made Bynum look like he had the maturity of Battier in comparison. Since the coaching change in Sac this season, it's been the other way around. They're both headcases with ridiculous potential, but I'm partial to Cousins' issues since he seems to really want to win and gets frustrated with playing with the likes of Evans--I don't blame him either. On the other hand, Bynum's immaturity is much more self-centered and ego-driven. The dude wants to be the man on his team, which is fine, but the way he expresses that is by pouting and getting stupid ass techs.

    I'd trade lowry and scola for Robinson as long as we can resign Goran. I think that deal makes both team better the rockets gets potential franchise player in Robinson and sac get a nice pf in scola to play with cousins and a real pg to get everyone the ball. Sacramento might win 50 games next yr with that trade and I still think the rockets make the playoffs also and have a young star to build around.
