    This is probably a little off, but I think Rondo is still on the block for the deal.

    Don't get me wrong, he's good player, but they probably could get a point guard to make up his difference. If they can find an impact player available.

    Not a smart move by Morey.

    He should be trying to trade down and getting a megastar in return. Teams are dying for our 14 & 16th pick.

    if at first you don't succeed, fry fry a hen.


    a trade to the bobcats for their first pick in exchange for our 14th and the 16th pick, lowry, martin, ppat, future first pick and most importantly a two day trip for Michael Jordan with Maury to Las Vegas, where Maury will play cards for him. Get it done!

    Well, what might be interesting about this isn't so much the Rockets desire to trade up, but maybe the Celtics desire to trade up.

    Would you trade #16 for #21 and #22?
