    Dragic
    Tyreke
    Parsons
    D-Mo
    Drummond

    I like that. Team becomes young instantly.

    Of course D-mo and Drummond will have to fight for starting minutes over Scola and Camby....but I like that.

    I would be stalling too. They want a better return for Evans who is being sold at his lowest. Lowry had a good season overall, but he didn't finish strong. I think Sacramento would leak this rumor to fish out more offers for Evans.

    The main reason they don't do this trade is because of GORAN DRAGIC. The Blazers, Kings, Raptors and several other teams have him on their radar. They would pay him $2-3 million extra per season over Lowry if it meant they could keep their pick. They know if Lowry is traded the Rockets won't pay as much to retain Dragic.

    Williams/Dragic
    Evans/Lee
    Parsons/Perry Jones/Morris
    Scola/Patterson
    Howard/Camby

    It's possible.

    Dragic
    Lee
    Parsons
    Josh Smith
    Dwight

    This could be our line-up since Deron is being a lil B :p

    I'm not a big fan of Drummond at all. IF we keep the fifth (If we get it at all), I'd want Beal. Not a big fan of Barnes either.

    I'd want Beal too but it's very unlikely that he is available at pick 5.

    Trading for Tyreke will ensure our team will suck another year and get another year of high lottery picks. Smart plan. Looks like Morey has been given the green light to go full tank mode.

    Sleepless nights?! I say restless days. :p

    Looks like the rumor mill has gone quiet for the day [today]. Expect something to 'break' late tonight or early early morning, like the past 2 days.

    Tyreke is just a throw in. People are failing to realise how much it takes to trade up into the top 5.

    Not sure if somebody already mentioned it but on the SVP show today Chad Ford said that the discussions between the Kings and Rockets has not involved any big names like Lowry or Evans. The discussed trade is apparently 14 and 16 with another young player like Morris or DMo.

    DMo was the young player he specifically mentioned the Kings being interested in too.
