    I think they should trade #12 & #16 + Lowry + scola to Porland and get their #6 & #11

    and then trade Martin + Pat Pat + Morris + #18 to Toronto to get #8

    so at the end of the day we come up with #6, #8, #11, + Fillers - i think this would be enough to get Howard from Orl. dont think they can refuse.

    Leurer does a better job driving to the basket than Kevin Martin.

    Hmmm... guess who Jon Leuer did his pre-draft prep work with?

    More like Martin, Morris and 12 for #2+contract(s)
    Lowry and 16 for 5
    Keep #18
    So, 2, 5 and 18th picks.

    The Houston Rockets continued stockpiling first-round picks Wednesday in a bid to move into the top 10 of Thursday night's draft and enhance their chances of landing a star player they can build around, league sources told CBSSports.com.

    While Houston has not given up on making a play for Orlando center Dwight Howard, rival executives believe their swap of the 14th pick with Milwaukee for the 12th pick Wednesday gave them an arsenal of the 12th, 16th and 18th picks that could be used to climb into the upper lottery. The Rockets are targeting at least one premier pick or "significant" veterans, according to a person familiar with the team's plan.

    He is our backup now. I think you just saw Lowry go out the window in that subtle move.

    That's Moreyspeak for "We want you other GMs to believe we think these guys are important enough to keep on our team so that they might seem to have some actual value and aren't just pointless throw-ins when we propose you take them off our hands via a trade in the next 24 hours or so."

    I guess I saw Leuer play more for Wisconsin than for Milwaukee-- not much. Anyone familiar with his game? Does he ever go left? Can he defend?

    I wish we could have traded the 18th for the 12th.

    12th
    14th
    16th

    3 top 16 picks!

    Ric on ESPN just said Howard will not be moved by draft night.
