    If it was Drummond the Rockets take Camby could be a perfect mentor to him.

    I'm actually leaning towards hoping they go Drummond, kid has got the skills, Camby and McHale could teach him how a big man is supposed to play in the NBA.

    Was anyone else impressed by his passion. Towards the end of the season after their collapse, he was still pumped and fighting to play. i had labeled him as weak hearted player, but when i saw him with that attitude at the end on the year , i became a huuuge fan.

    I say make the trade with SacTown Lowry, #12 & #16 for Tyreke & #5, Draft Drummond & keep him. Screw Howard, doesn't wanna be here anyway. Don't get me wrong, I would love to Have Howard in a Rockets Uni but would rather grab another All Star, say Smith from Atlanta for Scola & PPat & #18. Resign Goran & Lee we're all set....

    Camby was the hardest working player at the end of the season, which says a lot about the lack of intensity of this team. The guy played his heart out, was diving on the floor, making threes, making big plays and rebounding like crazy to get us that 8th seed. Morey better bring him back asap!

    Varajao + Beal, or MKG is worth much more to them and their direction then anything we can give them. They might be able to get that same "nice center" with their 24th pick.

    Ditto.

    Potentially a very tall frontcourt with Howard or Drummond, Camby, DMo, Parsons, and Morris all tall for their position.

    just saw the article on espn talking about us being close with sacramento. Said they would be leaving a lot on the table if they walk away from the trade... what could it be besides lowry and two of the three picks? possibly martin as well? :confused:
