    UHHH

    Camby averages more than 9 boards a game with only 22 min a game compared to Varejao's 32min

    Adding more role players. I rather keep the damn 12th pick and swing for the fences than pick up another guy that will only keep us where we are. They can keep him. Draft someone like Ross, Waiters, PJIII, Leonard than throw it out for a older center. Basically we trade Sammy for Varejao if this happens.

    Again, we would package #12 for a higher pick. Trading for Varejao is pointless unless you get #4 in the same scenario.

    As much as I hate to admit it, that's a pretty specific piece of information. Let's just hope that Charlotte says **** Cleveland :grin:

    Of course I want #4...like I said, it doesnt make any sense to trade #12 straight up for Varejao...there is more to the trade than that.

    Then you're telling me a front court of Varejao and Camby would dominate the boards? Sounds good.

    Nope, Varejao will kill our capspace.

    I'm suggesting re-signing Camby to a cheap deal and keep cap flexibility for someone worthwhile, instead of using it on Varejao.

    I think there is a good chance Drummond falls as far as Detroit.

    Why are there so many pages debating his value? This only happens if rockets also get pick 4 or 2.

    Well, yes, it would be nice to have cap space to sign anyone we want...unfortunately, it takes two to tango. Im sure Morey will go with the best options on the table for us. If that means that Varejao is a Rocket, then you can be rest assured there was no option that was better.

    And I dont want Varejao on his own...I would take on that contract if it means we're also getting something else in return, such as a #4 pick. Varejao has a better contract than Scola...I'd happily take on Varejao and trade Scola.

    Varejao is under contract for this season and next...and its a team option the year after that. Scola's contract is much more brutal.

    Knew it. There was no way Morey wasn't going to at least target Bynum. It just makes so much sense.
