[ClutchFans] Rockets trade Lowry, stay focused on Howard

So all that want Dwight, what do you think happens at the trade deadline? The exact same thing Orlando is faced with. We up a lot young talent and future picks and all we will be left with is a trade for Lopez at a max deal. What dis y'all call him "garbage"?

 

Why are they talking like Dwight has been traded to the Nets and it's already done on 97.5? I was swearing in the car.

****ing b**** assholes.

 

Hoopsworld says the ATL is now trying to wiggle back into the Howard talks

Bynum won't sign an extension, they say we're on his list but an extension now is only 3 years where he'd want 5 which he can get for waiting (same as what Chris Paul is doing).

 

I still don't understand passing on PJ3 if this is truly Morey's mindset. If the focus is to acquire a big star or players that have potential to develop into that big star then why not take a risk on him? I guess Morey wasn't alone since his stock dropped drastically far but the guy would've AT LEAST brought some excitement to the franchise.

 

Clearly it was a medical scratch.

Heck, they brought him into Houston less than a week before the draft, they had to have not liked what they saw. They must have thought he would turn into Greg Oden or Brandon Roy or something. And if you seriously think that, then you cannot waste the draft pick, no matter how much you may 'like' the guy.

 

Yeah I get that but its at #18 and you got to take that risk over a Terrence Jones. Morey is obviously all about risks right now so he should have gone for it.

 

Reports suggested that PJ3 had issues with his knees...and evaluations suggest may 3-4 years before he develops chronic problems...That is something you want to stay far away from...

 

Terrence Jones is a good player.

You still got to risk it. We're not talking about using a top 5 pick on the guy. It would have been #18. Say he does reach his potential and then does a BRoy and breaks down after 4 years. I'd take 4 great years and a few All-Star appearances because maybe you finally have an inviting landing spot for a stud free agent before he breaks down. Low risk and maybe high reward.

 

So is Patrick Patterson. We need great, not just good.

 

Good Job Gilbert...the first smart thing you have done in a long time...Now watch MJ facilitate that trade...

 

I am even going to have to tune out Woj for a while. It seems that nobody knows what is happening.

 

Same thing happened last year with the Nuggets new GM and the Carmelo trade. Sometimes the fact that nobody really knows what in the world these guys are trying to do vibe can actually work in their favor. Very hard to read the situation and what their true thinking is.

 

Terrance Jones is better than Perry Jones III bottom line. PJIII is not aggressive enough and his game is flawed hyped up wait till the season starts.

 

perry jones just went down with injury already smh

 

So did Terrence Jones lol.

 

PJ3 would have been in top 10 without knee injury...
