    is Greg Smith a lockdown defender? :p

    I like Mbah a Moute, I'm not sure what's his trade value. I don't think he's cheap, like, I don't think you'd get him for Patterson or Morris and spare parts, there'd have to be something bigger.

    Well, looks like my wish for Demarcus cousins is now a potential opportunity, but I am not sure I want him coming on the team and ruining the chemistry now.....

    We're playing so well, and the team is settled and happy. Cousins could really f things up.

    I am not sure Machale can handle Cousins. Maybe Pop or Phil.....

    You're missing the fact that john wall doesn't have the willingness to pass like Lin.

    We got enough scoring prowess from Harden, parsons and Lin

    Best I could think of to defend the PF spot.:grin:

    He did do a pretty good job defending Dwight that one time Dwight was really getting the better of Omer.

    I like that!! Things is, he had a really bad injury, don't know what he would look like now......as in how much athleticism he has lost...

    Whatever the rockets do they should not trade harden, Lin, asik and maybe Smith /Jones..... everyone other player should be used to upgrade the pf spot.....

    Cousins
    Kanter
    Milsap
    Aldridge


    Any will do.....

    I still see jsmoov comin to htown because of 1) hes young 2) hes athletic 3) hes star material 4) he can RUN 5) "thinks" he can space the floor 6) good at PnR 7) and definatly not least he can DEFEND...

    I am not all so high on him but he seems to fit...

    Ppat/morris/aldrich/cook/douglas for smoov/harris/fodder

    I tried a three team trade that worked and I think it makes sense for the teams involved...

    Houston trades:

    Patterson
    Morris
    Douglas
    Cook
    Aldrich

    Houston receives:

    Love
    Brooks
    Honeycut

    Sacramento trades:

    Cousins
    Honeycutt
    Brooks

    Receives:

    Peckovic
    Douglas
    Morris
    Aldrich

    Minesotta trades:

    Love
    Peckovic


    Minny receives:

    Cousins
    Patterson
    Cook


    Throw in some picks to make everybody happy.

    Soon we'll have a 30 team trade where Houston gets LeBron for Delfino.

    I don't mean to disrespect you or anything, but do you only posting in the trade ideas thread? Just curious

    Any trade with Love is going to be a very expensive proposition for the Rockets...we will loose a player like Parsons...

    This is true, I think the only way we could trade for him would be to go after Cousins and hope he plays well to end the season and then trade Cousins for Love based off of potential, and havent their been rumblings that Love hasn't been happy in Minnesota?

    Also doesn't love have an opt out clause for after next season, we could just tread water and develop more and go after him after the 2014 season, after which he will hopefully opt out. All super wishful thinking though, and Im not sure what we would need to give up to get Cousins.

    mostly a wet dream...but Cousins to Minny, and Love to Houston, with Sacramento getting whom ever they want from Houston not named Harden, Lin or Asik...

    No, but I'm not a Rockets fan, so i end up posting mostly outside of the GARM. Trade ideas are interesting, they involve other teams. But I skip most of the GARM threads, like highlights threads or Lin threads, etc.
