    I am not going to say whether I disagree or agree (but I do one of those strongly) but, even if performance wise you are correct. What do you think other GM's think? Do they care about Patterson/Morris more than Thomas Robinson?

    Remember how much the asking price is for potential alone.

    T-Rob is Derrick Favors before he got traded to the Jazz for Deron.

    We actually cleared a roster spot that could be used to snag Rip from the Bulls thus netting us a "reward" for taking on his salary. Also, Morris hasn't shown enough to be worth more than a 2nd rounder. Finally, Morey has a pretty good track record with drafting in the second round.

    per 36 mins he's 11 points/11 boards

    i have to believe, given his athleticism, he'll fit in well here...assuming he stays.

    he's 21 years old.

    Are these sources legit? The ones that say another trade is in the works?

    Considering our style suits his... AND our tempo promotes better stats, I wouldn't be surprised if his per36 with us becomes 15/13 or better

    Robinson could get 10-15 points every game just cleaning up those ugly shots that Asik tosses up. :grin:
