    Won't work. Paul demands ball 100% of the time. Harden needs ball too.

    Amnesty has been used for Scola, Jeremy is a serviceable pg, tat can easily be traded to in this league.

    Lure Chris Paul here. I really think we could get him.

    Rent KG for a year. PF problems solved.

    Championship time.

    Harden was able to play with Westbrook AND Durant, two ball dominant guards, he can play with Chris Paul who passes much more.

    This. As much as people don't like Dwight, he is a huge difference maker and put our team in the next level. We need him. Everyone else on our team except Harden is expendable.

    Although I would like to see a core of Harden/Dwight/Parsons

    Here's what we should do...

    Get rid of Jeremy Lin. Never have I hated a player as much since Rafer Alston wore a Rockets jersey.

    Chris Paul would be the best single acquisition of anyone, but in full disclosure I would then begin to hate the Rockets a little bit if we did that.

    We would instantly become the crotch-punchingest team in the NBA, and I wouldn't forgive these Rockets for resorting to the dirtiest on-court player just to try to get ahead.

    Unless Al Jeff makes a complete change in character like Z-bo, I hope he stays away from our team. He might get you points but he is so inefficient and is probably worse than Harden on defense.

    If we got Chris Paul and Paul Millsap I'd be ecstatic.

    He is a Lakers fan, so that's why he's suggesting that the Rockets need someone overrated who's going to command too much money.

    I disagree. We want rings and CP3 + Harden is fools gold. He's a great PG, but we need a big man that can get easy points consistently in the paint if we want to win a title.

    Look at the clippers - far more talented than our squad and they got trounced by Memphis who has arguably the best front court in the Nba (Gasol/Zbo). Clippers game plan is the same at the end of games as ours: put the ball in CP3 (Harden's in our case) and let them do something. Not a winning formula in playoffs.

    We need Hakeem 2.0....

    You offer David West a 3 year deal with 14 million each of the first 2 years and a team option the 3rd year for whatever. Sure Indiana wants to keep him, but I cannot seem them matching that given that franchise has been bleeding money for awhile, and hope they cannot unload Granger on some other team.

    David West on this Rockets team would be Money.
