    I say we sell the franchise to Seattle and start up another one next season with the number one pick.

    Thomas Robinson for 31 and 33 is a good trade for us in my opinion

    Why is the preferred deal two 2nd rounders? That seems like a very low return.

    That would be fine with me. I wonder if DM is even feeling pressure to deal tonight? He might get a better deal by waiting until 7/1

    I understand your impatience......

    We just have to wait and see.

    I'm a little nervous myself

    Cleveland took Karasev at 19. That's likely what we'd want if we had a trade agreed to.

    Cavs 31st pick is worth more to us than any 1st rounder because of salary structure to free cap room.

    Mavs already got 2nd rounders for their 13th pick.

    Because we'd have the freedom with those picks to draft whoever we want (no cap holds). Trading for a first rounder comes with an asterisk for us, given the Dwight situation, because we'd be boxed into taking a very select few (stash candidates). Second round opens up the board.

    The cavs already selected a euro player on the rockets radar.

    I think dwight is definitely leaving la, and it is 90-10 houston-dallas.

    Ditto here. I'm at the draft party waiting with anticipation.

    "Hey Jason Kidd, just coming off playing for the Knicks last season, now you'll be coaching against them."

    It's still really weird to me...

    New here? The cat can literally turn any piece of information - no matter how negative - and spin it into a pro-rockets slant.
