    would be a great backup center. Morey is seriously building a championship team.

    Hmmm... I hadn't thought about that, you may be right. The Rockets should go after Dalembert, he would be a perfect backup to Howard, and the Bucks already have like 4 other quality centers/Power-forwards , so they might be willing to part with him.

    Pull the trigger morey! He's cheap, wants a ring and he's taking care of his body. Doing a lot of advanced things to adjust his training- advanced and personalized diet and procedures in Germany to help rejuvenate him

    Not a bad move at all. Get a defensive center in Jermaine O'Neal and then trade Asik to upgrade the four. Sure, O'Neal isn't as good as Asik, but is still good defensively. I'd rather upgrade the starting 4 and slightly downgrade the backup center position then keep Asik. Besides, Asik deserves to start. It would be unfair to bench him after having such a good season last year.

    Did anyone not notice his stats last season? Pretty impressive for the games he played in.

    Can we figure out a way to get Dragic along with O'Neal. ?

    If Asik is gone then lets send him to the suns for dragic....try to sell suns on a Asik/Gortat frontline.

    Come on home Dragic....this is where you have always belonged.

    Dragic>>>> Lin


    What?!!

    That is r****ded, Dragic costs 7.5 mil and is not better than Lin. Did you even watch the 3 matches the Rockets had against Phoenix? You sure as heck do not know squat about the Rockets if you think Dragic is an upgrade.

    Oh yeah, Lin would of course be moved and hopefully for a upgrade at the 4.

    Looks like Casspi, Jones and Monte will fight it out instead....

    Or to give some cap relief....

    Dragic is better than Lin.....I guess you missed the seasons with the Rox...

    He is a better shooter and passer, all other things being even, so yes DRAGIC IS BETTER.

    FOR THE LOVE OF LIN, BRING DRAGIC BACK.
