    I'm really not that interested in Millsap at the moment.

    I think he is a fine player, but I would like to see how Jones develops. Seems like a waste to bury him back in the bench..

    could be picking him up before the 19th to flip in another deal at the deadline, its going to be so many trades this year in the NBA

    I think Milsap is a fine asset to get back for Asik even if jones is doing well. That puts us in a great spot for next season's trade deadline. Maybe even for moving up in the draft.

    True. This is mostly more sources saying things in line with earlier reports.

    To me, the latest additional factor to the situation is the agent Arn Tellem. There is most likely something that Asik thinks Arn Tellem can do that his former agent, Andy Miller, cannot.

    Lin & Asik for Horford. Now that would be a story.

    So, this is just old news revisited? I still say he's going to Sixers. That Morey-Hinkie connection.

    Yeah, I was just joking around but I still would't be a fan of the trade becasue Lin and Asik are the two best players in the trade(imo). That first rounder would be nice though!

    Millsap is a jump shooter though.

    Rockets are better off with letting Jones develop

    Korver to the bench with Garcia, Brooks and Caspi would be one of the best benches in the league IMHO.

    Asik isn't happy and his value will continue to diminish. Get Milsap and now you have an asset you can flip later on if he doesn't work out.

    Atlanta says no!.I get the feeling we will see either a deal done with Philly or left field done for someone like Jeff Green.

    TJones is outta heeeeere!

    Just kidding. TJones is just going to the bench, 14 min/game, tops. He'll be the next to demand a trade.

    Terrance Jones has consistently sparked the offense within the first 4 minutes of every single game we have won lately. He is our starter until he loses it

    I can't think of a game we didn't win in which he didn't score at least 6 points within the first 6 minutes of play

    I want a back up center who can defend, rebound and make free throws. I was always nervous when teams went to hack-a-howard and ife brought Asik in and he is just as bad at hitting his free throws too.

    TJones deserves to start but just because he hasn't made a name for himself yet, people don't think he's good. This team doesn't need to trade for starting PF. Get a backup center and few draft picks and I'd be gravy.
