    Wouldn't that just be the ultimate Morey move? Surprise everyone?

    I mean, the Portland game was exhibit A of how badly we need Asik. I don't think we can get something back that's worth more at this point.

    We also wouldn't have beat San Antonio without Asik's minutes in that game.

    There's a chance Asik could still be a Rocket after this week but not much chance he'll be here after Feb. 20th.

    Send Asik to the D leauge. He gets to start and gets his money while remaining on the Rockets. Everybody wins :D

    Only if asik begs us and grabs like 40 boards in the next 2 games and tells everybody how wrong he was, then we may keep him till the deadline

    After Asik gets traded, Clutchfans are going to wish we still had him. What we really need is defense and rebounding. Exactly what we are trading away. When we signed Dwight we all knew Asik would be traded, I just wish Smith or DMo could play a little bigger, then it wouldn't hurt so much losing Asik.

    When a player says he wants out, that's a one-way ticket.

    We wish we still had him now, the Omer we loved died when we signed Dwight.

    Gee, he didn't want to play for us the minute DH signed. He put it out there publicly. We bent backwards to start him in that BS TT. That didn't work. Instead be critical about himself, he demanded a trade. Wtf. What more do you want Morey and McHale to do? Ask him if he wants to stay here and compete hard.
