    No, Teague is basically another version of Lin.

    Williams is a shooter and would play off of Harden better then Lin.

    If the alternative is Bass/Lee/1st, I agree. But I draw the line at a 1st. Both of Knicks' 2nd round picks, a Eurostash, and Asik is where I would put it at.

    Plus the Hawks would want more in return.

    Maybe one of DMo or Greg Smith.

    The rumored Celtics trade supposedly was rejected a week ago, and Morey just followed Milsap on twitter, so I guess Milsap for Asik is the rumored trade right now. There haven't been any reports of the Rockets and Hawks talking about a trade though.

    i kinda hope we keep lin, i felt maybe courtney lee could help off the bench, but jlin and tjones leading that second unit (assuming we get millsap)...

    PnR galore from the 2nd unit

    i hope it happens...

    Is that pic of Brewer on PM's twitter new, or has it been there for awhile?

    Looks like it's from an earlier date but I could be wrong.

    Asik is worth more than Millsap. Asik is elite on one end of the floor, he's younger, and he's on a slightly better contract.

    If we can get a 2015 1st, I think that's fair.

    You would think Atlanta would like having Asik considering you need a top defensive center to stand a chance against the Heat (not saying they are trying to contend but...#3 in the east-could build on it)

    Millsap has pretty much been a top 5 PF in the league based on advanced stats.

    He added a 3 pt shot between last season and this. So far this year, he's taking around 2 a game and hitting around 40%.

    He's the all-round guy you put next to Dwight and Harden.

    still though, I'd rather have the depth of Bass and Lee + a pick.

    Terrance Jones tries so hard on defense and still just sucks at times but I love his effort.

    The Rockets are practically undefeated when Jones puts up numbers similar to Nilsson's averages and Parsons/Harden aren't injured.

    When did Morey follow Howard after or before he signed him?

    So, what happens to TJones if we get Millsap? He gets moved to the bench?

    I would say adding Tjones to the bench would add to our depth. CLee and Bass does not fit with our long term plans.

    Our bench looks depleted with Lin injured.
