    There it is, Morey playing chess again. I didn't think he would be willing to get ripped off just to get Rondo.

    So what if Morey can acquire Deng to replace Parsons and get Rondo as well.

    Rondo
    Harden
    Deng
    Jones
    Howard

    Hmmm to the trade machine!

    Are you guys thinking of rookie year parsons? Again I do not NOT want to give up parsons but he's not a great defender by any means. I don't consider melo a 2 way player but his defense isn't much worse than parsons right now

    You're right, it doesn't happen as often now as back then, but if we were to get Rondo, that would be my biggest concern, specifically during the playoffs, instead of the remaining regular season games.

    Exactly. Why would Morey trade CP, whos value is at an all time high for Rondo who's value is at an all-time low and coming off an ACL injury.

    Like he cares.

    I am guessing if Morey includes Parsons then he would try to trade Beverley or Brooks for corner 3 point specialist who's a decent defender (Garcia in the playoffs last year). The problem is neither make anything.

    Let's see who suits up for the R's tonight in LA. That will be our early indicator if nothing else is reported.

    Anyone have any ideas what cyberx means when he says "back pocket" in relation to the Rockets not willing to give up Parsons??

    Think of it like this, dwade is a pretty bad 3 point shoot (can't remember his exact numbers) and the heat never have troubles on the playoffs with teams doubling off him

    i'm convinced that any deal with Boston would have to be all about picks, or blue-chip prospects like TJones. As Boston is in full rebuilding mode, what on earth would they want with a year and a third of Asik and/or Lin? It'd have to be a 3-team deal that brings Boston back solid 1st round picks. I don't think we can move Lin or Asik for solid 1st round picks. THerefore, i can't imagine a deal going down which doesn't include Parsons.

    Will hold out hope though...
