    Is it worth it for the Rockets to give up 2 firsts to proceed?

    We will get something very valuable for him.

    Given the posts here, the question should be what would Rockets GIVE to have someone take Lin.

    What the hell? If its going to cost 2 first to give up Lin then don't bother. His contract is up in 1 year anyway. Heck if we have to go up 1 first I wouldn't do it. Just wait for his contract to expire if we can't get Melo and go all during free agency after.

    It probably will be if they have someone else to sign lined up already.

    Lakers don't need a ball dominant PG when Kobe will be back next season.

    Finally, this thread proved Morey does have an account in CF.

    Im a houston rockets fan, thanks though. I just think lin needs to go and want to get value for him. Hard for me to realize Morey made a mistake on this one

    My guess is it will take Asik, a pick, cash, and something not so great back to trade him and that it will be done this summer.

    Yep, if you had the option to trade Lin and 2 first round picks for Carmelo Anthony, why wouldn't you do it? I could absolutely see that happening if he decided to come here (which is a longshot).

    In that scenario we might actually get a second round pick in return for Asik as well.
