    IF true this is exactly what Houston can offer, only caveat is that Dragic commits to resign with the Rockets. Need Harden and DMo to talk to Dragic and calm his worries about heading back to H-Town.

    I'd give them Pelicans first, Shved, Pap, future first for Dragic and Plumlee.

    Get to keep our big man depth while also providing them with their asking price.

    Don´t give a damm about post numbers, you have been here since 2006 and have read some of the worst posts ever yet you felt like :rolleyes: because you thought I was actually posting like DM was reading :rolleyes:

    Please, there are more important things in this thread. I really believe Morey will steal IT for absolutely nothing. I would prefer overpaying a bit and get Lawson, but you can´t get mad at an improvement at PG.

    It may be an interesting night.

    See, obviously Morey is not offering what many here thought he might be offering, or a deal would be done already. I suspect we are offering a first (not NO) and/or NY 2nd and expirings only.

    Have to think that Ainge got in the Dragic talks really just to explore the price, and see where they stand.

    I really doubt that they would have interest in Lawson because Lawson is really more of a veteran ROLE PLAYER PG that is ready to win now. Dragic is a veteran too, but he best resembles a player you can build around with another star or two. Lawson is built to be a PG on a contender who makes his stars look better. You really can't have him as your best player.

    I dont doubt though that Ainge will still call and try to weasle his way in trade talks just because.... its a smart thing to do. But at the end of the day, Lawson alone would just stifle the development of Smart, Young, and Bradley. For the Rockets he makes perfect sense as the best PG they have had long term since Francis, and a perfect complement offensively to Harden and Howard.

    If we are title contenders for the next few years 1st round picks are close to useless anyway. Give them picks and keep DMo

    We still know pretty much what we knew 51 pages ago. The only big thing I can think of is that Dragic has not only burned his bridge with Phoenix, but he may have put a torch to the farms and possibly the entire village.

    What's funny is that they could have gotten so much more than that just two days ago.
