    Hopefully Deron William.

    I'd be interested in bringing TRob back. He isn't very good at many things, but is at least an active body who rebounds the ball well and runs the court. Better than Dorsey, I'd say.

    But my guess is that, if bought out, Robinson is going to Phoenix. He is practically the third Morris Twin.

    I know some people will hate me for bringing this up, but it sure seems like there's been growing acrimony of late between Byron Scott and Jeremy Lin. Given an expiring deal, LA might be open to it.

    Lin cannot join the Rockets until July under the rules because he was traded by HOU this July, which is within the 2014-15 season.

    How much do we have left to offer a bought out player? Anything more than the minimum?

    I have never wanted a Deron Williams buyout so much in my life.

    Perkins would be nice as well, especially since Harden wants him.

    If we could get those two, I would feel so much better going into the playoffs.

    Why has Marshall not stuck with a team? I know he's done this year, but hasn't he played well enough to stick around? Hopefully he sits out the year completely and we can get a look at him this summer.

    Jeremy Lin? Kendrick Perkins?

    The trade deadline has fried Clutchfans. Time for everyone to go outside and get some fresh air.

    He still counts to the floor if waived (heck amnestied players still count for that)

    We can't pick up Jeremy even if he is waived because we traded him this year.

    Cyberx said that Harden asked management to pick up Perkins. So I trust what Harden wants, he's our MVP.

    Don't the Rockets have enough backup PGs already?
