    Ace you are crazy!
    I read your <a href="http://www.clutchtown.com"><I/>Garnet a Rocket?[/i]</A> column and I'm ready to kick your ass. Trade Mobley and Dream or trade Francis and Dream for Garnett is crazy. You must be up late because to ever think about trading Mobley or Francis there's something wrong.

    The only person in the NBA that you couldn't get with Garnett would be Shaq. Mayb Duncan, too. But both of those are iffy, too.

    If you're saying we shouldn't trade Cat or Francis for Garnett, then you're thinking with your heart. I'd trade Francis for Garnett straight up. I doubt Minnesota would, though.

    Speaking as a basketball fan :

    Yup. In a heartbeat. Wouldn't even think twice about it.

    Speaking as a Rocket fan :

    I'd still do it.

    Um, there's one thing I don't get with this. These players have been with us for a total of 4 years, and you refuse to trade them. However, you don't mention Hakeem Olajuwon?

    FrancisFan, you too. I think that you should mention Hakeem's name first. In fact, it's the only name that should be mentioned in the first place, which is why I said that Dream had to agree with the trade. The recent developments have sure made the trade more acceptable in my eyes.

    Anyway, I admire your loyalty for both these players, but I have to admit that I haven't grown to be attached to them that much just yet. I would give both up in a second under the proposed scenarios.

    DoD,

    Did you read the column? There, I post several reasons as to why the trade is plausible and why Garnett would be traded in the first place. An interesting read about Garnett's situation can be found at NBATalk.com.

    To conclude, I am glad some people read the stuff! Even if it does make them want to kick my ass!

    Not me. I'm absolutely loyal to current Rockets players. I would never trade Michael Dickerson and Othella Harrington for Steve Francis.

    I wouldn't trade Hakeem Olajuwon either. After all those years with the Rockets he should chose when he goes out and with what team. The only reason the Rockets should trade him is if he wants to be traded.

    im loyal to rockets players, but if its cat/shandon for KG i'd do it in second. if it was franchise for KG i'd do it in about 30 seconds lol. KG is right now one of the best players in the NBA. but i wouldnt trade stevie for shaq, i prefer keeping my marquee players in at the end of games. The only deal minne would pull a trigger on would be something like cato, franchise, cat, anderson, dream(salaries) for KG, wally, peeler, avery. which i definitely would not do. That is why in video games i usually dont pick rockets because i wont ever want to trade them.

    When I said I would never trade them it wasn't my just loyalty to the teams players, I like them as individuals and want them on Houston. That is partially the same reason I've always stated to keep KT, the Wizard and the Catomic Bomb. I also agree with many of you that Hakeem should not be traded.

    Sweet, physical violence against someone who disagrees with us. Can I try to kick BrianKagy's ass now (where the hell is he anyway?).
