    Why can't we trade Taylor for Lewis? It solves both teams problems, well atleast the rockets. The sonics need a power forward, and the rockets need a rebounding small forward.

    The big problem is salary. They don't come close to matching because of things like base year compensation, etc. It has been explained that we would likely have to trade quite a large number of players (on both teams) to make it work.

    Besides, the Sonics suggested to Dallas that they would want Finley and Nash for Lewis, so what makes you think they'd take Mo Taylor?

    talk about beating a dead horse...




    ...i think i will.

    with radmanovic and mason comming along as sf's, and no real pf's im sure that this is a tempting deal for the sonics. dont forget that they wanted moT but he signed with us.

    the sonics also have about 4 centers. we may be able to work out a deal like tihs one:

    moT and collier

    for

    lewis and added center (booth, potapenko, james, drobnjac)

    man the soncis said they wanted finley and nash....man thats gotta be the the most outragous trade proposal i've ever heard. Those two could make any team a playoff team.

    i think lewis just want to gte more money, if he can't he will sing with houston, but as of now teams are throwing sign and trade deals to seattle, and that means more oney for lewis, his agent already know if all else fail then go to texas.
