Does trade work for you? Houston trades: PF Maurice Taylor (8.4 ppg, 3.5 rpg, 1.0 apg in 20.6 minutes) C Kelvin Cato (4.5 ppg, 5.9 rpg, 0.3 apg in 17.1 minutes) Houston receives: PF Christian Laettner (8.3 ppg, 6.6 rpg, 3.1 apg in 29.2 minutes) C Jahidi White (4.2 ppg, 4.6 rpg, 0.1 apg in 14.4 minutes) PF Kwame Brown (7.4 ppg, 5.3 rpg, 0.7 apg in 22.2 minutes) Change in team outlook: +7.0 ppg, +7.1 rpg, and +2.6 apg. Washington trades: PF Christian Laettner (8.3 ppg, 6.6 rpg, 3.1 apg in 29.2 minutes) C Jahidi White (4.2 ppg, 4.6 rpg, 0.1 apg in 14.4 minutes) PF Kwame Brown (7.4 ppg, 5.3 rpg, 0.7 apg in 22.2 minutes) Washington receives: PF Maurice Taylor (8.4 ppg, 3.5 rpg, 1.0 apg in 67 games) C Kelvin Cato (4.5 ppg, 5.9 rpg, 0.3 apg in 73 games) Change in team outlook: -7.0 ppg, -7.1 rpg, and -2.6 apg. TRADE ACCEPTED I like the fact that this move would give up more cap space. We get a vet. in Laettner . the "P" word in Brown and a servicable center reserve in Jahidi. Go Big, Think Big , Be Big
With Kwame and Griffin at the PF spot, we would be abused by every single team in the west. Now maybe if Kwame had shown some improvement over the years, I might consider Kwame and Griffin starting at the Sf and Pf spots.
Back away from realgm tradechecker. Do it slowly. Put your hands on top of your head, lace your fingers together....no! Keep your eyes off the keyboard! Now, we're gonna take you to rehab, it's gonna be tough, but you can do it! We'll just take some money out of the Clutch City tip jar to pay for your rehab.... What? There's no money? Son, you're on your own. Off to Ben Taub you go.
Id actually do it. MO sucks. Basically its cato straight up for brown. Humm,you guys actually think cato is better than the #1 overall pick .Funny. You also forget cato was a injured most of the time his first 3 years here. And,thats he is 8 years older than brown. And,who has maxed out his ability and has butter fingers and cant play pf. And,who shouldnt be getting paid 7 mil to play 10 minutes a game soon. Just watch. Oh,and brown did improve the last half of last year unlike eddie. Just watch. I predict everyone here will begg for mo and grif to be traded while brown improves . Your window is closing to improve. No team is going to want griffin next summer after another lazy season.He lacks skills that brown has that you just cant teach like ball handling.
Y'all are some negative fools. I would love a more drastic change to this team. I want to do more than just make the playoff. I want other teams to dread playing the the Rockets. This current mix of players are too soft & eazy going. I need to see some of this on this on the court. Trades : It's a business ! Don't take it so personal !
Jahidi White, Christy Laettner and Kwame Brown don't exactly remind me of on the court. lol If you are in the business of making proposals, quit now, before you go bankrupt.
Read some of the trade ideas of posters like Hottoddie and get a clue. His aren't always up my alley, but they always work and they are almost always interesting and usually improve the Rocks. You, sir, are the fool here. Relax and take a valium or something. Go see a movie. Make out with your girlfriend. But please spare us the dramatics. It's Friday night. Time for fun.
Nothing personal but the Rockets management is paying JVG about $4.5m/year to make the decisons about who's too soft to play his style of defense. An aspect of the game which is one of his coaching trademarks. The little workoholic has watched every minute of the Rox 82 games from last season and has decided to stand pat. Would it be too much to ask (given that a JVG Rox team has yet to play even a single minute of pre-season) that maybe you at least wait until around the Feb. trade deadline before you express your trade desires further? Especially in light of the fact that you are not getting much agreement with your proposals.
