    I am not kidding.

    Houston sends Yao, Mo Taylor, Moochie and Eddie Griffin (!) to the Nets in exchange of KMart, L. Harris, and Mourning.

    Houston solves its problem at PF position and Cato and Mourning can coplay the center position.

    Nets gets a dominant center who should prosper by playing alongside Jason Kidd.

    Nets will be perennial contender for the big prize. Houston should also be a force in the playoff. SF will remain the man of the team with KMart a solid 2rd option. Both the Nets and the Rockets will have a happy locker room.

    Trade accepted.

    That will happen in 3 years. Yao will opt out to either the Nets or Lakers.

    Unless JVG gets it and takes action to insist upon it. Then Yao Ming will be the Rockets Center and Focus.

    About Shaq, he'll probably be retiring in 3-4 years.

    Wow, could you think of a trade more lopsided? Mo is a better scoring option than kmart for crying out loud. Zo is on his last legs too.

    Well, that would guarantee the Rockets of the lottery. This is one of the worst trade proposals ever on this board and that's saying a lot.

    Well, the benefit to trading Yao would be that there would no more Yao only fans to haggle with.

    Hmmmm. Tempting. :p

    Yeah, but the Nets don't really have a very active fan BBS so you probably wouldn't have anyplace to go.

    I don't really mind Yao-only fans, if this is ever a proper label. I'm just pissed about stupid Yao-only fans.

    I'd say that this place is very active.


    Even if Yao did leave Houston after his rookie contract, why would he go to the minor league?

    Trade three first round draft picks for Eddie Griffin. Oops we already did that. :) Sorry, that was too easy.
