Hey guys, Something neesd to be done. We are playing pretty tough "D" but we cannot put the ball in the hole. Therefore a suggestion: Houston trades: PF Eddie Griffin ( ppg, rpg, apg in minutes) C Kelvin Cato (5.8 ppg, 9.1 rpg, 0.7 apg in 29.3 minutes) SG Cuttino Mobley (15.8 ppg, 4.3 rpg, 2.9 apg in 40.2 minutes) PG Moochie Norris (2.9 ppg, 1.1 rpg, 2.3 apg in 14.9 minutes) Houston receives: PG Jeff McInnis (11.7 ppg, 2.0 rpg, 4.7 apg in 29.3 minutes) SG Bonzi Wells (12.2 ppg, 4.7 rpg, 2.7 apg in 31.1 minutes) SF Rasheed Wallace (16.4 ppg, 7.4 rpg, 3.2 apg in 39.5 minutes) Change in team outlook: +15.8 ppg, -0.4 rpg, and +4.7 apg. Would Portland do it, maybe to get rid of 2 problem childs. Would Houston do it, I hope so, yes we get 2 problems childs, but they are 2 problem childs that can put the ball in the hoop, plus McInnis at 6" 4' PG can actually ass the ball. I say we would Thoughts or ideas
Portland won't trade Bonzi and Rasheed. They will just not be resigned after the season is over. Blazers management has gotten an ultimatum from Paul Allen to reduce the payroll.
Haha..Portland would be screwed if they did that.. I would do it because Wallace's contract expires anyways and I think he would be good with the Rockets. Wells is a good player..but I don't like him as a person that much. This trade won't happen.
Wallace and Wells can both pass the ball though, coming to a new team might just be the tonic for them. Mobley wont pass the ball, and Cato whilst big and a presence on "D" is a liability on Offense. His man can double on Ming as Cato is no threat. We need a PF, and not Taylor
Mobley averages 1.5 fewer assists from the SG spot than Steve does from the PG spot. Stop living in the past when Cat was a ballhog.
Don't get me wrong, but Portland's ex-GM is a great talent evaluator. Look at his picks: Sabonis, Bonzi Well, Q. Woods, Randolph, J. O'neal. Portland has never missed playoffs since when? It's a long time. Anyway, I would do that trade if we can bring Wallace. I think Wallace is a good kid. He just had bad influence. Wells is bad, but it is not that difficult to replace a SG.
