    I'm italian for fisrt and sorry for my speaking.

    The right move for now, i think that is to trade Mobley for Tinsley and move Steve as a pure G.

    We'll have this roster:

    C Yao/Cato
    AG Cato/Taylor/Spoon
    AP JJ/Padgett/Nachbar
    G Francis/Piatkowski
    PM Tinsley/Jackson/Wilks

    I think that is an improved team and Yao could have many ball possessions to put in 20+ points at night.

    you are not the first person to think of this deal, (but you are new so i won't hold it against you). so some people like the idea. but i do not. Tinsley is a nice point guard. but not worth Mobley. the biggest problem with tinsley is that he can't shoot. so his denfender can always help the person who is gaurding Yao. and yao is having problems with fast players double teaming him. so i woudn't do this trade

    This Workes :

    Houston trades: SG Cuttino Mobley (15.3 ppg, 4.3 rpg, 3.2 apg in 39.5 minutes)
    SF Bostjan Nachbar (3.1 ppg, 1.3 rpg, 0.6 apg in 11.1 minutes)
    Houston receives: PF Al Harrington (13.1 ppg, 6.7 rpg, 1.8 apg in 30.9 minutes)
    PG Jamaal Tinsley (6.9 ppg, 2.6 rpg, 4.9 apg in 24.6 minutes)
    Change in team outlook: +1.6 ppg, +3.7 rpg, and +2.9 apg.

    Indiana trades: PF Al Harrington (13.1 ppg, 6.7 rpg, 1.8 apg in 30.9 minutes)
    PG Jamaal Tinsley (6.9 ppg, 2.6 rpg, 4.9 apg in 24.6 minutes)
    Indiana receives: SG Cuttino Mobley (15.3 ppg, 4.3 rpg, 3.2 apg in 45 games)
    SF Bostjan Nachbar (3.1 ppg, 1.3 rpg, 0.6 apg in 31 games)
    Change in team outlook: -1.6 ppg, -3.7 rpg, and -2.9 apg.

    The problem with moving Steve to shooting guard is that he can't guard or shoot.

    I love how everyone in the NBA is desperate to make trades that only work for us.

    It's kind of a pipe dream...
    But I actually feels that it's a good trade for both teams.
    Both Harrington and Tinsley have been or are on the block, Harrington is dispensable because he's a back-up behind Jermaine and Ron-ron. And Tinsley was definetly on the block earlier this year. Cat can be a great replacement for old Reggie. And Nachbar can fill the SF back-up role.

    Yeah, Steve just put up a 13 assist, 3 for 17 shooting game, and somebody says move him to SG.

    Steve got enough shots that if he would have just hit a few of them he could have had like 18 points, 13 assists, and 5 boards. Now if he starts hitting some shots, look out. The stat line will be unbelievable. Who would want to move him to SG then?

    Tinsley can't shoot the 3.

    We already have a problem with not having enough players with good 3 pt range.

    And, actually, Cat has been playing well.

    We would be, I think, far and away the smallest backcourt in the NBA.

    Harrington - Cat could happen. Might even happen. Adding Boki/Tinsley can not.

    If Stevie were moved, I'd almost expect Cat to go to Philly in a Snow deal.
