    Clutch are you ready for this???????

    Rockets trade Picks #13 & #22 + Kelvin Cato to Golden State for Picks #5, #14 & #31
    (As they are going to loose Jackson this is a safe move for them).

    Orlando forwards Pick # 18 to Houston for shipment to Vancouver/Memphis to Detroit....
    Houston agrees to send this pick with Walt Williams also to Detroit for their #9 pick. This agreement satisfies Detroit's first round obligation to the Rockets.

    Boston exercises option for Denver's Pick.

    Rockets ship Pick #5 + Jason Collier to Boston for Picks #10 & #11.

    Rockets ship Picks #10 & #31 + Kenny Thomas to the Clippers for Pick #2.

    Rockets ship Pick #11 and excuse two (2) second round picks owed to Chicago for Pick #4.

    Rockets own Picks #2, #4, # 9 & #14.

    Rockets use all Picks.

    If available depending on draft 1 center, 1 SF/PF, 2 SF

    Rockets could end up with Eddy Curry, Kwame Brown, Shane Battier & Richard Jefferson.

    The trades would provide cap room to cover draft salaries. Cap space available for Webber, Taylor and Olajuwon.


    Rockets roster:

    Center - Olajuwon, Curry
    PF - Webber, Taylor
    SF - Battier,Brown, Bullard
    SG - Mobley,Jefferson
    PG - Francis, Norris
    + 1(this should be a SG as we have more than fixed our weakness at SF).

    Yes, this is clearly insane, but we have seen stranger things in this league.

    Thoughts??????

    I'm out like California's electricity......

    dude, just skip to the chase and trade cato, walt, and kt for picks one, two, and three in the draft. Yeah, that's the ticket....

    how about trading the 13th, 18th (if we get it), and 22nd to vancouver for the 6th pick. they are going to lose that pick if we don't give 'em #18, so the 13th pick is good compensation.

    Crack is Bad....

    No way we could screw that many teams in one year. Stern would probably fine us.

    Don't smoke yellow dope. I only hope were lucky enough to at least get jefferson. This draft is so full of young guys...who knows where any of these guys are gonna go.

    I'm expecting a trade with someone for draft picks either moving up or down. When I mean down I mean to the 2nd round. Houston has always done well in the 2nd round(I look for Houston to go after a team in the 2nd round very early in the draft like Chicago,whos the 1st pick in the 2nd round). Not to say we won't use any of those 1st rd picks but I don't expect to use more than one...I think that guy will be a senior(Bradley, Haywood, Johnson). I could see us taking some players off Chicago's hands while they take some of our veterans like Williams, Cato possibly and a 1st rd pick(#23)(for maybe a big G/SF Artest, Fizer and a 2nd rd pick). Just an idea, no truth to this...just brainstorming...Reason being they would have a shot-blocker in Cato, a pure shooter in Walt and they could still get Jason Richardson and maybe some one else in the late st rd. Where we could still get some one at the #13 spot a (Haywood, Bradley) and a 2nd rd. pick(cheaper pick...).
