    I'll admit it, I really miss having Othella, sure we won that trade, we got Francis, but now, we neeed a power-forward!And I have a friend who lives in Voncouver, and he told me it doesn't look like Othella likes to be in Vancouver, I think we shouldn't waste any time and go for him to fill the void at our power-forward spot, and quick! Boy, Cato and Othella side-by-side, what a lineup!!

    Who would you trade to get Othella?

    How about the Rockets sign and trade Mack along with Walt for Othella? Or we could add Drew or Mobley to the mix and get the Grizzlies to throw in D. Scott.

    I'm not really sure I want to give up Cuttino or Drew at this point though.

    They have Shareef at the 3, and Mack isn't that great of a trade bait to them. Besides, you really can't expect to trade a player than expect to get him back (Stacey Augmon excluded of course). Othella is playing great, and to get him, you need to give people THEY need that are great.

    What?!!

    Othella Harrington is their best player [playin better than 'Reef right now]!!!! Nothing short of Mobley and that lotto pick could land him here. And BTW, he is very happy in Vancouver. He is the go-to-guy for the first time in his career.

    Othella is really good and plays "big" like Barkley does. If I had my choice, I would like a PF that is bigger than "O" but hopefully would have the same amount of heart and dedication as Othella.

    As far as trading players and getting them back. We traded Mack to them and got him back. We traded R. Rhodes to them and almost got him back. But how many times are the Rocks and Griz actually going to trade Mack back and forth?
