    QUESTION: If we did a 2 for 1 trade and give up Bonzi and Sura, wouldn;t it also open up room for Francis??

    I'd only trade Bonzi if only we could get any of these of my favrite Pistons --> Billups, Sheed or Mcdyess (of cours CD and Morey should be creative to package any deals...hmm...bye bye Rafer if that happens ;) )

    Trade high, not low. Bonzi's value is low right now, let him at least increase it. I would hold off on this trade.

    Gee, you think these should all be combined? And if Rox were to consider either of DA's 'scenarios' then management should be 'Deleted'!

    This will be another James for Alston trade if it goes thru.

    I dont care if Wells ends up a bust and never plays, but you don't trade a high potential player for nothing :mad:

    Ideally, we could trade Bonzi or package him with Sura's contract and get a PG from somewhere.

    I would do it for Jason Maxiell and Carlos Delfino in a heartbeat. It works money wise. Helps both teams in my opinon.

    We are going to lose Wells at the end of the year any way. Right???

    For years McDyess was been haunted with injuries and i almost lost count the number of times he had his knees was surgically repaired. :rolleyes: What, 4 or 5 times? No thanks. But Mohammed will probably got JVG's attention. His got "D and O" combine. :cool:

    why won't he be back? because teams will be knocking down his door to sign him? he won't get more on the open market by opting out if he doesn't get in shape.

    BAD TRADE! BAD TRADE! Bonzi is a Spurs-killer! Why would you trade him? The guy just saw John Patterson, he should be back within 2 days. He could play in the Denver game!

    You want the Rockets to win a championship this year. Right??? If so, say NO to trading Bonzi.

    Did he say Rockets want to trade Wells or just Detroit wants him? It's different.

    i wouldnt trade bonzi he hasnt really seen the floor with tmac and yao just yet. you dont know what you have until you lose it. bonzi should be ready to play again soon so i say keep him. he has shown that he is a nightmare for the spurs and if you remember he was part of that portland team, an important part and almost came back from 3-0 to be the mavs a few years back.

    he has a knack for reboudning which is a huge for this team in the backcourt and is our 2nd best post up option when yao is not playing. he can be the third playmaker for this team during stretches when yao and tracy are both out

    you dont try to trade him now, i would say wait a bit closer to the deadline (isnt it like mid feb?) to decide
