The "Random Rocket Trade Proposals" Thread - 2007 Offseason

How about Herrmann? We were talkin' about him

 

a swap of Morrison for Sura's expiring would work straight up. the bobcats would basically be saying theyve given up on him if this were to go through.

 

1. TMax for Hinrich and Ben Wallace (I've always considered him a PF). I htink the salaries match up, if not toss in a filler or something.

2. Battier for Lewis in S&T

 

I know the salaries match and everything but...
Isn't Morrison's contract expiring too? Surely they could get more value for Morrison's expiring then a HIGHER expiring contract

 

Btw, since I mentioned the Bobcats, I had a deeper look into their current contract situation and roster and they could very well be a much stronger team next year...

It seems they ve been building very slowly and a lot of their moves worked out for them. And with some contracts expiring they could very well end up 20mill under cap in a year with a few very key FAs ....

 

Morrison's contract is not expiring. He signed a rookie contract last year, which was his first in the NBA. He was also a high lottery pick at that, and while he didn't live up to expectations, didn't fail miserably. The Bobcats have plenty of cap space and would probably keep a cheap talent like Morrison, who can still improve, than trade him for of what they already have, more cap space.

Just a thought but you guys dont see Adelman picking his old players up like Van Gundy did? Webber? Barnes? trade for Artest? Bibby?

Another thought was Mo Williams/ Ruben Patterson FA pickups.

 

Battier + Alston for Elton Brand

 

We dont need another All Star but a solid forward who can score around 15ppg an grab about 10rpg. Moreover who would be our Play when Rafer is gone?

I honestly dont think that the Sonics are going to even consider trading Lewis für Battier. Shane is a SF, clearly the position they dont need after having Gelabale and picking up Durant.
Thay have Allen and his backup Wilkins. They habe Ridnour and his backup Watson and they have Wilcox and his backup Collison. What they really need is a center, since Swift has been injured all year long and Sene and Petro are cleary not ready to start.

We could give the Deke

 

I agree. We don't need All Star we just need a solid rebounder, blocker and scorer

 

I just said we dont need an all star PF, but what about this trade:

Portland doesnt need Zach that much anymore since they will concentrate on Oden to become their no1 low post scorer.
Portland:
Oden, LaFrentz, Pryzibilla
Aldridge, Howard
Battier, Udoka, Miles
Webber, Head, Jones
Roy, Dickau

Houston:
Yao, Deke
Randolph, Hayes
McGrady, Snyder
Wells, Spanoulis, Pick #26
Jack, Alston

Sounds good to me.

 

I hate Randolph but he's pretty god, but he's probably poor All Star...

 

You're obviously right...My confusion arose from the fact that espn's NBA Trade Machine has the yrs remaining wrong....

 

Maybe the Clips will be in the same high your in and say yes to this. We can only hope.

 

You could start taking ring sizes if that actually happened........

 

Ok flame away.

Successful Scenario
Due to Houston and Portland being over the cap, the 25% trade rule is invoked. Houston and Portland had to be no more than 125% plus $100,000 of the salary given out for the trade to be accepted, which did happen here. This trade satisfies the provisions of the Collective Bargaining Agreement.

 

no way portland will do that

Do y'all think Austin Croshere is worth picking up as a Free Agent?

Also, Do you think there is anyway we could sign Anderson Varejao with the MLE?

 

There is no way thay give up Oden, Randolph and Roy man!!!!!!
They will not trade their pick, not even for Kobe!

Croshere is pretty much the same like Juwan, thats why we dont need him.
Varejao is solid young player but I would never give up the MLE for a center, we rather look for the 1 or 4.
