Which centerpiece of a trade for McGrady would you prefer? Pick one. You can flesh out the details of a consumated trade or just tell why you centerpiece selection is the best fit for the Rockets. I forgot the OTHER option, so you'll just have to wing it in your reply here.
ONLY ONE on the list would be Luol Deng or a pick that is in top5. Redd, brand, arenas are good, however i don't see the point of doing that
I considered one of those guys as a centerpiece candidate, but the way Detroit is rolling I figured they wouldn't want to mess anything up.
I want to keep Shane too, but no way Detroit bites on a Tmac/MJ or Bonzi for both Rip and Prince, who is having a breakout year. But if they do, man, we could be something special by next year.
How about no trade? I still remember those trade Yao threads, trade Alston threads. No It's Tmac's turn. Rockets fans are just unbelievable.
Imagine a lineup of this: PG - Alston/Brooks/Francis SG - Rip/Head/ (MJ or Bonzi) SF - Prince/Battier PF - Hayes/Scola C - Yao/Deke/Scola Very solid both offensively and defensively. And Rip gives us that pure shooter that be great in Adelman's system.
And even if we had to do a Tmac AND Shane for Rip/Prince: Alston/Brooks/Francis Rip/Head/Francis Prince/Bonzi/ Hayes/Scola Yao/Deke/Scola Still really solid.
I would not trade TMac for anybody on that list. The fact is TMac is a very talented player, to get equal or slightly less value involve a trade w/ TMac is almost impossible. You guys just have to be patient and wait for TMac to come back. I say let's wait and see how the team is going to playing w/ TMac back before we even thinking about a unrealistic situation.
after watching the Boston vs rockets game, i felt that we need a guy like Pierce who can shoot as well as attack the ring... ohhh wait... isnt our tmac a guy like that? tmac of course will make us better if we dont change the way we are playing now when he's back..
