    What about if the rockets traded Kt and Glenn Rice for a Darius Miles(Doubtfull) or Jumaine Jones and a second rounder. I think these two would be a perfect fit for our "need" at sf. With the second rounder, we could get a big bulky body. I personally like Kristofferson out of Oregon with a late second rounder, but not an early one.

    We won't be able to get Miles especially if the best we can offer is Rice and KT,Jumaine Jones is an athletic player who has to improve a lot before he can become a starting 3.

    Francis and Mobley could help Jumaine on his low post and backdoor game.:D (Pun Intended)

    It would be hard to try and get cleveland to give up JuJu, but i think a kenny thomas and tierre brown or oscar torres would persuade them enough, but i would rather us get Rashard lewis or odom which are both better than jones i think. The Clips won't trade miles just because he is a huge part of tesm chemistry and a fan fave.

    We always need a 3 pt shooter at SF, so neither would fit on our team.

    What a joke? J Jones cannot hold Kenny's jock strap so that is not desirable and we would have to give up more than KT and Rice to get Darius. Mainly because other teams would not take on Rice's inflated salary. However, I would bet that Rice would be an excellent pawn at the end of the 2003 season, when he will be in the last year of his contract. Kenny and Rice could bring a kings ransom at the end of next year.

    How about KT for Turkoglu. Salary wise would work in this case. It's a win-win situation for both ball clubs. Rockets would get a young player on the rise that can do multiple things on the floor. The Kings would get get some much needed inside presence, which will come handy when it's comes to playoffs.

    or Turkalu for kt

    Yep, but they really like Turkey Glue so they might just have to settle for the inside presence provided by Chris Webber.

    Sac could get more for Turkoglu. He is very comparable to Peja, at the same age.

    Sac needs more size and bulk, KT does not provide that. They basically need a goon to pound with Shaq. KT is the last PF in the league who Sac would be looking for.

    Moreover, Hedo averages about the same rebounds/min as KT does.

    Davis could be the next T-Mac the day he gets some ball handling skills.

    Ricky Davis will be the next T-Mac when he changes his name to Tricky MacDavis.

    How about another wacky trade, that has no chance in h*ll of happening? :D

    Houston sends T-Mo/KT/Taylor to Washington.
    Houston sends Francis/Collier to Chicago.
    Houston sends Moochie/Cato to the Clippers.

    Washington sends Jahidi/Kwame to Houston.

    Chicago sends Curry to Houston.
    Chicago sends Crawford to Cleveland.

    Clippers send Odom/Dooling to Houston.
    Clippers send Kandi to Cleveland.

    Cleveland sends Miller/Davis/Skinner/Diop to Houston.

    Houston, Washington, Chicago, & Cleveland each send a future #1 pick to the Clippers.

    This would give us a new team of:

    C: Jahidi/Curry/Diop
    PF: Griffin/Kwame/Skinner
    SF: Odom/Davis
    SG: Mobley/Torres
    PG: Miller/Dooling

    IR: Brown/Rice

    Who needs draft picks when I start wheeling & dealing?:D Oh yeah,.......

    Trade Accepted
