    That's the scary part about it. Cause it's true so it might happen.

    If you think Ariza's shooting bad this year... Salmons ain't much better at 38%.

    I don't want to give up Budinger. We won't get enough back for what I perceive to be his future potential. That guy is going to be a star.

    I highly doubt they trade Budinger... he's hurt anyways so the Rockets can't trade him right now

    But Ariza is right now shooting at his career numbers....which suck.

    And Salmons is a career .44+% shooter......

    I would do this trade.

    Hey DD, what about this trade:

    Rockets acquire: Deng, Salmons, Miller
    Bulls acquire: Ariza, McGrady, Dorsey

    what's so scary about this trade?

    i just don't understand it.

    salmons has been extremely consistent over the past 4 years, but he is off to a crappy 1st half this year.

    btw...ariza is at his career 3pt% numbers.

    he is FAAAAAR below his overall fg% average.

    Are you sure about that? I don't know, so I'm asking you :) Budinger is likely to return to the court before T-Mac does, so it would seem like Budinger would still be a possibility to be included in a trade.

    I don't like this trade. It's just a trade to get rid of Tmac. No improvement in roster. Only Brad Miller will break into rotation. He is a veteran motion offense center but not effective as he was in Scramento.

    Wade? Bosh? CP3?

    ...not gonna happen

    I think you severely underrate John Salmons. I for one would be pleased to get Salmons back in a McGrady swap. Although I don't know if that would be sufficient to solve Rick's inexplicable love affair with Trevor Ariza...
