    I have this fantasy where we sign & trade for both LeBron and Bosh. I wonder if it would be possible to sign & trade Scola, Chuck Hayes, and Jordan Hill for Bosh, then trade Kevin Martin, Battier, and our lotto pick for a re-signed LeBron.

    PG: Brooks / Lowry
    SG: James / Taylor
    SF: Ariza / Budinger
    PF: Bosh / Jeffries
    C: Yao / Andersen

    That leaves you thin up front, but I figure you can get some good size for the MLE, like maybe Brad Miller or Jermaine O'Neal.

    My fantasies include women and require cleanup.

    Actually on another board that I frequent they do this very thing; a new forum reappears each off-season for off-season talk and rumor mongering.

    Hopefully Bosh to help in the middle and possibly Kyle Korver to add dept on the wings.

    Off-season Maneuvers 2010

    Trade #1
    Jermaine Taylor and 14th pick for a pick somewhere between 7th-10th, draft Greg Monroe, in addition purchase a second rd pick, and draft Lance Stephenson

    Trade #2
    Jordan Hill and Battier/Jeffries/ Hayes + NY Picks for Chris Bosh

    FA Signing:
    C Brendan Haywood
    Re-up, Kyle Lowry
    Re-up, Luis Scola

    2010/11 Roster
    Kyle Lowry* | Aaron Brooks
    Kevin Martin | Lance Stephenson
    Trevor Ariza | Chase Budinger
    Chris Bosh | Luis Scola | David Andersen
    Yao Ming | Brendan Haywood | Greg Monroe

    * Lowry starts for defensive purposes, and he would probably come cheaper if we offered him the starting spot as well

    This is way off topic but wouldnt it be nice if there was a designated hangout for people who were here like pre-2003? I think that would make some of the older posters quite happy.

    Oh and we should sign Haywood as long as he understands his backup role.

    Great idea, you should post this in the clutchnafs.net feedback sub-forum. I'll do it for you.

    Here's my speculative opinion: Scola and Bosh cannot exist on the same team together. If we get Bosh, Scola is officially gone.

    I seriously thought about posting this as an entirely new thread just because it's so silly but I suppose it may be appropriate here: "would the Rockets win it all next year if Hakeem Olajuwon came out of retirement to back up Yao?"

    there you have it.

    I did notice that "untraceable" posted something very similar... "sorry guys for the excessive threads!"
