Did we just trade 1/2 season of Brooks + Battier for Donatas + Flynn?

    First, Flynn contract = Miller contract. So salary isn't important. Which meant the trade boiled down to Morey giving up 1/2 a season or Brooks and Battier for his haul tonight.

    Talk about getting something out of nothing. :eek::eek:

    Morey makes up for his mistakes quickly.

    Don't forget Thabeet, Carroll, and Dragic.

    I put that as a judgement call, since they actually picked Morris over Leonard. The fact that the Spurs got Leonard a pick later kind of make me a bit queasy though.

    But getting Donatas, IMO, is purely working his butt off on the phones to get something out of his about-to-leave players.

    Miller and Flynn have more similarities than just the contracts. They're both useless to the Rockets as well.

    LOL

    So what would we get from them? Landry Fields? The Knicks will take anyone with a pulse at most positions.

    Wrong actually. We got dragic, PHX draft pick, Donatas, Flynn, -Miller, Thabeet for 1/2 season of Brooks and Battier who were probably going to leave anyway.

    And where the hell's CXBBY? He was talking about going 8 to draft Marcus Morris we got him 14. He should be orgasming in ecstacy right about now...
