    I agree with you, but would probably also trade with Dallas and Spurs, at least they still have some stars.

    I would trade with Dallas.

    They still have Dirk and plenty of cap space opening up, which means they have a great chance to also get Deron Williams in the offseason.

    I wouldn't trade with Sacramento at this point... but I would love to have Cousins.

    lol funnay.
    Had mctalky been able to adjust and COACH, we would have beaten any of those rosters.

    We don't have a crap roster like many here like to believe. Just give me one power forward that can jump and grab boards and score some points, and i'll go to war against those intimidating clippers and the unstoppable grizzlies. =/

    Funny, but most of those lineups are a lot closer to winning a title now or in the near future than we are. We are playoff contenders, I want a title contender and you need a star or someone with potential to become one.

    Those who voted no to gsw roster, think about curry,bogut,lee,thompson,wright and another top pick. I could be wrong,but I think biendrens is on the last yr of his deal. I will take that roster too.

    Honestly I can't think of a roster I wouldn't trade for. Older teams like the Celtics and Spurs at least are legitimate playoff teams, younger teams like the Bobcats, Wizards, Kings, etc. at least have some legitimate talent that could turn into stars.

    We are stuck in a no man's land of purgatory and mediocrity.

    The Kings do have some talent, I agree.

    But the Wizards?? The Bobcats?? really? I don't know how either of those teams has much legitimate talent at all, let alone better talent than the Rockets. Sure, Kyrie Irving may become an ok player, but will he be better than either Lowry OR Dragic? I'm not so sure. Who else do those two teams have that could turn into stars?
