    Is this what we want, or what we think could reasonably happen?

    Posey and Collier are gone. We will keep Tmo for cheap.

    Not really what we want but is likely to happen?

    I know Cutino would be a likely answer to who we don't want after the summer....Not necessarily my opinion but the opinion of others on the board. I just don't see it happening without a replacement at the two who can score.

    Clutch will be so disappointed you did not add Cuttino Mobley onto your poll list!

    Anway, I chose Collier. I don't think his contract will be picked up. We already have Cato and Yao at Center and Eddie and Taylor can play there as well in a pinch. No real reason to keep him. I am sure he would rather go elsewhere to compete for a backup center spot. No reason for him to stay here next season on the IR list.

    Rice will probably be here but delt during the season next year for some team wanting an expiring contract. And at 9mil a season that is nice trade bait.

    Moochie is signed to a deal and I don't expect him moved unless he was packaged with someone else on the Rockets roster.

    Maurice Taylor has a large contract and will be tough to trade.
    Kelvin Cato is playing up to his contract this year finally and has some trade value but only if the right deal comes along.

    Terence Morris' contract will be up however. I think the Rockets would like to resign him, they like his versitlity. I am sure they will resign him for a modest amount. Morris becomes more of a need if James Posey is not resigned.

    I'm hoping they keep James Posey since I don't think he'll attract as much as he thinks....He's a role player in my eyes.

    TMO will be kept since he is really starting to play better when given the time.

    Rice will either be traded in the summer or the fall.

    Collier will be gone.

    Moochie Norris---I'm not sure if he fits this team anymore, but without an adequate PG ....he's not going anywhere.
