    Well i think this is going to happen for next season for the Rox. Well if the roumours are true about francis wanting to leave and KG wanted to leave we be gladly to do this trade.

    Houston Rox trade

    Steve Francis
    Mo Taylor
    Tito Maddox

    Mini trade

    KG
    Mike Wilks

    Houston will do this trade because they need a PF to back up Ming in the paint, the bad thing is that we split up Francis and Mobes but ill work out for both of them.

    Minni will do it because KG wants to get out of the wolves since they arent going nowhere for a couple of years. And they will get a average PF and a all star PG.

    Houston lineup

    PG-Moochie
    SG-Mobes
    SF-Posey
    PF-KG
    C-Ming

    backup

    PG-Mike Wilks
    SG-sign a key free agent/posey
    SF-Nackbar/Rice
    PF-Eddie(learn from KG)
    C-Cato/Collier

    Minni lineup

    PG-Steve
    SG-who ever
    SF-Wally
    PF-Mo Taylor
    C-Nestrovic

    This trade scenario is only valid if Garnett is involved in a freak lawn-mowing accident and gets both of his feet chopped off.

    or

    Steve Francis is accidentally bit by a genetically engineered spider which gives him supernatural strength and jumping ability.


    I have a very high tolerence for repeat threads. The Garnett trade ideas are so ridiculous (unless this thread is a joke, then i'm sorry).

    Garnett trade would take Yao/Francis going to the Wolves. Only way....

    now that's funny.

    mike wilks is better than moochie in my opinion. he can actually play defense on stephon marbury. he's that young rookie point guard right?

    when i'm smoking marajuana, this is what i see.

    PG Wilks
    SG Mobley
    SF Posey
    PF KG
    C Yao

    you may wanna watch... some replays of Moochie. Moochie starting in this league is about as sensible as the trade idea you posted (being the fact that the salary matching is not even close)

    If there would be anything that would be 'good' for the Rockets it would be to end up with none or one of them!

    Uhh well for that to happen you have to add some more players to the trade:rolleyes:. According to the CBA teams over the cap can only receive salaries in a trade that are within 15%+100,000 in what they trade out. Both teams are over the cap and Steve because he is a BYC player next season will only count as 50% of his salary in any trades. So what you are proposing would need a 3rd team to get through.

    my trade is besterer.

    Orlando trades: SF Tracy McGrady (32.1 ppg, 6.5 rpg, 5.5 apg in 39.4 minutes)
    C Andrew DeClercq (4.7 ppg, 4.4 rpg, 0.7 apg in 17.2 minutes)
    C Steven Hunter (3.9 ppg, 2.8 rpg, 0.2 apg in 13.6 minutes)
    Orlando receives: SF Glen Rice (9.0 ppg, 2.5 rpg, 1.1 apg in 24.7 minutes)
    C Kelvin Cato (4.5 ppg, 5.9 rpg, 0.3 apg in 17.1 minutes)
    PG Moochie Norris (4.3 ppg, 1.9 rpg, 2.4 apg in 16.8 minutes)
    Change in team outlook: -22.9 ppg, -3.4 rpg, and -2.6 apg.

    Houston trades: SF Glen Rice (9.0 ppg, 2.5 rpg, 1.1 apg in 24.7 minutes)
    C Kelvin Cato (4.5 ppg, 5.9 rpg, 0.3 apg in 17.1 minutes)
    PG Moochie Norris (4.3 ppg, 1.9 rpg, 2.4 apg in 16.8 minutes)
    Houston receives: SF Tracy McGrady (32.1 ppg, 6.5 rpg, 5.5 apg in 75 games)
    C Andrew DeClercq (4.7 ppg, 4.4 rpg, 0.7 apg in 77 games)
    C Steven Hunter (3.9 ppg, 2.8 rpg, 0.2 apg in 33 games)
    Change in team outlook: +22.9 ppg, +3.4 rpg, and +2.6 apg.

    TRADE ACCEPTED

    Due to Orlando and Houston being over the cap, the 15% trade rule is invoked. Orlando and Houston had to be no more than 115% plus $100,000 of the salary given out for the trade to be accepted, which did happen here. This trade satisfies the provisions of the Collective Bargaining Agreement.


    Magic get a top 10 center, a former all star player, and the best bobble-head player in the business.

    Rockets get some dude and a couple of dorks.

    just you watch.

    That is the best use of the RealGm Trade checker I have ever seen... until I found this blockbuster that will work!!


    Lakers get Cap room so they can sign Karla and then they can give Shaq the ball more.

    Spers get a shooting guard to go along with Jesus, a top 15 in the Western Conference center and a guy to keep the Steves(Smith and Kerr) company on the bench.

    Rockets get a couple of veterans that may or may not pan out.

    I wonder what would happen if we actually trade 'both' Yao and Francis for KG

    The Rox would be the next Wolves, maybe worse, considering they can't play together.

    The problem with these trades is that there's no accountability. There's no risk. Since we don't have the ability to throw you from a really high bridge into a really dry riverbed, how about the following :

    If the summer passes, and you are wrong, you are banned. Deal?
