I’m thinking the Rockets envision Battier being that 4 that spreads the floor, rather than a 2/3. A power forward rotation of Howard/Novak/Hayes...
Now this really annoys me. It’s obvious it was Roy or bust for the Rockets. They had no contingency plans in case trading for Roy was not possible...
http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/sports/bk/bkn/4010820.html Trade is Gay + Swift for Battier
See, this is the type of package teams generally give up to move up only 2 spots in the draft. Portland gives up Vicktor Khyapa, a scrub bench...
I think it’s Ty Thomas that Portland is after at #7. They were the worst rebounding team in the league and a very poor defensive team last season....
Foye’s got a bit more explosiveness to his game than Mike James does. He’s exactly the type of guard that the new NBA rules favor most. Quick,...
Telfair is no better than Luther Head. If he’s worth the 7th pick, than #8+Head should be worth a helluva lot more than what’s been rumored.
Great, so now the Rockets are talking about trading up to #2, which will probably end up costing us even more than #8+Head. You know, if Brandon...
The player that nbadraft.net compares Gaines to (Jim Jackson) is a pretty good comparison for Brandon Roy.
And too many times, the Rockets have become so infatuated with a player that they end up giving up far more for that player than they needed....
Yes, they could, but are Atlanta, Minnesota, or Boston willing to trade down low enough and risk losing the players they want (Sheldon Williams,...
The fact that these teams are actively looking to trade down when it’s very likely Roy will be available, strongly indicates that they are not...
The Rockets are getting ripped off. Picks 4 through 7 are already in place. Portland wants Morrison, Atlanta wants Sheldon Williams, Minnesota...
I mentioned in another thread, but if Minnesota wants Foye so badly, and Boston wants Marcus Williams, why bother even trading up? It seems...
There’s no team in the league better at finding young talent than Phoenix. If they want Brewer so badly, that bodes well for him as a player. The...
Is there really any doubt that he thinks he can push Dallas over the top?
This move kind of leaves Dallas a little thin at the swing positions with only Howard and Stackhouse. I could see them maybe looking to move...
#4+Miles for #8+Howard would be my choice, although the Hornets deal wouldn’t be too bad either. The more I think about it, the more silly the...
Amare is the player that benefits most from this trade. He never has to guard Yao, Duncan, Shaq, KG ever again. Chandler gives the Suns a big man...
Luther made some huge strides the last couple of months of the season at improving his ability to dribble, get to the basket, and not settle for...
