    <b> Travis Best</b>

    He is a freeagent that could be had at 4.9 mil, he could be a greater pickup than Daniels. Rockets should think about this when they or if they indeed offer a contract to Daniels. Best at Best could offer a great solid hard nose defensive PG, and could be what the doctor ordered!.

    Travis Best
    8.4 PPG 3.5 APG IN 25.1 MPG

    <B>Derrick Coleman? </B>
    would he join the rockets for the Vets? I like his game, hes old but still very productive, and would be better than Griffin until griff develops in 2 or 3 years. Coleman could be promised more money down the road whatever it takes.
    This would mean hardly no playing time for Taylor leading to a trade that would involve him and The Cat, and maybe Rice! Somewhere like Utah for Matt Harpring and Andrei Kirlenko

    <b>Projected Lineup
    Francis/Best
    Harpring/Posey
    Kirlenko/Nacbar/Posey
    Coleman/Griffin
    Ming/Cato/Coleman

    Ya or Na?

    For that to work, Utah's mgmt would have to be replaced with dogs.

    Na. Wait...heck na.

    Its hard to say if Utah would give up Harpring, but if they got 2 potential scores in Taylor,Mobley, then i see why they would like to get houston deal. Rice would be great for them cause he got a great 3pt shot and comes off the books for them. Harping and Andrei were role players for stockton and malone, no way are they going to be better with them gone, id trade with houston to get some better scorers. It helps both teams, as for us we need role players for Steve,Yao and they need more scorers and leaders.

    It'd be nice to have Kirilenko. But it won't work. Na.

    Sure, but it would never happen. Why sign Best? Pike and Daniels would be better. And I would take AK-47 over Posey anyday.

    PG-Francis\Daniels
    SG-Harpring\Pike
    SF-Kirlenko\Posey(?)\Boki
    PF-Griffin\Coleman
    C-Yao\Cato

    That is a better lineup than before.

    Posey is not a solid starter like matt would be, he would be a great 6th man coming off the bench for solid mins...

    Coleman/Best/Andrei/Harpring

    are excellant splash. Would be great to see them all in uni's.

    - There is probably no was we could get AK, but maybe Cheaney if they sign and trade him

    Francis/Best/Norris
    Harping/Cheaney/Hawkins
    Posey/Cheaney/Nacbar
    Griffin/Coleman
    Ming/Cato
