    LA knows how to harness cancers. Rockets can only handle good boys like Shane Battier and Yao Ming who play WoW at home.

    I wish he was our starting 3 :(

    Lowry
    Martin
    Artest
    Scola
    Hayes

    That's is a great defensive line up to go around Martin and Scola. A bunch of try hards.

    To Houston:
    Artest
    Bynum
    Caracter

    To LA:
    Yao
    Chase

    Does that work for you? It works for RealGM. Lakers look to this trade because it's low risk high reward. Houston does this trade because they recently suffered a series of head injuries and feel that Bynum is a successful follow-up to the Yao era. Everybody wins.

    I'd do that trade in a heartbeat. Yao is pretty much all but finished now..

    Didn't Jordan do something similar when he played with the Wizards? I think he donated his salary to the families who were directly affected by the 9/11 attacks.

    That would be a very cool thing to do.

    Ron's great, seems to be a nice guy, helps others, and doesn't care that he is just weird.
