    Just Seeing what some of the Trades would leave us.
    Look at your trade proposals and let's see which one will
    be best?

    Take in consideration how much BENCH we will have
    after some of the trades :)

    Well .. . . basically no.
    Just that
    A. Ming is more likely. . . .
    b: Ming doesn't cost us Griff and other key bench players
    [that wasn't said but .. . from all accounts getting KG may cost
    us at best just Griff. . . .at worse Griff, Mobley, MoT and the #1]

    I voted Ming because he is more likely . . . I probably should have
    just left the KG posibility off.
    Since IMO it is dreamcasting

    That's pretty funny you guys would have Cato at the four...

    I'm one of his biggest supporters, but uh..

    lol, Cato at the 4... classic

    C'mon guys. If we can get Kevin Garnett in Houston, I would give up Eddie Griffin happily. I like Griff as much as the next guy, but I don't think he will be a Garnett.

    Yes, but Griffin and Ming?

    If we do Griffin, Ming+Cap Fillers, we are not getting as much as we can.

    Garnett is great, but if we are trading Yao, we have to take advantage of his "tradeability."

    Don't sell Griffin short just yet either...

    Like Oeilpere said, KG is a LONGSHOT. So don't get your hopes up. I would give up Eddie to get KG but it will be so hard to do under the CBA.

    Ming could be such a force, I think we should roll the dice and take the big guy.

    I like the Ming lineup Rocket River, but where is KT, Eddie, or MoT? They are all traded? No way Cato is a 4.

    The value that the #1 has is so amazing. I can't wait to see what kind of deal CD and Rudy pull off. Wouldn't it be amazing if we could pull a New Jersey and get Brand and Odom for the #1 and a big contract or two? :)

    The Thing with the Ming lineup and the Dunleavy line ups
    is that they can be STR8 additions. . . no subtractions
    so Mo and Kt would still be here

    I put Cato at the four . .. . basically for defense.
    Low Post Defense
    It is the strongest Defensive Squad to me that we could
    put on the floor.
