    Bro...I'm sorry but...what's your line of thinking here?

    The Pistons are going to trade their franchise cornerstone and rapidly developing big man for...what? A player who couldn't see PT on the youngest team in the league?

    GJGE man.

    Leave it to BR to think that we are trying to trade TRob for a player of "equal" contract value.

    uuuumm, let me show you why Bleacher Report articles are crap

    Established fact: Rockets want to trade Robinson to free up 3.5M his salary will take up on the cap.

    This guy wants to trade Jonas Jerebko(4.5M for two more years) and Kyle Singler(1.04M for the next three years.) for Robinson(3.5M) and Delfino(3M expiring)

    Not only does it not free up cap room that will do the job, but it gives us two players with contracts that go for at least two more years.

    In order to easily free up the room they need Delfinos contract to be gone and trade Robinson for nothing of monetary value(picks only)..this trade does nothing to fulfill the Rockets needs at this time.

    I know, they do it for every little thing. They act like no one should ever post anything. If they're so uptight about it all maybe they should not click on and read it.

    It's garbage.

    What you linked proposed T-Rob and Delfino for Jerebko and Singler. Genius proposal made in this "article" as the 13-year old who banged out the 7-page slideshow in his basement didn't take the time to realize Delfino is not guaranteed next year, so his proposal doesn't save the Rockets money --- it bogs them down with more guaranteed money now and in the future.

    Bleacher Report. Nothing they write is thread-worthy here. Nothing.

    Edit - What R2K said.
