    Lin for Calderon doesn't make sense. How much is Calderon on?

    It's all about the role players as well.

    If we can sign better ones than Ray Allen, Birdman, Chalmers, Haslem, Miller, Batman, Green, Neal, Splitter

    I am all for it.
    Les has to go over the cap if that's what it takes as well

    Why trading Lin? To get third star?

    This may be the first time I've ever agreed with you.

    Calderon is severely underrated offensively. Very good on that end. His defensive woes can be masked if Dwight/J. Smith were to work out here.

    @KBergCBS: Another possible landing spot for Jeremy Lin is Detroit, source says. Rockets would acquire Jose Calderon in sign-and-trade in such a deal.

    I'm getting a bit worried that our confidence might get the best of us.

    I think you mean either 'septic' or 'suspect.'

    He fits in our offense much better but a Harden-Calderon backcourt on defense? No thanks.

    Sounds like mowry is going to clear up as much as he can and pitch take less money for a great chance at a ring.

    Calderon would be sweet. Best assist to turnover ratio and the sweet 3 point stroke

    Jose Calderon? That's a downgrade. He can makes threes, great at free throws, knows how to run an offense, but cannot create his own shot. Slow and unathletic.

    Didn't Calderon own Lin in the beginning of the season?

    I love Rondo, I've stated many times in the past when he was kickin lebrons butt in Cleveland that he's the best PG in the game, but his personality mite be toooo strong. I'm afraid he and Harden will clash. harden will want the rock and Rondo will be too stubborn and too smart for his own good. He clashed with Ray, Pierce, and even with Doc at times.

    I would love to have Rondo but he's VERY difficult to deal with.
