    These are two REALISTIC trade proposals that check out at Real GM:

    Rockets trade Mobley
    Bulls trade Jamal Crawford and Marcus Fizer
    OR
    Rockets trade Mobley, Taylor, and Rice
    Raptors trade Alvin Williams, Antonio Davis, and Hakeem Olajuwon

    Both of these trades give us a 6'5 point guard with shooting range to compliment Steve and Yao.
    Both of these trades give us a physical power forward willing to fight inside for shots and rebounds.
    The Bulls have been looking to move Crawford and Fizer all year long to break up log-jams at their point guard and power forward positions. Also, the Bulls don't have anyone of note at shooting guard.
    ESPN Insider Chad Ford reports today Williams and Davis are on the trading block, and it's well-known in these parts that the Raptors want out of Olajuwon's contract. Also, the Raptors were our main competition to sign Mobley last year, so you know they'd have interest.

    You know Krause think Crawford is the next superstar and for some reason a few other teams think the same way. Jordan could have had Brand if he didn't demand Crawford also for that #1. We had a player just like Fizer in Thomas. Fizer is a good bench player like Thomas,Corliss,and Malik Rose but not starter quality in the west. If you want to get better, get a SAR or Brand.

    The thing is, no one can put together a realistic trade scenario for either of those guys. The Clippers especially don't need Mobley or Eddie. And the Hawks want a point guard, something we need. How do you get those guys? Trades where we get better and the other team gets dunked are unrealistic and just waste space on the board - this defines every Kevin Garnett trade idea on here.

    Problem with this one is that Crawford is agonizingly inconsistent and Fizer is as dumb as a bucket. And not even a smart bucket at that. He's of the dumbest players in the entire league. Hall-of-Fame, retire-his-brain dumb. Fizer is the Michael Jordan of dumb.

    Before his stroke-of-luck basket at the end of that game, he had about a half-dozen mistakes that allowed the Rox to be in a position to win at the end. I thought Bill Cartwright was going to have an aneurysm.
