    Wait, Cyber is saying that the Rockets would give up Terry/Pop + NO 1st for Hill. What in the f***?

    Expiring a and Knixies is excellent return, and Rox worth it, as well IMO.

    No need for Hill, with Jones, D-Mo and Smith being on the team. I wouldn't give the Pelicans pick for him, nor would I give up Jones/D-Mo or Terry for him either.

    Let the haters hate. Move past them player.

    Something like k.pap/dorsey/nyk2nd should be decent value

    Let's not overwork this. Pay Shved and Paps a combined $7.8 million to be lap-warmer puppies for the assistant coaches? Or pay that to Hill? (Albeit for the NYK 2nd rounder and the aforementioned contracts.)

    Rather than concentrate on what Jordan Hill cannot do, let's think about what he does bring. A more-than-serviceable big who rebounds well and whose shot has improved quite a bit....

    ...although I don't know if he'll fit into this team's philosophy:

    Yoda Morey: "No! No! Stubborn you are. Miss layups. Miss threes. Mid-range? There is no make."

    Sounds like something like that could make sense, but I'm not sure Jordan Hill would be worth that much especially given that he's going to be an unrestricted FA in the off-season but he'd be a clear upgrade over Dorsey.

    So..... Haddadi is a "younger and taller" version of Marcus Camby....

    Never ceases to stop producing gold nuggets on the GARM. I love it.

    However.... its not official until he's added to your sig.

    I know you are not serious about this, I was kind of joking abound too. But seriously, I do not want to pay $M9 to him on the rockets team even without giving up any asset for a trade.

    Yes and D-Mo turned 24 in September. Unless we are getting something to put us over the hump (not Jordan Hill) I'm not giving up a 23 year old PF with decent handles, good finisher, improving defender and learning to shoot the corner 3 or a 7 footer that is 24 year old that has post moves that are starting to become unstoppable without a double team with both hands I might add, makes good passes, plays solid position defense, and is learning to shoot the corner 3. D-mo can bulk up another 10 lbs of muscle and become a better center. They aren't going anywhere unless we are talking Dragic, maybe Lawson if I was the GM and that would be subject to many other factors.

    The uncertainty surrounding Dwight Howard should be enough to make both DMo and Jones untouchable. We can't afford to lose ANY big man depth....except Joey Dorsey. We could light him on fire and set him adrift and it wouldn't significantly hurt the team so long as we had the ball boy or something like that take his roster spot

    The NOP pick is one of the Rockets best assets. I don't see that moved for anything less than an "impact player." (e.g. Dragic, Lawson etc).

    IF the Rockets were really hot for Jordan Hill, the MOST I would give up is the NYK 2nd rounder (+ expirings). And that should be a pretty good pick.

    Cyberx, appreciate your info on D-Mo, TJones.

    Hill is barely worth a second rounder. To the Rockets, with three healthy bigs that are better than him, he is worth nothing.

    DWill and Hill lol cyberx is on a roll of misinformation.

    Jordan Hill has been very good this year

    that midrange jumper is money, would love him here if Dwight is out for the season
