    Where do I sign up?

    I wouldn't mind seeing a move including some other players to include Rashard, but I'm just dreaming just like DA.

    Francis + Griffin
    FOR
    Allen + Daniels or Ridnour

    Do salries match up? I would do this in heart beat...

    If I could have any 2 in the league for this team it would be Ray Allen. His shooting would be huge in an offense centered on Yao, and he averages 5 assists a game.

    if hou sign van exel in the off season then i'd predict a significant trade for a big name forward in exchange for mobley, mot/cato and two or three scrubs.

    Cat and Steve for Allen and crap aint worth it


    Steve for Allen(even with his Injury troubles) I woudl do just because of Allens game.

    Throw in Vlad. Radmoniv9w4utwoiroi and we throw in Mo T and you have the perfect deal

    I think Mark Stein said that francis could be headed east. I would trade for ray allen in a second, though i hope he doesn't have anymore injury problems.

    He tossed it out on ESPN's NBA Fastbreak.

    Another prediction from one of the other guys was a 3 way deal involving Atlanta, Philly and Houston.

    A deal with Seattle would have to involve resigning Allen to an extention since he only has 1 year left(I think).

    Can we get a little context for this statement? I assume he predicted this on TV. Was he asked to give a wild guess or does he know something?

    with ray allan on the team, nobody would double up on yao, and if we add van exel and rasheed, that would be a nice team:eek:

    Remember, last year, around trading deadline, the Rockets were heavy players in last years trade talks involving Ray Allen so there may be something there.

    To do it before the trade deadline risks chemistry, means PG is played by Allen, M. Jackson and Wilkes and uses the entire TE
    and would include Nachbar.

    Wait until summer.

    On his ESPN.com chat from the 5th he stated that he didn't think anything would happen during the season for the Rockets.

    Where is this coming from? TV? Link?

    SAR has never made the playoffs, is always on losing teams, and plays poor defense.

    Hmm...

    There is a one slight problem with signing Van Exel in the offseason. He isn't a free agent until after the 04-05 season. If you're referring to the article in which he said he's either returning to Texas after next season or retiring, he said exactly that. After NEXT season. Not after this season. He still has another year left on his contract and he can't afford to give it up.

    he said it on put up or shut up.......... first marc stein said we would trade steve before next season in a three way deal with philly and atlanta, that would include iverson and rasheed..........then DA said that marc stein had something but predicted it would be ray allan for steve.........stein said it was time for a new direction for the team and that they would like to build around yao
