    ESPN trade machine is meant to have accurate numbers. Generally their numbers are the same as ShamSports or eventually are the same.

    If Dampier's contract can be used in a three-way. Bobcats could absorb Smith's contract without paying luxury tax depending on the pieces moved.

    DON'T TRADE AB OR MARTIN

    I don't know if there is already a thread dedicated to this but as a Rockets fan I would be very disappointed to see either one of these players in another uniform come next season.

    Aaron Brooks gets a lot of mixed reviews but no matter how you look at it he's a huge piece of this team. Yes he's a shoot first PG but that's what he had to do for the Rox to be successful last season. He has already shown great improvement and was rewarded with the MIP award. I feel that with a full season of the weapons that DM has surrounded him with he'll continue to improve especially in the assist portion of his stats. AB is the one of the fastest and best shooting PG's in the league, with the ability to be an all star in future years. It would be disappointing to see him go to denver and bring in a washed up PG in Billups.

    As for K-mart, the guy is an animal. He's an amazing shooter and can create a shot out of almost anything. Had he not been in Sacramento he would for sure be an all star. He's the most under rated player on our roster, even for Melo I'm not ok with losing him. He has had a chance to learn the system and build chemistry with the team over the off season and paired with Yao he's only going to get better.

    I vote no on trading either one of these guys to any team, especially one in out conference. Their the heart of this team and will be for years to come. Trade for Iggy and don't get rid of the key pieces. They deserve to stay Rockets!

    I'm going to do a peeve...IBTL.

    But yeah, I agree. I think Martin and Yao are going to be like peas and carrots.

    Funny thing is some radio commentor said he saw three moving trucks at Aarons Brooks house today. He was just some guy that called in and lives near him. Could be nothing????

    Theres two type of Rocket fans on this board. The first ones are the ones who love the Rockets but would stay mediocore for the next decade if it meant there favorite players would never get traded. I like Kmart as well but if you tell me we have a chance to get CARMELO ANTHONY then I'd lose absoulutley no sleep watching him go. Aaron Brooks is a good player but I'd trade his ass quick for Chris Paul. Some of you guys get too emotional to the point where you dont even want the Rockets to get better. I dont get it

    I'm in favor of automatic rookifying as a sanction for starting a thread in all caps.

    Don't fall in love with players.

    Morey looks at them as assets.

    someone please shut this filthy thread down. have you ever heard the expression "you have to give something to get something"? we need a star caliber player to pair with yao. and if trading martin means just that, then go for it morey.
