    I think Troy Murphy would be a good fit for us at the 4 if he was athletic,he just seems to be too slow to match up against the PF's in the Western Conference.I think we should keep away from Alvin Jones because he is inconsistant,but I wouldn't be surprised if the Rockets took him with the 18th pick.

    It looks we can scartch the Horry scenario as he decided to stay in LA. According to my calculations, we can keep all 3 picks and still have enough cap room to sign Webber, keep Moochie etc or the other scenario of keeping last yr's team intact. I suppose then that if the Rockets keep all 3 picks, they could look at stocking all 3 positions by looking at SF, PF, C.

    Cato + #13 (I would guess a backup 5/4) to Chicago for Fizer, Fizer for Webber.

    #18. Ken Johnson.
    #23. Terrence Morris.

    Fizer for Webber? I'm not too sure that Sacramento will jump all over that one at this point.

    Now saw off...there's nothing to see here.

    We have had a lot of talk in this thread about only having two picks and getting Morris and Haywood/Woods. I think a better option would be to trade Cato + #13 and maybe #18 to Denver for LaFrentz as mentioned earlier. Denver had an interest in Cato last season. LaFrentz averaged 2.5 blk/gm last season. He has a good perimeter jumper, which fits the rocket gameplan, and workd well against the zone. I know at one point he and Issel had a fallout last season, so maybe he is expendable.

    I think that Cato + #13 is a good trade for us, but I don't know if we can do the trade without #18 as well. I don't know what works capwise though.
