    And then watch Sloan's system turn Yao into Walton Squared. Yuck.

    Why am I not shocked that after a whole 3 or 4 months off, your very first post is for Yao to leave. You spent the entire second half of the season and playoffs last year whining about Yao, and not contributing one single decent thing to say about the rest of the Rox.

    As much as I love Yao you got to do that trade in a heartbeat.

    1) you get one of the best shot blockers in the nba (who had 8 yesterday) and one hell of a rebounder

    2) The PG solution we are aching in pains about when we lost out on Barry and to lesser extent Fisher
    and this guy is young and has enormous upside -looked what he did to the dream team this past summer.

    3) The "bruising" PF that can rebound and hit the shots that we can only cry for MO or Howard to do.

    Traded done and accepted on our side but no way in hell Utah would do that if they could.

    You take 2 trash players and a good but nothing more than semi star player who only survive in Sloan's system and toss them in JVG's system... yeah I'd do that trade in a second. :rolleyes:
