    Looks like Gasol is going at #3.

    wow, Gasol must be good. So, Vancouver has #3 and #6 ? Looks like Gasol and Richardson....

    Question is...do they really want both the #3 and the #6? Or could they be making a move/pick for the Rockets since there was supposed to have been a done deal with the Rockets before? Maybe the Rockets now move up to the #3 or the #6?

    On ESPN Aldridge also reported Vancouver will use the 3 pick on Gasol.

    I hope this means they will be more willing to trade the #6 overall.

    This means we never had the trade bait we thought.

    So much for Rudy saying he doesn't expect any big news.

    TPL...probably not until it's "offical". Which probably won't be until later today.

    I don't think we can move up to 3 w/o giving up Cuttino......so , no, won't happen.

    Ok...here we go! Rockets trade the 18+23 to Orlando for the 15. Rockets turn around and trade the 13+15 for the #3 from Vancouver. Vancouver picks up Gasol at #6 and Rockets take best available (IMO) of what is there at #3. (My #3s Brown/Curry/Griffin or Battier)

    Curly, it was in reference to Rudy's comments on the radio today.

    Sorry...in Round Rock and didn't hear it...Did that mean that despite all the talk, we really didn't have anything that anyone was interested in, or that our picks aren't good enough?
