    I really hope that isn't the deal. Yeah give up every young player you have, every player you have, and swap them out for Orlando's roster. Great idea there.

    Three rookies...PLUS Parsons...Plus Martin....

    I can't see Morey bending over like this...then again we did just amnesty Scola...

    If we keep all the picks then I'm fine with this.

    We could use the Toronto pick + to trade for Josh Smith

    Don't the Magic have some leverage over Houston, now? Since news is out that we amnestied Scola?

    Orlando can just say "give us what we want, or you will have amnestied Scola for nothing," right?

    That's way too much and it's not true that we'd have to include all that to make the salary math work (assuming we amnesty Scola and wait until the Lin offer is matched to finalize the deal).

    If Morey trades all those players for a 1 year Dwight rental..he should be fired!!:mad:

    That is a lot to be giving up. I personally can't see that happening, no doubt we will pay overs but that is bordering on insane.
