    Good to hear the stars are voicing their opinions. Why give away a guy that attracted your new C in the first place?

    I think Lin needs to and will become a better shooter, but both he and the team need to improve on protecting the ball. If I had any hair I would've pulled it out watching the team give the ball up so much.

    If he improves on these things then I think he can be our PG of the future.

    Hollingers USG rate on ESPN also takes in account assists.

    NBA stars can get a coach fired.
    Although Morey has the final say, if two stars on the team want something, they do have strong influence and leverage.

    That's not bad. A lot to yield, but it's what it might take to get a deal done.

    The Bucks would never do that. They get nothing but garbage back

    To trade Aldridge, Portland will definetly need to make a multi-team deal as mention on the board...here is another take the Rockets can make out with Aldridge:


    Rockets Out: T.Jones, D-Mo, Asik ,M.Todorovic and Future 1st and Future 2nd
    Rockets In: Aldridge and Jason Thompson

    Kings Out: Demarcus Cousins and Jason Thompson
    Kings In: D-Mo, S. Karasev, Tristan Thompson, M. Todorovic and Hou 1st and Hou 2nd, Clev 2nd.

    Cavaliers Out: Tristan Thompson, S.Karasev and Future 2nd
    Cavaliers In: Asik

    Portland Out: Aldridge
    Portland In: Demarcus Cousins and T.Jones

    Houston gets Aldridge and backup PF

    Kings get picks, a PF with all-star talent(Thompson) and players with high potential. Plus get rid of Cousins's bad attitude.

    Cavaliers get a great center with Asik plus they will replace Thompson with their first round pick, Anthony Bennett.

    Portland gets rid of Aldridge while getting back a franchise center to pair with Lillard.

    Lol so the same Dwight Howard that asked for a potential third star in a recruiting meeting also wants Asik and Lin to stay...

    Not sure cavs do that with Bynum because they would be in the same problem rockets find themselves in..

    And even though I think the kings are being screwed they would proberly be dumb enough to accept that with their history

    Have you seen who the Bucks have signed? Delfino, Zaza Pachulia, O.J. mayo, each signed 3 year deals. Luke Ridnour was acquired in a trade as well.

    Clearly, they are comfortable being a mediocre franchise. Gunnin' for that 9th spot.
