    come on. In Morey's world Martin is just a filler and a huge asset to acquire a TRUE superstar. ;)

    dude, we have what offer for lee? all you know is that the bulls are offering a 1st rounder. you have no idea how good the offer is. they could be low-balling. we also have no idea what teams will trade for Martin. My point is that i'm assuming we could get more for martin because he's a better player, but over the long-term, especially if we are trying to rebuild, lee seems like the player to keep. you can disagree but it's not ignorant. i'm not worried about the short-term and replacing Martin's 23ppg. eventually, if we rebuild the right way, we'll get a player of martin's caliber. or maybe Lee will grow into that player.

    Lee is young enough, athletic, can shoot, and plays defense. Apparently, the guy can score the rock, too. Given the Rockets situation, why in the world would you want to trade Lee?

    He helps both causes now and the future. In fact, I'll go as far as only Lee and Hayes are untouchable on this team.

    Damn right. Lee is easily a 15-17 points player and a serviceable defender.
    Got one final appearance and still room to get better.
    Winner!

    This is getting too intense. I mean Lee, Bud and Battier are the one most likely to get shipped out tomorrow and they all did extremely well tonight.

    It sucks to let those guys go but if it makes us better than so be it.

    LOL, I think any one of us can do what he did to Toronto's front line.
