Plan B: Maybe same as A, except with Joe Johnson (can he play SF?) C-G: Same as Plan A and B pretty much, except target different superstars Buy more second round picks Draft the 14th pick Resign Lowry and Scola to reasonable deals Give those picks times to up their trade stock Between now and trade deadline, dangle those rookies, expirings, budinger and hill in front of teams, let them know they have options if they want to cut ties with... Chris Paul Al Jefferson Amare Stoudemire Carmelo Anthony Josh Smith If there is nothing obvious that works, Morey won't force it. Our young guys will get better and Yao will be back. We should be pretty competitive without a major superstar. As long as we don't do anything rash, we'll have good assets to build around or trade for a few years coming.
So I guess we can say that whatever plan B is, if we have to resort to it, the outcome is going to be a total abortion? :grin:
Stoudemire/Boozer must be plan B. Plan C is probably stand pat, re-sign Lowry/Scola, and improve through the draft.
where in the hell will wade play if he comes to houston? if we can sign and trade martin and give up one important piece (or not) for wade then do it asap!!!!!!!!!!!!
some of you want Chris Paul has plan B but thats not who we need we need big players and and big talented player we don't need chris paul at all it would be nice if we didn't give up anyone but we would and the point guard is not the rockets problem........for exaple when every one got injured we had to play armstorng wh sucks because we needed big players sooooooooo ..................im done trying to talk since into clutch fans heads ..............no afence.........lol
We have a winner!!! Think about it....NYK lose out on Lebron and Wade where do they go now? Unless they think Lee is someone to build around (which I doubt because if that were the case they would not have cleared the cap space for TWO max contracts) they would/should just clear the same space for another run at the 2011 FA's and get their draft picks back in the process.
As much as Yming is my fav player, we need a good back up 4/5. Cant rely on health as much as I hate to say it.
Assuming Plan A is Bosh. Plan B: Stoudemire Plan C: Iggy Plan D: Acquire Embarrassing Photos of Sam Presti Plan E: Lots of Alcohol, Cynthia Cooper, Dikembe Mutumbo, and a contract selling the first born male to Morey. Did I mention the lots of alcohol? Plan F: Have Tim Grover rehab Yao Plan G: Find mosquito stuck in Olajuwon's jersey. Extract blood from mosquito. Make an Olajuwon clone using frog dna to fill in the gaps. Plan H: Instead off using 3 million to buy picks...use it to buy refs.
Look to trade Brooks, and maybe Hill. Brooks stock is at its peak. Hill's may be too. Brooks, and Budinger can get you some decent players if Morey decides to make Lowry the starting PG. If the Rockets do trade Budinger and Hill, they should look to hedge that decision by signing Miller and Miller. Yao/Miller/Andersen Scola/Hayes/Jeffries Ariza/Battier Martin/Miller/Taylor Brooks/Lowry Which position can you upgrade the most by trading Budinger, and Hill? Should the Rockets trade both of them to move up to the second pick in the draft? Is Evan Turner worth the risk? I still believe the weakest positions are SF and PG postions. By trading Battier, Budinger, Brooks, and Hill to the Warriors for Curry and Maggete the Rockets could end up way over the top. Yao / Miller / Andersen Scola / Hayes / Jeffries Maggette / Ariza Martin / Miller / Taylor Curry / Lowry If not, the Rockets could let it ride for half a season and determine a trade is necessary.
Dude, you don't get this whole CHRIS BOSH WILL NEED TO WANT TO PLAY ON ANY TEAM HE IS TRADED TO thing. Cross of OKC, Utah, Sacramento, New Jersey and the Clippers right now.
Plan B is Amare Plan C is Boozer and I would be interested in what Morey thinks of David Lee IMO I believe Brad Miller ends up here even if Bosh, Amare, Boozer, Lee or no one else comes on board. Miller is a perfect backup center who knows Adelman's offense. Bosh or Amare will end up here and probably for less than we think.
I don't want Bosh to be our Plan A ...it just make us become one of the contenders.... Please give me Wade...
I haven't been posting on here in a while b/c final exams, but aren't you supposed to be gone b/c martin shot better than 43% for the season.
