Shawn Bradley got just as much publicity when he entered the leauge. Ming is not yet signed, so we could still trade him while his value is still high. I say we should send him to Seattle with Glen Rice, Moochie, Norris, and Kelvin Cato. In exchange for Shad, and Vin Baker. Baker did an excellant job on Duncan in the playoffs, Art Long, and Shad is one of the leagues elite SFs (We r pretty weak at that position). Trade Ming, before he is a bust. This would b our line up: C- Vin Baker/ Art Long/ Jason Collier PF- Eddie Griffin/ Mo Taylor/ Kenny Thomas SF- Shad/ Nachbar SG- Cuttino/ (Fife? Hill? Torres?) PG- Stevie/ Tierre/ Maddox We look pretty strong at every positon. What do u think?
i'm sorry, but that is quite simply one of the worse trade ideas i have ever seen. I mean, really, did you propose a trade in which the rockets get vin baker??? Even if yao is a bust, he'll still be twice the player vin baker is without the crippling contract and attitude.
Great idea!!! You are a genius. By the way we should also trade Stevie Francis for Derek Fisher and Eddie Griffin for Derrick Coleman. What do u think?
This would be a crazy idea. People are getting bored and coming up with all kinds of crazy trades. This is a young team and adding a young center with incredible potential is the way to go. Getting Vin Baker (old, fat, and expensive) is NOT the way to go. Don't you think that the #1 pick is work more than a Vin Baker???? And if Shad is Lewis, then why did we pick Nachbar? Besides, Lewis is not worth the MAX or anything near that. So why overpay??? Just relax and watch Ming play BEFORE you predict he's not good. Bradley got the pub because he was tall and sort of mobile. He had no basketball skills and he took 2 yrs off on a missionary trip before he played in the NBA. Even that stiff did decent in his rookie year. Ming on the other hand is a tall, mobile and skilled player who loves the game, has good B-ball IQ, knows the team concept, willing to play for NOTHING (all his pay is going back to China - In fact, he's in debt as of now with he IOUs to country and old team), wants to become the best, and oh yeah, did you notice that he can shoot, pass, rebound and block? That's 3 skills more than Bradley ever had. And I though #1 for Odom and #8 and #12 was bad....
I heard the League is adding an eating competition during the half-time break of the All-star game. We will have a pretty good shot to win it.
I think, "Is Ming worth the hype" topic, has got to be the most worn out conversation on this bbs right now. I mean, even if he isnt ROY, He may turn out to be next big thing, lets not send that to a western conference rival. and if you do Rudy and Co. Dont send it for Seattles answer to Tom Arnold!!! In conclusion, Lets let the team come together before we pull it apart
Bad idea. Don't mess with the Rockets! with that trade offer. Baker is not even worth trading for fat Cato, much less Ming. Hopefully we can get Rashard for just the mid level exception.
