    Luis is my MVP. If he gets traded, I'll follow wherever he goes. ;)

    He won't be getting paid $3 million a year after next year. He's going to be getting a lot more.

    all wrong. I think ARIZA is the most untouchable. why?

    cause he sux and with that contract no one want to get near him. Therefore rockets pretty much stuck.

    I think they would prefer scola he fits their team because he's foreign, and those players like toronto.

    Landry and Brooks. Both all-star caliber talents IMO.

    Carl "I have a man-crush on him" Landry.

    I had his jersey made before the organization marketed the official one, and he signed it at the season ticket holder party his rookie year. The line to the Carl Landry bandwagon ride starts behind me.

    Carl Landry.

    The end.

    (Also anyone who Carl says he wants to stay.)

    Carl Landry definitely, he is a bargain for what we are paying him.

    Also I would hate to get rid of AB but if it brought an upgrade at PG I could see us getting rid of him but it would be really hard.

    When did DM or RA say they expected Ariza to be a 20ppg machine?? I think they were pretty clear when they signed him that they were NOT expecting an increase in his scoring average, if there was any it would be a plus.



    Besides this. I believe DM also publicly stated. NO ONE is untradeable.


    If this thread is purely based on public opinion, then I would have to go with "The Man Who Stand Next To Watercooler"

    This.

    If we didn't have the current mentality, without Yao and no superstar, we could possibly be just what Charles Barkely predicted.

    Scola is getting old and peaker, Landry will pass him up... gee, who is more trade worthy in a rebuilding year? Scola is VERY trade worthy.

    Cook and Dorsey would be first on my list to go, then Ariza, Battier next, after that, it would all depend on who is offered. Frankly, I have never thought Battier was a starter; glue guys just aren't high on my list. True, Shane does the little things, but IMO, overall, he does very little. Ariza is just a huge disappointment. He is obviously a role player who will never be ready for the "next level." Cook and Dorsey are bench fodder.

    Scola is my version of a "glue" guy; he does so many things well. Brooks and Landry have "star" potential. Hayes is a solid defender, but isn't a starter. C-Bud has enormous potential, and we haven't seen half of what he will eventually do. Anderson is a nice role player, but I could live without him. Lowry is an interesting player, not much of a shooter, but seems to defend well and make things happen. Scola, Brooks, and Landry should not be traded unless it is the deal of the century. As to Yao, I just don't know. He is so injury prone you just can't count on him, don't know. I would certainly not give him a long term/max contract, that would be stupid. I would be open to a trade for the "right" player.

    Mmmm Odom, West... Aldridge...

    Scola is very limited and that hurts him specially against the best players of the better teams. And I prefer players who show their best play at those occasions.

    Wrong thread, but I feel like this has become quite an issue. Those of us who have contributed 10-20 dollars and are unable to even VIEW the forums during high traffic periods are getting the shaft. I donated three years ago, and the fact that I still am not allowed to view the forums during high traffic periods has made me reluctant to ever donate again.

    i say forget bosh.. we have all we ever need at the four position. We wait till the offseason and get a star at the two possition like a wade or joe johnson. I love landry and scola both, Scola a little bit more, but Scolandry to me should stay.. lets get Wade in the offseason..

    I don't want to make a trade that breaks us up,but no one is untradeable as far as I'm concerned. I like our young guys,Luis and Chuck,and respect Shane. Anything that helps the team in the short and or long term is fine with me.
    That is not easy by any means.

    Landry/Scola...except if we're getting Bosh or Iggy+something else.

    Brooks...but only for Bosh or Cp3. Getting Iggy but losing Brooks would make us weaker, we would lose our only consistent 3 pt threat.
