    I guess after the first time it gets easier for them? Just "find a happy place"?

    Sacramento would be actually more willing to include Nocioni than Kenny Thomas in that deal, they are getting younger and Noc's longer contract gets in the way.

    But if we do this i think either Ariza or Battier (sadly the most likely) will have to go.

    So what's the deal with Michael Redd? I remember people saying they wanted him for T-Mac a year ago.

    I would actually like this trade too. I think Redd fits better than Martin, plays better defense, has more experience and has been a very coachable player as of late both with the US team as with Milwakee were he is handling being a sixth men pretty well.
    If they add Delfino or Kurt Thomas to the mix to match salaries i will do it in a hearbeat. I would be hesitant to do it if they asked us to take on another bigger and larger contract than delfino's 3 year at 3.5 per year.

    I really hope we dont lose any of the team in the trade...
    just let tmac ride the books or trade him and cook, but no one else should go. The team is playing great, dont break it up

    I was going to give them D. Cook or C. Bud but I was inside the head of ole Mr. Riley. He wouldn't want anything but expiring scraps in return.

    I think the wizards might have a decent package. Its clear something is wrong with the arenas/butler duo and its also clear the wagons are hitched to arenas with his contract. Just a thought,but here it is. Without looking, 3'm sure the money works.

    Tracy,scola,Taylor,and Dorsey

    for

    Butler,Miller,James,and Oberto

    27.5m going out 26m coming back.,

    If they deal him to the Kings, I just hope Omri Caspi is in the mix.

    That way I'll be able to finally see Rockets games in Israel!

    Trevor has more value than you think he does. Its only that this year, his value is very low because they asked him to shoot lights out. Next year when there will be Yao and eventually a second option, he'll come down to earth and will play way better.

    As for Tmac's trade, I doubt we are going to get any superstar value in return or any Anthony Randolph kind of value in return.
    I think we will all be surprised when we see a Rafer-Kyle Lowry kind of deal go on.
    Everyone will be like "who the f is this dude?" and he'll just be another great contributor, but nothing amazing.

    McGrady, 1st round pick, Carl Landry and Aaron Brooks for Dwade and Jermaine Oneal.

    I am just wondering if Miami thinks he will even sign another deal there? Maybe they would panic...

    Jermaine Oneal/Hayes/Andersen
    Scola/Andersen/Hayes
    Ariza/Battier
    Wade/Budinger
    Lowry/FA or other trade.

    i agree, i really really wanted things to work, but if they don't than I will have to accept it : / i just hope we don't inherit any longterm contracts i would rather use the money from his contract to sign a good player to play with the return of yao

    You are a moron. There really is no other way to put it. I watched both Stro and Randolph their whole careers at LSU. Stro could never do anything beyond dunking and rebounding. Randolph on the other hand is a special player. If I could compare him to anyone, it would be Lamar Odom. He can do a little bit of everything. Randolph always looks like he is pouting for some reason, but he is a very high energy player. If the Rockets get Randolph I would be ecstatic.

    By the way, if you want to compare Stro to a former LSU player, look no further than Tyrus Thomas.

    While I don't agree with the name calling I do agree that Randolph is a superior player in comparison to Stro no Show.

    ...uh... here's what i dont get... Adelman says he wouldnt want to mess up chemistry by throwin Tmac 20-25+ minutes... wouldn't we expect to trade for someone (or multiple people) that would cover at least 20+ minutes
    ... sounds like bs to me... ;)
    Hope we get someone good! :)
