    I'd be snowed if we gave up Nachbar. That's crossing the line.

    man Boki better not be in this trade, I want him to stay in Houston big time, I hope the finalization is because of gaines and I swear Boki better not be included in this deal. We'd be trading away too much then, I think its a lot as it is right now, but trading away some good quality younger players in francis and mobley and a very decent big man esp for the east in cato as is. for petes sakes keep boki out of this trade unless you get, t-mac, gooden,gaines and declerq back but dont trade away most of our good younger talent away for oldies (cept for tmac of course )

    If you look at the link again closely you will realize that this is just Taliban propaganda.

    Ive heard Nachbar mentioned a couple times, but if he has to go he has to go. It would be a shame though I was hoping playing time in the playoffs would give him more confidence. Hopefully trading him wont come back and bite us in the ass. Hopefully we will get gaines if they get nachbar, both lottery bust so far with upside still.

    I thought this was also an interesting bit from the article....from Charlotte's coach and gm, discussing the expansion draft and how it affects our trade:

    Said Bickerstaff: "We have been in conversations with the Magic, and we're good listeners and good facilitators. We have to make a decision not to do anything that's vindictive, but to do something we can derive some benefit from."

    A terrible attempt at a joke that just didn't work out. My apologies.

    Man, Tracy McGrady looks good on the list for us. But the rest is crap. Why couldn't they give up Gooden or Gaines?

    Why in the hell CD and Les would accept this?

    Sure, but don't trade him if you don't have to. I have half a hunch that one of the reasons Pike was traded was because Boki is showing something, and we'd rather have a decent backup PG than a 3rd string SG in Pike.

    There may be someting to this.

    It seems the Rockets are interested in Reece Gaines for some reason. If the Magic insist on getting Nachbar, then I can understand why. why? Because they would want the Magic to include Reece Gaines(who is in the E-draft) in the package as compensation for having to give up Nachbar.

    Despite the promise Reece Gaines holds, it does not compare to that of Bostjan Nachbar -- IMO.

    WTF are both GMs on crack?!?!

    What's so hard about SF + Cuttino + Taylor???

    No way will Houston come out on top if it's Cato AND Nachbar.

    I hate speculation!
