    We want people that play with heart... Noah
    We want a big in the middle that can play D... Noah
    We want someone over 6'7... Noah
    We want someone who can play behind OR on side of Yao... Noah
    We want intensity... Noah
    We want people with energy... Noah

    I dont understand how people DO NOT like Noah. Because he plays and enjoys it? Because he plays with energy? Because he yells? He is obviously no cancer, because Chicago doesnt want to part with him.

    For the people that do not want him, I guess he's apart of the list of the guys you hate, unless he's on your team.. Because I garuntee you would love him

    I know! It is ridiculous...

    Plus we have a guy who yells everytime he goes to the basket in Landry, and no one minds him..

    Noah would be perfect.

    I hated him at Florida and i'll hate him anywhere he goes!
    Btw, not saying Hinrich would fix anything, just like the way he plays and one day would like him on the Rockets!

    Well, i guess he wouldn't "hurt" us but the fact of the matter is it won't happen because Chi loves him! And i think Scola is a better player anyway, and we can't get Noah and keep Scola! Scola is one of our most valuable players and will thrive if he has a star (Iggy) in the back court to help him out!

    Thats the thing, we have 2 big problems

    1. Lack of players who can create for themselves and others on offense
    2. Other teams have layup drills against us

    Personally i think #2 is a bigger problem

    I don't think many are opposed to getting Noah(or maybe they are). Nonetheless, it doesn't appear Noah is on the market. If he's not on the market and they're not willing to trade him, what are you going to do? Force a trade? That's only possible in NBA2k10. :)

    Them trading Noah is like the Rockets trading Landry or Brooks + fillers for J.O'neal.

    It's not so much that we don't want him, but rather he doesn't represent a significant upgrade. Yes, Noah is definitely a Morey type of a guy. But is he really that much of an upgrade over Scola for the next 2-3 years?

    Getting Noah, unless it only requires T-Mac's expiring contract, is more or less a lateral move. It's the Bosh/Butler/Martin/Iggy types give us something we don't have... a dynamic scorer.

    it's not that he wouldn't help us, it's the fact that CHICAGO WILL NOT TRADE HIM FOR TMAC!!! get it?

    Who can be sure? Uttering lines like that is the best way for Chicago management to get the Rockets to up their offer with some young talent. It is hard to get any McGrady trade to work with his inflated numbers. All we can toss in to sweeten the appeal is guys on early contracts (Landry, Brooks, Taylor or Budinger) and folks are really loathe to do that.

    Here is one for you.

    Houston: Noah, Beasley, Haslem, Thomas, Hinrich

    Miami: McGrady, Miller, Jones

    Chicago: Scola, Lowry, O'Neal, Cook


    Do you do this deal? I figure at the expense of Scola and Lowry you'd be basically replacing them with Noah, Beasley and Hinrich. Thomas and Haslem come off the books. I don't think they can take back salary and expect to keep Scola and Lowry.

    Miami and Chicago look to dump salary so they dump it with a prospect.

    This i can see Houston doing.

    Why does Miami do this?
    They are basically trading Beasly, Cook and Haslem for Jones and Miller

    Why?
