Just saw this on another web site, and it was part of a whole mock draft NOT made by a Rockets fan, so maybe a little less biased, but it does seem too weighted in our favour... Rocks trade :13th pick, K.Cato (!!), D. Langhi, C. Rogers to Detroit for # 9( Battier!!), and swallow C. Williamson's contract... Any thoughts? ------------------
I'd take it, cut bait,dead weight & get Battier AND only give up #13? sweeeeeeeeet....but I dunno how likely it is....is Detroit even remotely interested? ------------------ C-son * * *
Rogers is a FA, can't trade him. Maybe we throw in pick #23 instead if its true. Who would we take at 9 though, Battier IMO is top 8, so it would have to be Johnson or Diop. ------------------ Who needs teachers? I can learn my own self. DieHard Mock Time
The deal was predicated upon Battier being there for #9...I DO agree that adding # 23 makes it more plausible... ------------------
I'd make the trade if you take Langhi out and insert the number 23. I don't think that there is any way Battier makes it past the Cavs at 8, he will probably be picked by the Nets at 7. Anyone know what Corliss Williamson's contract is? ------------------
I wouldn't do the trade because Langhi is going to be real good and we don't know if Battier will be there at 9. I think that if the Clippers take Curry, then the Bulls will select Griffin for us and we will give them who we draft at 13,18, and 23. If not a combo of these picks. ------------------ Stevierebel
I'd do a whole lot more than just eat Williamson's contract to make that deal happen. Just as long as we get rid of Kelvin CATOstrophe. ------------------
