    Yes, you are right, he played least 70 games in all his career except one.

    Sorry that I am not a Spencer Hawes Expert, and you did a good job pointing out the flaws in my statement.

    But the point is, I think Spencer Hawes could be an interesting option if we are trying to trade Asik.

    Any player compares to Asik is injury prone:

    Ryan Anderson is not the answer for this team!

    quit in trying to move our players,we have enough talents to compete,the coaching staff just doesn't know how to used it,the best thing to do is move Asik to the 2nd unit and move Casspi or Jones to start,problem solve.Asik is a very valuable piece on this team and keeping him is the way to do it.

    rather to trade for a pass-first PG

    I think the Rockets want to see Anderson play a few games before pulling the trigger. That's my guess anyway. With the injury and personal tragedy over the summer, it's hard to know where he is right now.

    Maybe true in some cases, but Omer is a player almost any GM would like to have on their roster. Morey is right to expect high value in return.

    This trade makes too much sense for both teams

    If I were going to make Asik part of a trade it would be for a good point guard for sure.

    Look at Holidays current stats and see if you still would say that. His current PER is way below averageand so are his other stats. His former team got rid of him for Michael Carter-Williams who is doing very well but is a rookie.

    Really????

    How is Omer the more valuable player? We don't have a Starting PF, We don't have a Starting PF, We don't have a starting PF. Do you understand???? McHale has almost no faith in all of our 4's he's using our backup C. He's not messing with this lineup b/c he's in love with the thought of Twin towers, he's doing it b/c he feels its our best option to Win. The Spacing is horrible, Asik has horrible hands and is virtually useless on offense, b/c of his lack of offense his man double's Dwight and when Dwight passes to open Asik he can't handle the PASS! Anderson is a legit 4, he rebounds, and is a great FT and 3 PT shooter. How many PFs can average over 40% from beyond the arc and grab 9 + boards a game, only 1! His Name is Kevin Love, Anderson is Kevin Love lite. Ryan Anderson gives Dwight spacing and negates a dbl team from the opposing PF, and if Dwight does get Doubled now he can pass it to Anderson, Parsons, and Harden. Anderson's salary cap hit is identical to Asik and wouldn't hamper us at all at signing Parsons.
