    are you serious dude? there is no way they get scola, landry, or artest for a 34 year old.....do you forget they only gave up a second round pick for him? Another thing is the fact that all you have to do is add Barry in and the salaries match almost perfect so no more LT than we already have...now to your other point that didn't make much sense the Clippers are trying to dump Camby salary so it can be done....kwame brown for gasol was a much worse trade than this....artest for bobby jackson and green.....any other questions??????????????

    Rockets get:

    JaVale McGee
    Dominic McGuire

    Wizards get:

    Luther Head
    +Cash


    This trade would be amazing even though the Wizards wouldn't do it.. We would get a solid backup for Yao! Remember how the Rockets said they where amazed by that 7 footer playing for Washington.

    Luther Head, Memphis' 2nd for Thabo Sefolosha

    Assuming Thabo is available as people say, the Rockets trade a guy who can't defend or hold the ball well for an athletic, bigger PG/SG that can.

    Odom's height (in shoes): 6'10

    Battier's height (in shoes): 6'9.5

    [www.draftexpress.com - measurement history]

    Battier is a FAR FAR superior shooter to Odom - bu Odom more capable of creating his own shot (or at least he was - I haven't seen him play this season).

    The advantage Odom has is that he can play the 4, where Battier really can't.

    Love the idea of bringing in a big guy - but I'm not sold on Odom as a 3! And Battier's overall defensive value to this squad is still pretty high!

    Ok heres my idea, the pistons have been trying to get rid of sheed since the summer and the idea was out there that we might get rip and sheed for tmac, so with tmac value slightly higher after last nights game.

    Rockets trade
    Tmac
    Dorsey
    Head
    Hayes

    Pistons trade
    Sheed
    Rip

    Clippers trade
    Camby
    Jason Hart- hes just a filler for the deal

    Rockets Recieve
    Camby-2yrs/8
    Rip-2yrs/10.5
    Jason Hart-1yr/2.5

    Pistons Recieve
    Tmac-2yrs/22
    Dorsey-4yrs/1
    Head-2yrs/2-team option

    Clippers Recieve
    Sheed-1yr/13.7
    Hayes-3yrs/2

    Only team that might possibly lose out is the pistons but they want sheed gone. Either way we can always throw in a second round pick to make people happy. The trade checker number for realgm is Trade ID #4864396

    Forgot to mention head and hayes can be swapped to whatever team would most prefer them, the trade works either way

    1) Nuggets wanted to dump money (also can be seen via AI trade and buying off that other guy)

    2) Clippers are rebuilding

    3) Camby is getting older but there is quite a bit of stars in their prime if not older. Point is Camby is and has and will continue to prove him self as a strong defender.

    4) I will say this again why would any team trade a regular rotation (if not starter) for 3-4 barely rotation players (if not even).

    So seriously dude....

    People please take note, this is more realistic then a lot of head and hayes ones. semi good for all three teams.

    lol, Detroits line up by names alone (no stats no injuries) would be sick with this, Iverson, Tmac, Prince, Max, Camby

    I am sorry but that just sounds sick

    The Gerald Wallace one is the only one I can agree upon. We need a backup C also and perhaps a new PG. Luther, Rafer, Hayes, Dorsey all need to get shipped out before the trade deadline. I'll add Brooks too if theres a good deal.

    I'm not sure I'd want to give up Battier, but you have to give something good to get a player as good as Nash.

    Could Nash be the next to go?


    Houston sends Battier/Alston to Phoenix.

    Phoenix sends Nash to Houston.
