[REAL GM] Insider proposed Rockets deal

I should have seen that coming...OF COURSE #1 is a dunk on Yao.

 

Imagine if we could then send Battier over to Orlando for Gortat (1-for-1, benefits both teams). We'd have a really well-balanced squad with no areas needing improvement IMO.

 

Man, Rockets sure do like Arizona players haha

 

if we made this offer, why has it not been news yet?

 

Not to be picking nits but Johnson stayed with Atlanta

 

Because its Houston but I think it was just a dude asking people how that deal sounds to other people

 

Iguodala is a good player. If there is a inkling of truth to this, he has been quantified by the rockets, meaning he is of more value to the rockets than ariza considering what we would be giving up.

 

Dude, Ariza didn't even get the chance to play with Yao yet. Oh well... :grin:

 

switch smith for lou williams. :grin:

 

I will do it for Iguodala ,I want to see him play with Yao.

 

Battier, Jeffries, Hill and 2012 pick for Iggy and Speights.

 

The trade makes sense for both teams.

Jrue Holiday
Evan Turner
Trevor Ariza
Elton Brand
Spencer Hawes
---------------------
Mareese Speights
Jordan Hill
Louis Williams
Thaddeus Young


THAT IS DEEP!

Aaron Brooks
Kevin Martin
Andre Iguodala
Luis Scola
Yao Ming
---------------------
Kyle Lowry
Chase Budinger
Patrick Patterson
Shane Battier
Chuck Hayes

THAT IS DEEP!

 

IF this trade proposal is true DM should accept it in a heartbeat. Fact is Iggy is the swingman equivalent of Bosh, a near-max guy making max money. Iggy is basically a souped-up version of Ariza-elite defender, freak athlete, really good finisher on the break. Unlike Ariza though, Iggy has decent ball-handling skills and can create a little bit for others. With Martin, Brooks and Iggy as our backcourt we can run even PHX out of the building. On the other hand Martin and Brooks can provide the spacing Yao needs in the halfcourt, while Iggy can lock up the other team's best player and do some drive and kicks.

 

THAT'S WHAT SHE TOLD ME!!!!!

Sorry I had to do it

 

don't think morey can to get him here. if he does it'll be the steal of the summer. Iggy's got game but he has that swagger that this team could really use. if we can't get him I really really hope we get Gerald Wallace. pipedream i know

 

Iggy tippin on 44s again?

 

lol I was thinking that too.

 

Throw in a first round rockets draft pick + trade exception of Landry for Iggy, Speights and Smith ... only when Miller can't resist the Miami Heat call
Maybe sign Finley to vet min. (But, I think he'll be back with Celtics or maybe signs with the Heat)

PG: Brooks/Lowry/Smith (?)
SG: Martin/Bud/Finley
SF: Iggy/Battier/Taylor (?)
PF: Scola/Patterson/Johnson (?)
C: Yao/Speights/Smith

Maybe asking a Sixers second round pick in return, in the package for Iggy ...

 

I like the souped-up version of Trevor Ariza comparisons, but I would compare him to a middle-class (probably lower-middle class) man's Lebron James.

 

he'd put our fastbreak on hyper-drive if he landed here.
