    Giving up a 1st rd pick for Terrance Williams??? HUH???

    I trust Morey but kind of a head scratcher. I'm I just not familiar with the kid?

    I don't really understand this deal unless there's more involved from the Rockets side..

    JT cut? Ish Smith cut? You'd think they'd find takers for either before they cut them.. both would be snatched up immediately.

    Rapid reaction: Ish cut. Rockets do have 15 guys on the roster right?

    He was compared to Ron Artest coming into the draft.

    Trading for Williams means Morey regrets splitting up with Artest.

    hehehehehe

    don't you get it? This is the McGrady situation all over again. He's using this trade rumor to get the Knicks off their duff on AR. If we move out one of our 2012s, the price just went up for the Knicks to get a first rounder to trade for Melo.

    Correct. You would think that they could, at the least, get a 2nd rounder for Ish? Supposedly there was a lot of interest in him..

    Either way, Budinger to the bench.

    Ish may get cut. But they can always throw a small guaranteed contract (like JT) into the deal to clear roster space.

    2012 first round for T-will? Hope it's not the Knick's pick.

    Watched him on nets first season. Quick, explosive, Courtney with more explosion but less discipline if you will. Played off bench first year, wouldn't pass to anyone, likes to take ill-advice shots. Has potential to be great, but at the same time is a headcase on the court.

    I predicted it 5-10 minutes before!

    T-Will is a great player if he keeps his cool!

    actually its a good move for the nets to get those extra pics for Melo


    question for me is it the Rockets 2012 or the Knicks 2012? at this point I hope its the Knicks probably will be the worse of the two
