    You have never seen him play in the NBA ever. Anyone that saw Navarro play in the NBA would never call him "just another guy".

    You never saw him play before.

    It's going to be a late first rounder not exactly a back breaker.

    Okay, if we're giving up a draft pick, then I don't like this deal at all.

    I don't think much of it right now, but giving up a draft pick is way too much.

    First rounder would be from Houston. This could improve their chances at Nene. Get $3 mill back in cap room.

    :(

    Is this is true, the Hornets landed a huge deal! Odom, Martin and Scola are all starters in this league. Plus draft pick? They negotiated well!

    We essentially traded for Chris Paul to the Lakers for them. They gave up Odom to them and Gasol to us. Thats it. We gave up Martin, Scola, Draft picks to New Orlens just so we could get Gasol.

    On the contrary, it actually did the exact opposite. Rockets got the short end of the stick IMO -- Gasol is already 33 y/o and we've given up our two best scoring options in Scola and Martin. We cannot expect to contend without adding another star player to complement Gasol, and quite honestly I am not sure who the Rockets have in mind.

    Don't like it. We give up 2 starters for a player that is known for taking games off. We lose our back up pg. We get stronger at 1 spot on the floor and weaker at 3.
