    Cross Theo Ratliff off the list.

    FREE AGENCY: Rockets won't sign Ratliff
    Theo Ratliff | 76ers
    The Philadelphia Inquirer reports the Rockets have spoken to Theo Ratliff's agent but will not sign the veteran backup center.

    You call that fair?? This is just download dumb and stupid. Battier and Lowry are 2 most lethal pitbulls we have and you want to give them away for nothing? Who the hell is Okfur, he sucks.

    What about Omer Asik?


    Trade 2010 2nd and Budinger (Chicago needs another offensive minded swing w/Gordon apparently headed to Detroit) for rights to Omer Asik.

    DO IT! DO IT! Seriously, not bad but I would hope we can avoid using Shane on this deal because my fingers are still crossed we can use him to get Fernandez/Outlaw out of Portland. Okafer, Fernandez and Outlaw in Rox uniforms would make me CRY like a little girl.

    Ajinca sucks he's just another tall guy and Okafor is very overpaid.

    Having kept up with few teams but the Rockets, how has Okafor done with Charlotte since being drafted?

    Battier + Barry + Cook for Ilkauskas

    Brooks for Rudy Fernandez

    Iverson for 1yr. M.L.E. deal


    I think a Ilkauskas + Scola + Ariza + Fernandez + Iverson line-up still gets you playoffs this season. and we got more cap to play next summer as Ilkauskas, T-Mac, Iverson, Scola, Lowry, White all comes off the book next year.

    trade Scola and fillers for Camby..... get Oberto for little money... and we're set. Landry is more atletic and young and can make a better combo with those veterans.

    Does anyone else find it out that Morey isn't really pursuing the centers that are a free agent? If Yao's foot is as bad as it appears that seems it would the main focus of the off-season plans.

    Well no centers are really avilable via free agency except for Rasho types....A trade opens up more possiblities but who is wiling to part with a big man when there so hard to find. I've been pushing for Okafor in some sort of deal with either Landry or Shane + Fillers but darn contract is huge.

    Sorry but I highly disagree. Scola is practically the only shot creator on our team next season. We should keep him if we want to watch any kind of entertaining basketball. If we're going to make a trade it better be for a difference maker. Camby and Oberto are far from difference makers.

    This guy single handedly won my fantasy league last season. Solid as a rock. Not bad for the 77th pick, huh? :p
