    I just can't imagine Landry not on the Rockets.

    Morey, why? :confused: :confused:

    If so yay for Landry, the guy deserves a starting roster spot and will do well.

    I think the report meant to say "Carl's Laundry". It's the only thing that makes sense.

    KMart is injury prone. I can't help but picture him in a suit next to Yao.

    No more Landry? Oh no we luge....

    terrible trade if landry is included. at least let cbud go, not landry who has at least borderline all-star potential and that's big for a big man.

    martin is shooting 39.7% this year. that's t-mac on one leg.

    I don't like this trade one bit....Martin is an injury prone player who is streaky, not very good at defense, and who has a slowing offensive game....We can do better...way better

    Maybe he meant Lowry? Since he typed "Laundry?"

    good thinking, Landry only has 1 year left on his contract so that could be the deal if he is indeed involved.

    Components of deal: Tracy McGrady, Carl Laundry and Joey Dorsey for Kevin Martin, Kenny Thomas, Hilton Armstrong and Sergio Rodriguez,

    I wish he'd quit saying "Laundry"

    i get the feeling this trade will NOT go down. Carl Landry means too much to this team. UNLESS it is a 3-team trade and we get Jordan Hill..

    Landry's too much of an asking price for K-Mart

    That proposed Knicks deal was WAY better because of the picks/money and us not having to give up a young chip. Sure we got the better player but at what price?! Not a fan of this deal..

    ..T-Mac got hosed too, hes probably so upset right now if he ends up in Sac

    You might be right, Lets be optimistic and say we end up with Bosh or Amare but if not and Landry is dealt :(

    Sacramento will not buy out Carl Landry. Are you kidding me?

    this might be a ploy to get Walsh to losen his hold on the protection of the picks.

    a) this comment is a pretty amazing sign of the times, isn't it? Can you imagine making this statement three years ago? I mean, it's perfectly valid, and amazing to me.

    b) HOORAY!!! I have to check out the details, but I love Martin for the Rockets. Great fit

    What's the big deal, Landry is a bench player who's already hit his ceiling.

    Martin is injury prone but this team desperately needs a do-it-all dynamic scorer, especially with the system Adelman runs. Not to mention Sergio Rodriguez is an intriguing prospect.

    It's a good trade for the Rockets.

    Nooooo!

    But does everyone realize we will not be able to keep landry much longer. i mean the dude will get a 45 mil contract on any team. Would we be able to match that?

    Morey is simply thinking about the future. We are more likely to afford scola at 7 to 8 mil per year.

    Still if we're giving up Landry I hope we get something other than Kmart II
