    Yes, clearly based on extrapolating the last 3 hours we will finish the season 44-0 and then sweep all four rounds of the playoffs. It would be a wise move.

    What, you want more reason than that to trade him??? Ummm...s**t, I've got nothing. Ask the OP.

    If it means getting a good center, then yes.

    If we can get a good center for Brooks instead, then trade him.

    We have enough guards. I think right now the Rockets would hesitate the most to send Martin away, but if the right deal comes then I wouldn't mind Martin being traded.

    Personally I think we won because Miller didn't play XD

    He scores that many points because he's efficient. He doesn't just jack up shots and miss 70% of them. If he doesn't make it, he has a good chance of getting to the line. Yeah, defensively, I (don't even play basketball very much) could probably get by him. But look at our game right now. Take him out, we're not going to get many wins...and as for Bud, he doesn't defend either but Kmart is more efficient so no way I would give more minutes to Bud.

    Yes combine him with Scola for

    Granger, Jeff Foster, Mcroberts, and a first round pick

    both foster and mcroberts expire after this year so those guys along with battier jefferies and yao should give us a grip load of cash... i know AB is expiring and i know we sign lowry for a while so idk about that situation...

    but Granger/PP/Hill/Twill/Lowry is a pretty decent core I think that puts us at an allstar pg or C away from championship contenders

    Can we trade you to another forum?
    Hell, a pack of peanuts and a bottle of Sprite will do.

    Obviously not, along with Scola and Brooks, he is our offense.

    Yeah forget that guy. Whats 45 points in an NBA game?

    I mean the real question is "What has he done for me lately?"

    Dude didn't even play tonight. Ship him out for a guy who played tonight.

    If we land Melo then it's a no-brainer.

    You sure about this? He has the remainder of a 48 mil deal and is his lack of athleticism is really showing this year. He is having lots of trouble defensively, and it seems like most fours around the league have figured out how to defend his interior post moves. I'd be all for trading him

    Trade Scola and Brooks. PatPat ready to play Scola's role . This team needs defense.
