    Don't be ridiculous. Whether you find out about a trade now or later tonight or in the morning should not affect your life either way.

    If the 76ers are just dying to get some value for Evan Turner then we could send them Asik for Turner and the 2 Cav's 2nd rounders.

    then

    Transfer the 2 Cav's 2nd rounders plus one of our 1st rounders along with JLin to Boston for Rondo.

    I'm having a hard time believing the Celtics would ever do that.

    Rockets get Turner / Rondo
    76ers get Asik
    Celtics get JLine two 2nd round picks and one 1st round pick

    Why wouldn't you own the original xbox? What else would you play GTA on if you wanted to get in a gang war?

    Lightweight fan.

    I could understand the Celtics not wanting to just give Rondo away but they are basically just holding him hostage at this point. They will waste a couple of his prime years no one rebuilds that fast. Maybe if they were a .500 team in the West you could say they are 1 or 2 pieces away, but they are sub .500 in the Eastern Conference, there are not enough picks in the world for that.

    What are you talking about? They've all contributed. Oilepere is the only insider non-contributor at this point.

    That guy faked his death. On the internet. :eek: So believable.

    Eh, I think Rondo is similar to both (combining their best qualities). Similar to Bev defensively, Jeremy offensively and a better playmaker than both. I'd rather keep Bev as he's a better asset, better contract, a better spot up shooter (a must for this team) and I like having a bulldog on the floor at all times to keep the intensity/energy up.

    I'd stagger the minutes resting Rondo early so Bev can get some burn with the starters and Harden can be the primary ballhandler (similar to the success we have now). Then when Dwight/Harden sit, bring Rondo back to play WITH Bev (and Asik) as a defensive line-up to slow other teams down. Then up the tempo and close the half with Rondo/Harden/Pasons/Jones/Howard. Do the same in the second half.

    So referring to the recent origins of the Millsap tree rumors.

    All our Rockets insiders are part of an elite and appreicated family and as Daniel Tosh would say, "and for that, we thank you."

    Earl Clark (SF)
    2013-2014 $4,250,000
    2014-2015 $4,250,000 TEAM OPTION

    Hawes (center)
    2013-2014 $6,600,000

    Before hawes was traded 76ers still need to pick up salary to meet leagues requirement ,and they are still trying to trade turner. Educated guess asik is headed to 76ers to play next to noel next year.

    This also allows them to draft one of Parker or wiggins

    Michael carter Williams
    ???
    Japari Parker/wiggins
    Noel
    Asik


    That is a defensive terror with elite offensive upside

    Ultimately I don't think this one goes through.

    Morey isnt going to give up Parsons and Ainge won't take a subpar deal.

    Berger reporting that Detroit and Washington have no traction on a desired Deng trade and Phoenix is resistant to offer a first rounder for him.

    Seems the Cavs want a first rounder for Deng.
