    This

    Either Lamb or a pair of the other 3 rookies should be shipped out for Dwight.

    Well I've specifically seen it in a few matched up against Cousins, Perkins and Bynum. Although he did get his numbers, they did limit his effectiveness 'offensively'.

    I've never questioned his defensive presence. He's obviously one of the most impacful players defensively in the NBA. That goes without question.

    Just saying he's not really a go to player in close games offensively. He's a notch below Yao on the offensive end IMO. Not to mention he's coming off of back surgery, and from early reports, he's still not moving much and will miss the early part of the season. So we don't even know if he's going to be the same player when he returns. Specially considering how much he relies on his athleticism..

    I like it too

    Would like a Scola type (not a power forward but a true pro's pro to help as a mentor) to round out this YOUNG team as it GROWS.

    I do think Bynum could happen for us next season in FA.

    Rebuilt in two years? WOW!

    FYI Nolan Smith is fine... was dizzy after taking the hit to the side of the head but cat scan came back normal and he's being released from the hospital.

    Our potential lottery pick next year can definently be in the top 3 if we run our current lineup out there and get rid of Martin. That leaves us with the ability to draft a Shabazz, Noel,Zeller. Toronto may even be another top 10. With that, you have many options. Draft BPA, Need (C), or trade for a superstar calliber player.

    The best idea would be to keep our rooks. I do not think Dwight would stay, so why not just play the young guys, let them develop and become the next OKC.

    Great news! And I've added a new name to my ignore list. Toothless_Texan, who found the whole incident hilarious.

    For 2013 first round, I think New Jersey had it (from Terrence Williams trade) and then they traded it to Atlanta (for Joe Johnson)?

    Surely there's some protection on that pick.

    with every game...the Rockets offer should be getting smaller and smaller...These Rooks already have chemistry...and that is really hard to teach...

    Decided to stay up to watch the game as opposed to link that are slow on my laptop.

    Heard the game was canceled after what happened to smith.
