    If Berger's source is good. This doesn't sound too good.

    And I believe we would have a shot at Wade. That is why I am hesitant. Remember what Wade did last time he had a good big man?

    How about Kaman goes to Minnesota to replace Al Jefferson, and the Rockets recieve Mike Miller and Baron Davis?

    As long as we're not giving up Artest...as long as we're not trading Artest for him i'm down with it.

    Of course as long as we're not trading Yao/Scola/Brooks also...but that is a given.

    IF Baron Davis is motivated and healthy, he's a STUD! He's only 2 seasons removed from single handedly eliminating the 1 seed Mavericks in the playoffs(one of my favorite upsets EVER!). That's more than you can say for McGrady!

    This is a risk worth taking if you are the rockets. Davis is an elite point guard, and a much bigger upgrade on alston than hinrich.

    So would I.

    Davis/Alston?/Brooks? (assuming one of them gets included)
    Artest/Wafer/Barry
    Battier/Miller
    Scola/Landry/Hayes
    Yao/Deke/Dorsey

    That would be absolutely amazing.

    I realize we are mortgaging our future, but I think we have to go for it now.
    this could put us over the top this year.

    Three ways trade:

    Houston trade Tmac, Head, trade exception for Baron Davis, Kaman, and 2nd round pick
    Houston trade Kaman, Brooks (or Wafer), 1st round (houston), 2nd round(clipper) for Rip Hamilton

    Clipper trade Baron, Kaman, 2nd round pick for Tmac, Head, and trade exception

    Piston trade Rip Hamilton for Kaman, Brooks (or Wafer), Houston 1st round, and Clipper 2nd round

    Houston lineup:

    Baron/Alston
    Rip/Barry
    Battier/Artest
    Scolar/Landry
    Yao/Mutombo

    Blazers might get much better and get Carter while only giving up role players and expirings...WE HAVE TO MAKE THIS DEAL.

    I think Miller would be the more realistic option for Kaman if this trade were to go down and we were to trade him. Then again, I havent checked salaries for either players.

    Also...ESPN hasn't reported it yet so there is chance. ESPN never gets hold of the big trades. Like How Pau to the Lakers just happened out of nowhere? They also didn't expect the Chandler trade, ESPN is still saying the Rockets are not trading Tmac.

    How how I would love that. But what 1st would that be 2011? We prob could take out the first or our young player. Not too sure.

    I would be ecstatic if this were to happen. Baron Davis is one of those elite BIG PGs. Come play off time this guy will explode.

    Imagine seeing Baron posterize Kirilenko again in a Rockets uniform in the first round.
