    Yes, a true PG and a bruising PF is what Yao needs to win. Yao needs someone to feed and someone to bang. I mean... bang with the other big bodies underneath the glass... the backboard...

    He needs Otis Thorpe Reincarnate.

    We'd be lucky to get this trade (Yes, I know this is some what unrealistic with Mil. giving up 2 prospects and a few role players)

    Tracy McGrady
    Shane Battier
    Mike James
    Luther Head

    For

    Mo Williams (Good PG with a nice shooting stroke)
    Charlie V (Strong forward, prospect)
    Yi Jianlian ( Prospect with good range)
    Bobby Simmons (Bad contract)
    Desmond Mason (Somewhat good role player)

    You can not win a championship with Yao he is not capable of winning a championship on his own. You cannot surround him with role players and ask him to carry the team ala Tmac when Yao was out Im sorry. He needs another star beside him. I mean cmon he gotten taken out of the Utah series by Okur which we all know is all world defensive player. If we do trade tmac we need another scorer. You guys are kidding yourself if you think you can build around Yao Ming

    That was the Gayest trade ever. I think CD looked at that one and said... wow, I need to retire...

    You really think that Milwaukee went through all that trouble just to give up Yi in less than a season? They would also stand to lose a lot at the PG position. Total Pipe dream. I do agree that Yi and Mo would complement Yao extremely well. I think Yao would accelerate Yi's progress based on the fact that he would be able to communicate with him better than anyone else.

    All your negative attitudes are terrible. I cant wait once this team gets better under Adelmans systems picks up their shooting percentages and all of you hates jump back on the bandwagon. Watch when T-Mac has one good game you guys will all be crawling back to him.

    I really like the trade with Orlando. It makes us extremely deep and fixes our shooting woes.

    I'd trade him for a sack of jelly beans.......his salray is keeping us down, we need a real supporting cast behing Yao.....

    BAD:
    James....one season king
    Bonzi.....can't play consistently…takes some shady shots.
    Alston…..can’t shoot straight.
    Head…..which position does he play?
    Brooks….I’m taller than this dude and probably can play better D.
    Francis….. 5 years ago he was The Franchise
    Mutumbo….we all know this guy’s age…or not…..
    Snyder…..he’s got Swift’s I.Q.
    Hayes…..if he only was bigger, stronger…would complement Yao well.

    Good:
    Scola…..One guy I’m not going to complain about, he’s getting better….

    Yao…….he’s still adjusting to Adelman’s system, I knew before the season started he’s probably going to have the biggest learning curve.

    Trading T-Mac for a usefull player and a bunch of expiring and 2 years contracts could be great as this year and the next will have some of the best as a FA.

    TMac's trade value has dropped so much due to his mileage/injuries, there is no point in trading him. I'd be shopping Battier first. We need to get Battier's contract off the books for the summer of 2010 when LeBron and DWade are unrestricted FAs.

    I'd call up Sacramento and beg them to send us Artest for Battier and Francis or Battier and Bonzi.
