    I like Artest and LANDRY. That'll be so unfortunate.

    Exactly. I don't like giving up Landry at all and respect Hayes's defense but it might come to that.
    Getting Josh Boone along with VC could soften the blow to some extent.
    I don't think a trade with NJ will go down in the end because the Nets won't agree to giving us anyone else of real use apart from VC. I'm not entirely sold on him either.

    Yes but no team is going to want to have him for a whole year if he isnt performing. So effectively he is taking up 3 years of opportunity under us. If he is to be trdes solely as an expireing in the 2011/2012 season, its going to be towards the trade deadline. By then, and if he isnt playing well obviously, the 2011/2012 season would also be wasted.

    Again, you are one year off.

    Carter's team option is for 2011/2012. We can cut bait before that season ever starts.

    he would be expiring 2010/2011.....so we could tade him that year not 2011/2012...so it would be a good trade for now

    You know maybe it's me but i think this is a good deal for the rockets. The rockets add VC and Boone.

    I like that proposed trade, as long as you feel like Artest isn't going to resign with us after the summer. So it comes down to Landry, Head (who we don't use) and whoever else you think we could get with the extra cap space. Won't we be over the cap anyway and limited to using the MLE until T-Mac comes off the books in 2010? If so then I say go for it....

    I would rather have TMac in the trade instead of Ron but oh well. TMac will not contribute crap to this playoff run. Only the drama will he continue to produce. I hope he doesn't play in the playoffs. I am just had enough of TMac being Grady.

    Artest for Vince figgin Carter? Hell NOOOOOOOOO!!!

    I'm pissed. Why landing another famous loser when you already have one? Can't believe some of you are excited about the trade. You're not fans...You are wannabee...Vince Carter is simply a guy who shoots balls at his pleasure and he doesn't play D. He's a data-brusher. He enjoys holding the ball so he would not get involved in RA's system. And he is mentally soft too...

    Ron Ron at least played all-heartedly anytime on the court. He might not be a smart guy but he provides defense. And he is tough.

    Ron >>>>>> VC. And you wonna throw Landry in that deal? Idiot...

    Sad Morey is a nice guy but he dunno basketball...

    Defense? I didn't know the Rockets still played defense. I would much rather have Carter over Artest at this point. I know Artest plays hard and all that, but what difference does that make when its not actually producing a better team. Ill take my chance with Vince. I don't see how you pass up a deal like the rumored one if you are Houston.
