    I saw the end of Heat_Bobcats game in the regular season and that was Walter's time. He was amazing. He made probably three 3s in a row and the Bobcats win. I really like guys like him, so we should think about him.

    He is a good defender, isn't he?

    walter is definaetly the type of player the rockets need, if we had a guy like that playing juwans minutes we would end up in the western finals book it, he would take so much advantage of yao and tmacs doubles. Walter or anyone like him is what the rockets need, someone with consistency and walter showed that at the end of the year.

    His shooting is really good. But 5.6 boards in ~40min playing time, and several games with 1 board... I don't know.

    Damon Jones is NOT a good ball handler or passer. Having him and Luther on the same team is too redundant. Cleveland was so desperate for PG help that they benched their starter (Snow) and gave all his minutes to Larry Hughes. If Damon Jones can't crack the rotation in that situation, what makes you think he sniff the rotation in Houston?

    ...and all Marshall does is stand around and shoot three's.

    I hate this idea. Sorry man, i've been guilty of some bad trade ideas in the past too, but this is pretty bad.

    Are you nuts? Look at his last 10 games. That's the real indicator of how this guy plays when the coach gives him the green light to score and play. He could be our Mehmet Okur. He can camp out at the 3 point line and shoot or drive into the lane.

    I disagree dude... Damon Jones protects the ball really well, he's routinely among the league leaders in asst/to ratio. The reason he hasn't cracked the rotation in Cleveland is because they don't play inside out. He is a deadly-3-pt shooter and protects the ball. Which works for me because T-Mac handles the ball a lot too, so this guy is perfect for parking on the perimeter and he can drain them all day.

    Donyell Marshall hits 3's, yes, and has shown he can hit them at a decent percenteage. What you ignored is that he's a very good rebounder and a decent shotblocker as well. DEFINITELY an upgrade over Juwan IMO.
