    ...and the Hawks can giggle and hang up the phone.

    Atlanta is not trading Horford, and I'm pretty sure they'd want a lot more back if they did.

    My preferences:
    1. Love
    2. Aldridge
    3. Howard (I prefer Asik at his price tag)
    4. Jefferson
    5. Definitely not J Smith, J Smoove, not the smartest player in the league.

    Who trades a 26 year old PF/C

    1. Still improving
    2. who can hit mid range shots and Free Throws (42% from 10ft - 3 pt, career 74% FT)
    3. that is effective from the post (15% assist ratio, 16% rebound rate)
    4. scores efficiently (56% TS)
    5. can defend both wing and post players (better defensive rating, and defensive win shares than asik)
    6. Makes a flat 12 million a year for the next 3-4 years

    Who does this?? And how is this guy not good?

    Horford is not an option unless we want to move some big pieces. We can't just take any player we want from any team.

    I love how Rockets fans target a team's best player and hope to trade for them. In this case Horford or even LaMarcus Aldridge.

    On other forums there are probably fans looking to see if the Rockets will trade them James Harden for their garbage. What's your reaction that? Keep that in your mind and know that's what those teams fans think about these trade offers.

    Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh the delusional offer a bunch of our crap for a really good player trade idea. Everyone overvalues their own teams players. Why in the world would Atlanta do this? If we wanted Horford which is probably untradeable, its including either Parsons or Asik, maybe even both.
