    Would Philly take NO's pick for MCW? I think he'll be a good alternative to Dragic/Lawson.

    MCW + Noel for the NO pick + Tjones + taking on a bad Philly's contract

    Philly has 0 use for Noel with Embiid coming back so he is redundant. MCW really is not worth the pick by himself, too many bad habits from playing on that terrible team need to be untaught.

    Teams trying to move high-priced veterans like Prince, Andrea Bargnani (Knicks), Bass (Celtics), Kevin Martin (Timberwolves) and David Lee (Warriors) aren't likely to find any takers. All of the above, besides Lee, would then be headed for buyouts, sources say

    Speaking of the 20-33 Nuggets, they're in full-on firesale mode. Rival execs say virtually everyone is available, with Ty Lawson and Wilson Chandler (with only $2 million guaranteed next season) registering the most interest.

    We're going to pick up someone who nobody thinks we're going to get seems like it happens that way more often than not with the rockets

    Damn I wonder if Martin would resign with us if bought out. He'd be the absolute PERFECT fit next to Harden. Ty Lawson as well

    This can't be real. If so, Morey has got get over his Dragic obsession and go hard to get Noel. Noel is Larry Sanders without the baggage.

    So nothing may happen at the deadline, but the amount of players bought out and waived could get interesting. The Rockets could use players like Stephenson, Bass, or Prince.

    A NICE PG,PLS.
    What we want is that.A playmaking guard,like Reggie and Dragic,to help harden take off the pressure.

    Just throwing out a name here: Tobias Harris. Hasn't signed an extension with Orlando. Provides scoring we are looking for, and can be a stretch 4. Just an idea. Morey always gets a name no one ever talks about. He fits our needs. Why not?

    Sounds ok to me, regarding Bass. I am not sure about Stephenson. Pass on Prince, he has some utility,but we don't need him.

    Rockets need to look into Nate Robinson. You want a pg that can score, create & bring energy? Nate's that dude. Plus he shows up in the postseason
