will you be upset if there is no major trade before the deadline?

Not upset, just slightly dissapointed, because to me, it would mean there was no deal out there that Morey thought was work breaking up the core for......and I would be willing to role with that next year and a healthy Yao.

They are really unwatchable at times. I would prefer for them to get that one elite piece which we can pair up with Yao. However, that does not look likely..they definitely need to make a trade right now whether that involves Mac or not.

 

I knew it was going to be a long season this year with Tmac and Yao both out, but damn. I'm hoping for some sort of change. This team can improve. I hope Morey finds the right pieces unlike Trevor Ariza.

 

This. If no trade happens, it wont be for lack of trying on Morey's part. We just let T-Mac walk this summer and have a few bucks to re-sign our guys and see if we can bring in a solid 2 guard.

 

"No trade" is the most possible ending. I expected that. It will only mean that there is no stupid GM or stupid team that we can take advantage of. Slightly upset.

 

id prefer a no-trade unless it's for a legit superstar (aka cp3) so that we can be under the cap when we resign everyone

 

All of the above.

 

I wouldn't be overall disappointed because the big picture is way more important then the present and if a trade is made that makes the team good now but handicaps the squad later on thats not good. I will say that I am 95 % certain something will happen so if nothing happens it will be a let down.

 

All are somewhat true, but I won't be really upset about not making a move. I want a move, but I prefer no move rather then make a trade that doesn't land us a star, or young players.

 

No, I won't be mad, because that means that DM was offered crap deals full of crap contracts and was smart enough to turn them down.

As long as TMac never dons a Rox uni again, I will be VERY happy

 

in an alternate universe, tracy would be sent to the d-league to prove his worth and regain confidence and come back a better player than he has been in the last 5-6 years. but in this universe, right here right now, we need to get rid of him. he doesn't want any part of what we have going on and the feeling from the organization is mutual so lets hope DM will pull out his magic stick and get to work on a blockbuster trade that would make everyone happy. i like the okafor/stojakavic or the anthony/ellis trade idea the most. we could use either of the two packages immediately.

 

What would happen if we never signed Trevor Ariza?

Chase would be starting and might be a dark horse for ROTY

The whole club would get more efficient on offense

We would suffer a bit on defense but not too much

In fact, i'd venture to say we'd win 2-3 more games with Budinger starting.

 

incorrect

 

Agree with this and DD's take completely.

 

I don't see any major trades. I would love to have Iggy, but I just don't think the 76ers and Rockets can find a deal that will work for both teams.

I see Cook being sent out with a little cash if the Rockets can't make a bigger deal that sheds some salary this year.

 

Yes but i am just a bit desperate for the team to have some success.

 

You only make a good trade, not a major trade, a bad major trade could be a disaster, so I do not think Morey will do it, so I vote the number 4.

 

I believe that if we aren't going to play McGrady we should move him because if we don't get anything good for him (or at least better than nothing) then I consider that a waste.
