    Every team in the NBA puts winning before players. I guarantee you this is the truth. If you don't think it's true, then I really don't know what to tell you.

    I feel like if Houston did that it would be Odom in Dallas all over again.

    Not this again, please stop! Gasol was not going to do us any good. Now we have the flexibility to make a move so it's up to Morey to his jackpot! No excuses like ow we can go after Howard in 12-13, NO! Get it done now! Draft two good players, play them and get one or two great players through trade / free agency.

    Expect Lowry, Scola and maybe even Martin to be dealt to Orlando in the offseason.

    T-Mac for Francis,Mobley, Cato trade V2.0

    PG: Dragic
    SG: Lee/Bud
    SF: Parsons
    PF: Scola
    C: Gasol

    We'd have the whitest starting lineup ever. I say pull the trigger.

    The only problem is francis was viewed to have a higher upside than any of those rocket players you have in the deal.

    You're probably right about Lawry, but I wouldn't be so sure about Pau, maybe he just need a new motivation, also Dragič could or will become one, Scola already is close to that, I know he's capable of much more...

    The problem is, Dwight is unrestricted at the end of next season and clearly won't re-sign with Orlando. They even might not see him play for the Magic again.

    Lowry, Martin and Scola for Josh Smith and Jeff Teague or Lowry and Kevin Martin for Granger and Collison. Atlanta is going nowhere with Teague so Lowry is a upgrade, Martin gives them a scorer to pair with Joe Johnson and Scola will help them up front.Smith is a beast this season and is one of the elite PF's in the game on both ends of the floor.

    The Granger trade will help us to. Indiana wants to move Gorge to his more natural 3 position


    Dragic
    Lee
    Parsons
    Smith
    Camby

    Bench

    Teague
    Budinger
    Morris
    Patterson
    Dalembert


    or

    Dragic
    Lee
    Granger
    Scola
    Camby

    bench

    Collison
    Budinger
    Parsons
    Patterson
    Dalembert

    Exactly. Which is why a trade for him is most likely to occur during the offseason. If we can get him, that's a huge step towards landing DWill. I don't think it happens unless they come as a tandem. In other words, our negotiations with DWill will be based on acquiring Dwight through trade. Orlando is going to be motivated if Dwight hasn't agreed to sign an extension by then. Can't see them going through another season like this one, knowing that Dwight is most likely going to go where DWill or CP3 goes after his contract expires.

    Dude, I know the innertubes makes it easy to say any damn thing you want too behind a keyboard.

    Calling someone an idiot because they differ in their ideas on how to improve the Rockets is not just a FAIL, it's low rent.

    Try bringing your A Game, the one the big boys play. Name calling is not part of it.
