    Who are we going to get?

    Who is coming here to a borderline playoff team, most likely not on a max deal, and with a Center returning from a potential career-ending injury?

    How about we somehow give up either Landry or Scola for David LEE?

    at the rate we're playing, we need ANY help we can get

    maybe not to make it to the playoffs but to be respectable and have some pride left

    that Miami game should never happen again

    The Rockets are in the driver's seat. There is no way they should be giving up this year's number one in this deal. They have assets and cash they can throw Washington's way. I would hope to keep Chase, but he is expendable.

    In the article, it says a team is going to have to surrender a draft pick, and by looking at this proposal, since we are getting the better part of the deal I think it will be us.

    And also, I keep reading how Haywood would be a nice back up to Yao next year, I just you people don't relize that he's a free agent next season, freee to sign with whoever he wants. And with the season he is having, they will most likely give him the full mid level exp. and a starting gig. I realize he would get his bird rights, but we would have to worry about resigning Scola and Lowry.

    I agree, i'd take my chances with Dorsey backing Yao before Haywood.

    I'm believed these articles are all propaganda.

    Some think pulling the plug on Tracy was dumb, evidently not dumb enough if the move made sence.

    Player 2009/10 2010/11

    Caron Butler $9,780,970 $10,561,960

    Brendan Haywood $6,000,000 $0


    Do the Rockets have to move anybody else since 23 mil is on his way out or do the knicks send us another player??? I do not understand the numbers of the game please explain

    Uh, huh - so from whom do the rest of the $s come? James and Stevenson...to? Draft picks in which direction? Extra $s from Knicks, Nate and?

    David Aldridge said last nite that Butler would be traded (to Rox or Mavs) BEFORE ASG.

    Oof. I just noticed Butler's PER is 13.8. Man what a buzzkill. Is there any way we can still attempt to get Kevin Martin? The Kings have been sucking bad since he's returned after all. Count me out on this deal. Ugh.

    no iggy and Dalembert? I don't mind this trade but both guys are older, therefore any chance for a ring we make has to be swift.
