Rox Dream Offseason

[Zubby]

Martin isn't going anywhere.........Morey had been trying to get him for a long time.
DO NOT WANT Iverson.....he's DONE, but since many still think Francis can play....others might still think Iverson can too

When did Morey ever say he has been waiting to get Martin that???? Never.

From what I remember Morey basically said Martin is a good shooter and will help put this team in the penalty quicker, Where YAO is the most dangerous player in the NBA.

If we somehow get Turner, Martin is easily expendable. I'm sure we learned are lesson from the '06 draft...


BTW I mention AI not as a player in the rotation just a player on the roster, as I would hate to see him leave the league w/o a ring.

Any interest in this?

Memphis gets: Trevor Ariza (or Shane Battier) and Chuck Hayes
Houston gets: Rudy Gay (5 years-$60M), Hamed Haddadi (serviceable center for 15 MPG) and Demarre Carroll (hustling combo forward)

Edit:
Don't think the deal works out financially. Adding Jared Jeffries to the deal works I think.

I'd say yes, don't know about other fans though.

[It_Was_Typed]

Hell, I'd take Shane Battier too (swap out Ariza).

When he got him. He said they had informed like a million times with the Kings and they always said he's not available, until this season obviously.

[Moreyball]

I'm waiting for the trade deadline next season. That's when the fire sales on top talent will happen and Morey has all the right kind of assets to make a killing.

who in particular do you have in mind?

I love the idea of Manu and Alabi being Rockets. I'm fine with not doing much.

[AI2TOHOUSTON]

Get a lineup of
Brooks/Lowry
Iggy/JT/Budinger
S-Jax/Budinger/J-smoove
J-smoove/Scola/Harris
Whiteside/Yao
Make it happen Morey even though it's kind of an immature lineup.
