boston traded erdan to cleveland for 2nd round pick
i guess morey has bad relationship with boston
i'm sure morey asked for perkins/erdan when boston is asking for battier
both are traded and not to houston

[MaxRider]

i hear the PHX pick is lottery protected
if that's the case not so good

SMH

Morey got played. Thabeet is a scrub and so is Dragic.

The first rounders do nothing. This years draft is awful.

And we give up Battier, Brooks and Ish?

[Mr. E]

I just spoke to Morey and he assures me that while he traded Aaron Brooks as a player we retain his rights as a poster.

[Aaron Brooks]

Wait, Ish got traded?

[Mr. E]

that's what the Chronicle is saying. Not sure which deal.

[Guy986]

I'm still shocked that we kept Courtney Lee of all people. I was so sure hes heading to Chicago....

[KiDdFrESh]

Damn its hard to lose Battier but I think that was smart to get value for him. Not sold on Thabeet at all but I mean he does have potential. He's 7'3'' for crying out loud so I guess he could turn out to be the "big scary black guy!" LMAO!! The important thing about this trade is that it opens minutes for TERRANCE WILLIAMS!!!!!!!!!!! He's a diamond in the rough and about to blow up with the Rockets. He SHOULD be starting. I like Bud but he aint got no defense. But he can shoot and I like to see him in more minutes.

IM SO GLAD LEE DIDNT GET TRADED!!

As for Brooks. He didn't fit off the bench and I've always favored Lowry over AB anyways. Dragic isn't turrible. He's shown flashes and is more suitable as a floor generator off the bench.

My question is... why couldn't we get Gerald Wallace?

I'm still shocked that we kept Courtney Lee of all people. I was so sure hes heading to Chicago....

That's another trade we would have gotten raped. Good thing it didn't happen because the Bulls were dumb enough not to accept a Bogans/Asik-Lee/Miller deal. Thank God.

Other deals that fell through:

B.Miller for Zaza
Speights/Kapono for Battier/?
Camby for Battier/Brooks
Brooks for 1st from POR
Brooks for Flynn

None of those trades make any sense.



I'm mad. And sad.



1337 over now.

It is. If we miss you get ours. If we make playoffs, you get Orlando's.
