T-Mac to Cavs??? (trade idea)

There has been talk of this previously... just random rumors last year, and some over the summer...one earlier this year.

I know that McGrady doesnt play much, and is always hurt... but if he ever gets healthy ????? he is still a top-15 talent. The question is whether he will ever be healthy again.

With that in-mind, I came-up with a trade that the Rockets may want to do:

Wally Szczerbiak and Sasha Pavlovic + 2009 2nd round pick (From chicago..so it's high)
for
McGrady

If McGrady ever played, this would be a great deal for the Cavaliers... but he almost never does play.

Wally give you a SG who can play PF in a small line-up, is one of the top shooters in league history, and has a large expiring contract. Sasha is a SG/SF who is an excellent defender and above-average 3pt shooter (35% for career), plus he is young, and his contract is not guaranteed past this year.

For the Cavs, it may be worth it to gamble on T-Mac...and let him rest for a couple months, and see if he can be a help in the playoffs.

Let me know what you guys think.

It wasn't even a rumor to begin with. It was actually proposed by a Chicago journalist.
And as much as McGrady regressed, there's absolutely no reason for us to take two bad players.

We do this in a second.
Can we also have Ben Wallace for Yao and a future 1st?

OMG! We get Szczerbiak AND Pavlovic???

How can we NOT make this deal?

If there was a way that we could get Tarence Kinsey too, I'd probably soil myself.

No offense, but this is just stupid. How about something like Battier, Scola, filler, and a 2nd rounder for Lebron. You get 2 starters for one. 2 is greater than 1 right? No you say...yeah I thought so.
