Possible Sign and Trade- Gortat to Houston
Posted: Thu Jul 2, 2009 12:05 am
The Rockets are interested in Marcin Gortat being their starter, but are also well aware of the chemistry between Scola and Oberto. Oberto would be a solid back-up to Gortat and could help put the Rockets right back in the thick of the Western Conference Finals chase. The word is Orlando might consider a sign-and-trade for one of Houston's power forwards, and the Rockets have had Carl Landry and Chuck Hayes on the table at various times over the last year. Seems like something could happen there to help alleviate Houston's dire need at center.

What do you guys think?...Might be the best way to ensure that you sign him given that everyone is offering the MLE...Maybe give him 6-7 mil or add an extra year...Magic would definetly be interested in Landry
