We can think of who we can trade for him later...but the Rockets are trading TMac and getting Tayshaun and Billups in return man.
Tayshaun and Landry are good defenders at the 3 as is. So why would the Rockets require Battier's help?
He's no nutcase, he's a smart player. And for us, it will be a win-win situation.
Now...who can we offer up for him realistically?
No Walton/Radman deals allowed haha..

lol. No way a Tmac/Billups+Prince deal goes down.
Det gets ripped sick here. I doubt they'll implode that team just yet.

its funny cuz yao is the only reason for the rockets failure the last 3 seasons due to injury and yet they wish to trade tmac (who has been playin nearly mvp basketball) instead of yao?

Detroit would be crazy to make that trade.
Billups/Prince for TMAC?
No way Dumars falls for something like that.
I can see them trying to move Rasheed though.
