Can't see Charlotte being able to do anything without a third team.

would have to involve albus and marv for $$ probably.

i assume rockets wanted/wants our young guys and or picks.

Dwight in our offense would be so sweet and it'd be nice to have a rim protector

its way too risky.

trade stuff for dwight. and then he nic and lee/lin leaves and we are screwed.

Me too, I want this to happen, but I don't want to be locked into a contract with him for more than 3 years including this one.

Al Jefferson, Cody Zeller, and something else would be pretty fair if Houston is ready to move on, but doesn't want to dump him for nothing.

I just don't want to trade Kemba/MKG/Nic/Frank/unprotected picks. After that, I'm down for whatever

Lee and Howard? Cliff's getting the band back together. Next we'll trade Lin for Jameer and sign Rashard Lewis with our open roster spot.

I think we are able to keep Nic, but that's why if we trade for Dwight hopefully we don't give up too many assets

Paint defense would improve but he'd wreck chemistry and be a bad influence on the kids. Please don't.

~lol~

I think Lee and Howard are best friends or something

Dwight'd better be willing to PnR tho. It's obvious he's not a back to the basket player

This is a toughy for me. Never been a fan of Dwight, but mainly it's bc of the Howard-Okafor draft and I think Howard clowned us one time through the media.

However, he presents a big man that could mesh, and would love his play in the paint. I would be weary of what we'd have to send to Houston though. If it's nothing more than Big Al + Marv + non-important filler, then it would be intriguing. A 3 month rental that I want no part of past this season would require a minimal return on our end for me to like it. I don't know that we can get that done without giving up someone like Zeller or possibly more vital.

Clifford has coached Dwight at both Orlando and LA. He seems to really like Clifford. Maybe his attitude changes, who knows. I wouldn't trade much for him besides Al and some filler. Maybe an extremely protected 1st rounder with it.

If we get Dwight it's going to be a deadline deal and only because HOU can't get a better offer.

I tend to agree, and I read "not able to find a workable deal" as "Rockets want Kemba or MKG and Charlotte isn't going to do that."

yea they definitely want MKG or Kemba or Nic or a combo of the 3.

and that is a no for charlotte.

you think? surely they want a first round pick and we are kind of balking at that... at least that's what I figure. I mean if they really think we would give up any of those 3 they are **** crazy lol
