Well, I don't think Battier-Brooks offer is better than Chandler-Nate..

People do not understand Curry's reason for wanting to be a ballerina. He wanted to be able to contort his body to be able to fit in the fridge.

See how both were turned down, its because they both are not very good. We really dont need to grade which one was better because they both fail.

considering our needs both trades don't make any sense but if I had to pick one offer I'd take the Rockets offer. why? because Battier is arguably the best player in the deal and Brooks ain't no bad player either. New York really has nothing to offer what we could need. seriously please stop posting that Chandler + Nate is anything we'd look for. please.

Was there a choice between Miller/Foye and Battier/Brooks to Washington for the #5? Or, did the Battier/Brooks offer occur as Rubio fell on draft night? My guess is that the Houston offer came as Rubio fell, which no one was expecting until it happened. The only error that the Washington GM made was not predicting Rubio's fall.

That's what I think too. The #5's value increased when it became ricky rubio.

I wonder if HOU is geared up for international marketing with Yao, or whether their knowledge is specific to China?
