It's not like Boozer plays good defense and does other things besides score and rebound. If Martin and Yao return to their old form, this team has enough scoring to get far in the playoffs. I would probably spend the off-season getting defensive specialists, a true pg, and more role players like Shane Battier.


Your avatar is cracking me up. :lol:

Lowry is nothing like Rafer. He plays great defense and he has a brain. Plus he won't sit outside and brick three after three. He's great at drawing contact and finishing and his mid range game isn't terrible. I'd like Kyle to start over AB next year assuming the Rockets don't have Chris Paul.

I wouldn't be surprised if Morey's plan is to try and trade him in a sign and trade deal this summer for one of the big name PFs. Lowry as a starter can easily produce 14/4/8 with solid defense, he's basically a Rondo, who plays better defense, but isn't as good of a finisher around the rim (and that's not a knock at him, considering Rondo is a fantastic finisher).

THIS...

As much as I love AB, I think he is the most likely to be traded in any deal that Rockets make to bring in a marquee FA. I'm thinking Bosh as well. Trade Hill, JJ, Hill, & whoever we draft this year,and future picks if we must for CB4

Re-sign Lowry and if possible Scola as well.

PG: Lowry, (FA)
SG: Martin, Budinger, Taylor
C: Yao, Hayes, Andersen
SF: Ariza, Battier
PF: Bosh, Scola

^ Thing about that is, you can't resign Scola, because he'd likely be included in the sign and trade while he'd be used to make the salaries work for both ends. Scola, Battier or JJ (both expiring, their pick, I'd prefer to keep Shane, but I'm guessing they'd want Shane), 2010 first (whoever we pick), Brooks, and possibly something else...most likely cash.

I'm gonna have to disagree Baller. Cause Scola would have to agree to sign a new contract and be traded to Toronto. I doubt Luis would have to want to go to Toronto. I think the chances of that is highly unlikely.

That's what I mean too. I highly doubt he agrees to any contract with Toronto, but the thing is if he wants the maximum amount of money offered, only the Rockets can offer that, so if Scola really wants to hit the banks, he'd come straight to us first...but it all just depends on if he agrees to a sign and trade to Toronto.
