Time to hit the road, Jack.

We aren't going to lose enough to get a better lottery pick. We do have the chance to win enough to make the playoffs.

So many mixed messages with this team since the summer when it comes to potential trades. I for one aren't getting my hopes up about anything and wouldn't be at all surprised if nothing happens at all and our roster remains relatively unchanged for the rest of the season.

Has this team even made a trade since Thomas?

The Chandler trade.

Oh yeah. That barely counts though.

If Portland, we would get Przybilla to take Diop's place for the year, and that is $7.4 mil expiring. But the money doesn't work, so there has to be another player and likely their 1st to go along. If Houston, it would be Battier involved.

stevekylerNBA If Rockets swing and miss ion Nene, they may fall back on Gerald Wallace with Charlotte, still saying no Aaron Brooks deals... Bad decision

I really hope we don't get Aaron Brooks somehow. That would suck.

stevekylerNBA RT @HOTRODHART: Any idea who Houston may trade for Wallace? -- they are shopping Yao, Jordan Hill, Jared Jefferies and Chase Budinger.

Chase Budinger ain't bad. Jordan Hill wouldn't be a bad 4/5 backup, he could play decent minutes on this team, actually. Terrence Williams, though, is the only guy I actually want from their team. If he isn't traded then it's probably not worth it.

Maybe try and get Hill and Budinger? I don't know.

I don't think them alone is really worth it. I don't think we should trade Wallace unless we get someone who could start.

Kevin Martin for GWallace

hotrod · Post #17 » by **hotrod** » Mon Feb 21, 2011 7:49 pm

I wouldn't trade Crash for any of those guys.

Now you got my attention. Move Jax to 3 or trade him. We lose alot of rebounding though.

I can't see Jax and Martin playing on the same team, competing for the same shots.

Jax: Takes ball, holds ball, shoots at last second.
Martin: Takes ball, holds ball, shoots at last second.

There's only one ball but two "guardians of the ball". That's a problem.

Hill and T.Will would be considerably better IMO.
