Certainly nothing being posted here. Morey wants a superstar, but he's not giving up his entire team for it. People have to remember it's not only just a 1 year rental of a injured Dwight - but a rental also hinges on the Rockets being able to impress Dwight. They're not doing that giving away everything to get him.

A realistic trade for a rental is the Toronto pick, plus one other first and then K-Mart and 2 young guys (1 if it's Lamb). If Houston is looking for more 1sts from Scola then it's likely because Henny doesn't like the young guys like White/Jones (makes sense considering all the PFs already) and would rather have his own pick

So something like

Toronto 1st Round Pick
2015 Houston 1st Round Pick
Kevin Martin
Jeremy Lamb

or

Toronto 1st Round Pick
2015 Houston 1st Round Pick
Jeremy Lamb
Donatas Motiejunas
Terrance Jones

in the second example you could switch Terrance Jones for another 1st rounder they get in a trade for Scola/Lee like I said

Fixed, We'll take this one.

Donatas can't be traded until August 3rd.

Damn.

Shabazz + Lamb + Noel

That would be an unbelievable start to a rebuild. Then throw in a boat load of cap space

That's the OKC way

So the best we can do is Toronto's 2013 lottery pick, Houston's 2015 1st rd pick, Lamb and Royce White while unloading J Rich, Duhon and Q Rich?

Toronto's pick is protected? or no?

Anyone up for some 2k on the PS3?

Well, I hope we trade with Houston then. I feel like if we get Bynum we'll get stuck in the same rut we are in now eventually. OKC built young and all their players want to stay and play with each other. Growing up in the NBA is a bonding experience for teammates. I think Houston is the best way to go.

Top 3 next year
Top 2 the year after
1 the year after that
Then no protection.

Or very close to that.

Best case scenario is Orlando wins the lotto and Toronto gets the #4 pick, thus having to send it to Orlando who then has 1 and 4. That is your Noel and Shabazz right there

That's what Portland was hoping for this year and their odds were a lot lower than ours would be if we were the worst team in the league next year.

Howard Beck ‏@HowardBeckNYT
Not a revelation, but worth noting: Dwight Howard would surely be a Net tomorrow, without complications, if he had just declined to opt in.

We're getting excited about dealing with Houston, next thing you know, tomorrow it's the Nets.

Life of a Magic fan. Getting trolled hourly.

At last you guys are starting to realize that the Houston deal is the right deal ! I wanted it ever since before the draft and i would be absolutely ecstatic if we pull it off now, all i want it is

Kmart
Lamb
Jones
White
Tor pick
Future picks

which was their offer on trade day, except you replace toronto pick with Lowry

hazy_01 · Post #337 » by **hazy_01** » Wed Jul 11, 2012 5:50 am

Tor pick is way better as Lowry will hurt your chances in tanking
