It is a lot of good stuff listed there though, so at least we will get most of what we wanted: young talent, draft picks and an expiring. Nothing til next week though? What if the lakers make a last second offer? I don't see how it could get next to that.


Unless the lakers are doing:
Bynum
Gasol
Mcroberts
Blake

For

Howard
Turk
Baby
Jrich
Duhon

Then they would be wasting their time



I'd still rather have the Houston deal. I want a full rebuild.

Someone convince me that it's a good idea to trade BBD to the Rockets. Please.

This isn't necessarily highway robbery. They erase every bad move Otis ever made. And we strip them of all their youth and picks. But this is equally a very good move for the Rockets.

The Rockets, with BBD, will have a pretty good team. And they'll be in great position to build the contender I always thought we would. CLee and BBD's convincing of D12 to stay combined with the cap space to go get Josh Smith and Monta Ellis could have the Rockets talking deep playoff runs in 2013-2014. This is great move for both sides. I'm pretty sure they can buyout Hedo and Duhon at the end of the year too.

2012-2013-----------------------> 2013-2014
Brooks/Douglas---------------> Monta/Brooks
CLee/J-Rich-------------------> CLee/J-Rich
Hedo----------------------------> JSmoove
BBD/Morris--------------------> BBD/Morris
Dwight/D-Mo------------------> Dwight/D-Mo

Don't the Magic have some leverage over Houston, now? Since news is out that we amnestied Scola?

Orlando can just say "give us what we want, or you will have amnestied Scola for nothing," right?


Houston Fan made this point. What's your take on it?

Would not be surprised if he re-signs with them next year. They will be treating him like royalty all season.
