I hope Houston realizes that Josh demands more than just Asik would make.

Josh turned down a 15M a year deal from the Hawks last offseason, so he would likely want at least that much.

The 11M I have seen some people throw around likely wouldn't cut it.

Good luck with that.

So, you're hoping to get a superior player (Smith is better than Asik) for Asik AND ask us to take on Lin's salary?

he might want at least that much, but there are only a couple of teams who can give it to him, and without help, Houston isn't one of them.

If both teams are well under the cap you don't have to match salaries do you?

Edit:NVM - I just realized this is in scenario Houston gets Dwight and is at cap level.
