If no Yao at #1, who's the logical pick at #1 for the Rockets?

    If no Yao at #1, who's the logical pick at #1 for the Rockets? Dunleavy or Butler? seems logical right? but i dont think the rockets would do it, especially at a #1......trade down? seems too risky......How about Jay Williams? Rockets can draft him, trade Cat and say KT for a SF, maybe Odom and still draft a pretty good player at 15, Francis, Jay, Eddie, Taylor and Cato, any thoughts or suggestions?

    A trade, would be the logical "pick".

    If the Rockets don't pick Ming I'd like to see them trade down with either Memphis or Golden State pick up a future first rounder and a solid player, and then draft Caron Butler.

    I think this would be a good posibility.

    I also like the possible trades with the Clippers, although I am not too high on Odom. I would like to have both of their picks. But a future first rounder from Golden State would be GOLD, possibly LeBron James.:cool:

    I agree on trading down!

    perhaps with the clips for 8 and odom and olowokandi

    or to GS,who ae the losers of lottery and then draft Dunleavy or a little bit of higher risk in Caron Butler!
