Just curious... anybody think the move to acquire Dragic comes when his bro is also available to be traded (12/26 IIRC)? (that is, the Dragic bros are a package deal)
Watching game now vs knicks, He was on the bench whole 4th just got in with 5 mins left because green was playing bad... . They're running 3 guards now, dragic Ran in corner last 4 plays didn't get one touch, Bledsoe and Thomas handle the ball up top and are not looking for him ---he shouldn't be that hard to get and looks frustrated, unless Cuban hears motets interested and he offers Ellis for better fit with rondo
Yeah, I feel this way too. What we are lacking right now is a backup c and another shot creator/scorer. With those 2, Harden, Beverly, Ariza , DMo and Howard we would already be 7 deep with either Terry, Canaan, Brewer, Papa or TJones taking the 8th spot of our playoff rotation. With the way DMo is developing we probably don't need another star. But we need another guy that can lead the offense to take pressure of Harden and take over when he is on the bench. And we need someone who can hold his own when Howard is on the bench. Dragic and Wright would be perfect for us. If we can get them without giving up Harden, Ariza, DMo or Howard I really like our chances. Though for me, right now, Dallas is the front runner with several teams having a real chance. For a long time the west hasn't been this competitive at the top!

If the Knicks have a chance then we definitely are in the front of the pack along with Phoenix. Dope.
Has this question been addressed? We're the Rockets willing to part with the NOP pick for Rondo? And if so Kpap and the NOP pick and something like Canaan Fillers wouldn't have done the trick??
