    Lin won't be traded, as he's starting point. Bev is not ready yet.

    Regardless, this is a sick lineup.

    Lin/Beverley/Canaan
    Harden
    Parsons
    Smith/Jones/DMo
    Howard/Smith

    that's a good lineup. fun to watch.

    Ryan Anderson is a great 3-point shooter, but Asik is worth more.

    I love Asik. His defense was amazing in helping the Rockets last season. He showed great guts when the Thunder were fouling him on purpose in the playoffs.

    I wish there was a way he could stay.

    Dangit I really wanted Asik to stay I LOVED when OKC tried to hack-asik and he made them pay. Best of luck to you Omer hope you become a star wherever you go.

    Wish they hadn't already traded Lopez. I'd love a package of Anderson + Lopez. We'd still have a top notch back up and legit shot blocker behind Howard and a power forward who can stretch the floor. That would be sweet.

    They've already traded their 2014 first rounders to Sixers. So maybe Austin Rivers? But hey, we have Beverly and Cannon

    Adrian Wojnarowski ‏@WojYahooNBA 6m

    One trade destination that would appeal to Houston's Omer Asik and Tom Thibodeau: The Chicago Bulls.
