As long as Morey can swindle a couple of 2nd Rounders (JaMychal Green JaMychal Green JaMychal Green!!), I'm okay with that. Teague hopefully, not Royce White. His anxiety will start acting up as soon as he starts living on planes, from what I hear....and the medications makes him drowsy all the time. Great player. Not thrilled about inheriting the anxiety aspect.
Every single freaking thread, quiet now, son. What will we do with ANOTHER undersized PF that is an upperclassman, who may I also mention regressed over the past season, ridiculous homeless man's PPat.
Then why is he skyrocketing up draft boards? But on second thought...you're right. Let's just tough it out with Luis Scola and Patrick Patterson for another season. Who needs athleticism?
Athletic hey! Haha... He just has PPat's draft combined numbers beat out on vertical jump by 2.3 in, and lane agility by 0.3sec... PPat has him in 3/4 sprint .... it's fine you like him and all... just calm down with harping on about him on every thread dude.
http://espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=8yvv32z Rumors are the Chicago and Atlanta want to get into the Lottery or close to it. Houston IN: Joakim Noah & Josh Smith Atlanta IN: Luis Scola, Kyle Lowry, Samuel Dalembert, #16 via HOU Chicago IN: Z. Pachulia, Jeff Teague, #14 via HOU Then.... Houston IN: Michael Beasely (sign and trade), Luke Ridnour + #18 pick Minnesota IN: Kevin Martin Houston resigns: Lee, Dragic, Camby PG: Dragic l Ridnour SG: Lee l #18 pick SF: Beasely l Parsons l Budinger PF: Smith l Patterson l Morris C: Noah l Camby
I was OK with this until I read the word "Beasley" ..... Do Not Want. Give me something of value from Minny and I wouldnt complain tho I doubt its a championship roster - Its at least a playoff team..
Dalembert, Morris and Pick 14 for Pick 24 , 33, 34, and Anderson Varejao. At 16 I think we go Jeffery Taylor; 24 Melo/Nicholson/Teague, 33 Doron Lamb, 34 Henry Sims Mediocre, but it sounds like a Rockets move.
TOR in: #16, K. Lowry, M. Morris MEM in: #8, P. Patterson, K. Martin, S. Dalembert, Dal 1st HOU in: #25, R. Gay, T. Allen, J. Calderon Draft #14 T. Ross & #25 F. Melo Dragic, Calderon Ross, Allen Gay, Parsons, Budinger Scola, Motiejunas Camby, Melo
Trade Kevin Martin, Kyle Lowry, Patrick Patterson, #14 for Tyreke Evans, Francisco Garcia, #5 Draft Andre Drummond and Kendall Marshall/Marquis Teague Re-sign Gogi&Lee Dragic/Marshall or Teague Evans/Lee/Garcia Parsons/Budinger Scola/Motiejunas Dalembert/Camby/Drummond You might hate to have Tyreke on your team, but this is some kind of "risk taking" move, which many of you want.
I like it a lot if Bulls do. The Boston trade is a MUST - #22 to satisfy Brooklyn obligation. WHAT ABOUT THIS? The 16th pick with Dalembert and Budinger ...for... The 10th pick with Xavier Henry and Greivis Vasquez (NO just traded their starting center and small forward so they NEED players that can play NOW minutes without a big commitment) THEN The 10th pick with Lowry and Patterson ...for... The 2nd pick (The Bobcats need so much help and this would be a soild start) ROCKETS: We cut the spare parts (opening up playing time and satisfying the Brooklyn obligation) and help others and ourself while doing it. Noah l Camby/G.Smith Scola l D-Mo Parsons l Morris Lee l Henry Dargic l Vasquez PLUS the 2nd pick
I think it is important that Lowry gets dealt on draft night. It will send a message to Dragic. Then you decide if you want to pencil in Parsons as your starting SF for the next few years (although we will always be open to an upgrade). Dragic and Parsons would be great with a star type SG that can shoot. Beal would be great there and then you build around that. Lowry+Patterson+#16 for #5. (Beal)
Kyle Lowry, Patrick Patterson, Marcus Morris, Chase Budinger, Sam Dalembert #14, and #16 For Dwight Howard, Quentin Richardson and 2nd Round Pick Dragic, ??? Martin, Lee Parsons, Richardson Scola, DMo Howard, Camby, Smith
I believe that morey's big plan goes a little something like this Houston trades Lowry,morris,Scola to the lakers Lakers trade Gasol to hou Then Orlando trades Howard, Glen davis to hou Houston trades Martin,dalembert,Patterson, our 2 first rd picks this year, Dallas' protected first rd pick we aquired, and any picks we have next year. Lakers do this bc they get their pg and a pf replacement and our pick from last year which they had on their top 5 on their big board in Morris. Orlando does this because they can buy out dalembert cheap and save on cap. Kevin Martin will save them about 12 mil next season when he comes off their books. Patterson is a good young player and they get up to 4 first rd picks and/or rights to lull Rockets could then entice deron Williams to sign with us since he has 2 big men to pass to. If not re-sign dragic then lee. Rockets line up Howard/Camby Gasol/montijunas/Davis Parsons/bud Lee/ mid level except Williams or dragic / draft pick or lull
Feel free to dump on this one, it won't happen anyway. Rockets out: Lowry, Morris, Budinger, Dalembert, #16 Sacramento out: Tyreke Evans, #5 Chicago out: Joakim Noah, #29 Rockets in: Joakim Noah, #5, #29 Sacramento in: Lowry, Morris, #16 Chicago in: Dalembert, Tyreke Evans, Budinger Chicago gets a temp. center and a dynamic if needs-some-coaching Evans. Maybe he'll help take some of the heat off Rose when he comes back in a year. Budinger helps Chicago suck less while Deng is out. Sacramento needs a real p.g. Morris can develop into a good player if he's allowed to play. Plus he and Kyle can talk about how they miss Philly and how Sacramento sucks. The #16 is to be fair. Houston gets the young vet big they need---pass, board, defend---and a coveted high draft pick. The #29? Gives them options....trade up with 14, sell it, cajole Brooklyn into a deal.
If Leonard is available at 16 I'd trade the 14th pick for Boston's two 1R picks and Avery Bradley. They can have Dalembert or Martin as well. Apparently Ainge is very high on Martin. Doc would run him off screens all day like he does for Jesus. Perfect fit there for Martin. Use one of the late firsts on Fournier to stash.
I like this but Would NO part with Grevis he's pretty good and they'd need a backup point so probably throw in Fortson
Rose will be out for a while and would need time to get back to speed which may take the entire season to do so. And with Noah on the block, what if we traded Lowry for him? We trade- Lowry, Dally (pending team opt) Get- Noah Draft Marshall and Zeller/Leonard with 14 and 16. Sign Lee, Dragic, and Camby back. We could then look at somehow getting Eric Gordon and Vasquez via S&T for Scola, Bud, Lee (S&T), Marshall (14th pick), and Dallas pick. Scola's game would fit nicely to Davis' and they could use some leadership over there. Scola also would be everything they would hope Sully would be if they drafted him minus the medical red flags. And his contract has a buyout option in the final year. They can draft Gordon's replacement at 10 in Waiters or Rivers. Dragic/Vasquez Gordon/ Martin Parsons/ Morris Ppat/Dmo/ Smith Noah/ (Leonard or Zeller)/ Camby
