    Why not try to get him with the Trade exception? Rumors are that he is finally healthy, and if true his savvy would help a lot.

    If you were Les, would you take a $45 million gamble on a player with a couple of pounds of metal in his ankle?

    That depends on what the doctors said. I might.

    Honestly I dont think it would work out salary wise for the rockets to obtain Hill. I also feel that he can still be a major contributor in the league, he didnt rely as heavily on his athleticism (a la mcdyess) to put him big numbers. Just a smart player who got it done. He developed a killer mid-range jumper the season when he originally went down in detroit as well. If he comes back at even 75% of the player he was before I can see him getting 15/5/5 again or better in 20-30 mins of playing time


    If CD was willing to take Hill and we wouldnt have to give up anymore players to get him, I really dont know how that would work out, but I would love to give Hill, once fully cleared by doctors, his own and the rockets' a chance. But his albatross of a salary makes it near impossible

    The doctors told Orlando he would be alright and to trade for him from Detroit.

    Orlando really believes that Hill will come back this season and be a contributor as a point forward. Didnt we always say Francis should play with a point forward to help him with distributing duties?
