The Rockets have begun talks regarding a variety of options designed to motivate teams seeking cost savings to make a deal, a person with knowledge of the Rockets’ thinking said. The Rockets have spoken with Sacramento, which has the sort of young talent the Rockets would seek, and Charlotte, which would more likely have to include attractive draft picks along with contracts, according to one individual familiar with the talks.

The Kings have been steadfast in a refusal to deal first-round pick DeMarcus Cousins, despite a rocky start. The Bobcats are more likely to offer players who don’t fit in to the Rockets’ plans, such as Boris Diaw and Nazr Mohammed, along with desirable draft considerations.

I think the Cats would offer Nazr and Gana, and a 1st. Boris seems more likely to go to Orlando as where Jax may be heading to Chicago, but no one really knows.

If the Bobcats could get these three trades to work I would be ecstatic.

Here is what our roster would look like if all three trades went down.

Center- Yao Ming, Kwame Brown

Power Forward- Tyrus Thomas, Taj Gibson, James Johnson, Eduardo Najera

Small Forward- Gerald Wallace, Dominic McGuire, Derrick Brown

Shooting Guard- Jason Richardson, Gerald Henderson, Matt Carroll

Point Guard- D.J. Augustin, Shaun Livingston, Sherron Collins

Yao is out for the season, and a free agent next summer. Many believe his career is over.

Houston is under the impression that his contract is worth some trade value because it is in its final year and the team is only out about one half of the cash money due to an insurance contract he has that will pay back some of it. However the cap hit would still be about 14 million.

      XL is a Lost Cause

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      I agree with this and I think it's worth mentioning too that Bryce is not consistent on his placement and especially velocity and that in large part is driven by his footwork. We all know XL doesn't have the best hands and I don't know that he can overcome that. Cam always had the heater that just hit your hands and sank into your grip, where Bryce has some that are harder thrown, some soft. Bryce stepping into a pass looks so much different than that hop throw thing he does. I think XL really needs to hit the jugs machine and start learning how to catch all these different touch passes. TMac and Coker don't have these issues. If XL doesn't get some work in he's going to be out of the league in the next couple of years.

      I think most people like XL from a personal standpoint. I don't think he's stupid either. Although if we are being realistic he is lacking in football IQ at this point in time and it cannot be disputed that he has not taken working on his craft seriously at all times given the body of work on the field. It speaks for itself. I myself have defended him at times given the circumstances of our QB room. But he is now in his third year and 25 years old. We are not in a position as a franchise to go around babying anyone especially first round draft picks. He needs to take his position and his football career seriously or he is going to end up selling used cars somewhere. I hope he realizes this and takes an extended break from social media because that mess certainly isn't going to increase his net worth if he ends up out of the league. And these hanger on types will disappear quick too once that money dries up and it surely will eventually. We'll see how he responds.
