Bobcats may make a run at the oft injured Yao Ming

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.

    • I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two. 
    • Last night was the classic example of a visiting team just holding on through the wave of emotion a home team has at the start of a big time game. Bama’s first two kickoff returns really set them back as far as playcalling and allowed OU to dictate field position. The emotion of the home crowd fed into what OU was doing at that point, and it felt like Bama would not be able to overcome that.     Once the kickoff returner was told to fair catch every kick, the game shifted, as Bama wasn’t starting each drive inside their own 15. It was then that Bama was able to make some plays, outscoring OU 34-7 the rest of the way.  I think the last 3/4 of the game proves Bama was the better team. OU was just able to ride the initial wave of emotion to a big lead, but Bama held on just enough.  However, had OU blocked the punt on Bama’s second drive and scored a TD (vice a FG on the ensuing drive), things likely would have been different.  Anyway, Roll Tide!
