I'm sayin'. You are not getting a young all star player for T-MacOriginally Posted by airblaster503
You really think Houston is going to get a young all star caliber player for Tmac?The only way they would ever get that is if they played him enough minutes to show he is worth it, which isn't going to happen since he is done playing as a Rocket. Whatever happens, I hope to see McGrady start putting up big numbers wherever he ends up.

I don't see a trade going down honestly. Rockets want a young star or more ecs. No one is going to give up any one of value for tmac. They should just keephim on the bench and have that 23m come off the books and try and make a push to sign bosh or boozer. They need a good big.

What people don't realize is the Rockets are willing to tack on a contract in a potential deal.
If a team wants to clear up room for the 2010 FA bonanza, McGrady's contract is as good and as helpful as you're going to get. For example, the Knickswant to get under as much as they can. How? Getting rid of Jeffries and/or Curry. Problem is, who's willing to tack on their contract? The Rockets wouldthink about it. ...if they included somebody else worthwhile. Like maybe a Gallanari.
Washington has already tried to dump GA. With the way Tyreke is playing, maybe the Kings think Kevin Martin is expendable? The Gasol trade to the Lakers a fewyears back?
Nobody is trading talent for some illusion that TMac is 'back.' Teams would be doing it for financial reasons, and you gotta give a little to get alittle. In this case, give a little more to get a lot back. (23M expiring)

Only problem with Gallanari is that he's going back overseas next year

who told you gallanari is going overseas?
and the rockets may take a deal involving curry and jefferies. all that money would expire just a year after. if they feel like they don't have a giantshot at landing one of the top 4 free agents of 2010 then they may make a deal like this and make a huge splash 2011

Gallo would never get traded. Not even if Don Nelson was our GM,
The thing is, the Rockets are looking for a lot for Tmac. Hes looking for like a lottery pick, and an expiring (or something like that). who the hell wouldeven offer that?
Only teams i see are the Kings, and Wizards.
The Bulls can give them TT + expirings, but it doesnt help them at all.
If you want talent, you're going to have to take back longer contracts.

It is dead weight.
That's what I was trying to say to Knicks fans. No way the Rockets take back Curry/Jeffries. Not the Rockets, not nobody.
The only way for the Knicks to unload that is to include somebody else. Harrington's expiring, Nate, Lee (who could veto a trade) etc.
