    That was my wish - that kid is turning into a fairly solid player.

    McHale has obviously not been reading Heraclitus then.

    Well if we acquired both Lawson and Faried I would assume we send them Dmo or Jones. I wouldn't want Faried anyways though

    Devner may be willing to trade Lawson if we are willing to take on McGee's contract. I think that is our best bet.

    So what? Portland gets a slight upgrade from CJ to AA? Or they run CJ Blake & AA at the same time in a small ball thing? Terry Brewer Pap would destroy those guys.

    I'm thinking about another big who can play the center position to take minutes off D12's knee. Had good chemistry with Harden on team USA as well.

    We can always salary dump Dorsey w/ the 76ers. Morey just doesn't want to pay anyone to do it, yet.

    So upgrade the PG spot while destroying the PF spot? I'd hope not.

    That's a long shot and DMo or TJones would have to be included or else we'll be going back to collecting a plethora of PF again lol

    But Houston doesn't have enough salaries to match a deal that would include Lawson AND Hickson or McGee. They would have to get a third team involved for sure.

    Is Houston one of the NBA teams using the bio-monitors to monitor player fatigue? If so, then Morey DEFINITELY knows.

    Could be.

    As bad as McGee and his contract are, it fills a need and doesn't compromise our long term flexibility. Only problem is we have to send out a ton of players just to makes the salaries match.

    Hinkie hasn't given Morey any discounts.

    Have to give something significant to the Sixers for that.

    It would no doubt be tricky, but it is do-able.
