    MoT - Might be Traded? [speculation]

    Just speculation on my part..

    but it's weird that someone gets put on the IL for a flu?

    it feels like JVG is assuring that MoT not get injured in game play in preparation for a trade.

    I feel like MoT is traded but waiting for some unknown reason.

    any thoughts for who?

    I heard Jonathan Feigen on the radio the other day. He thinks this is truely legit.

    He had a bad case of flu, the games were so close together (4 in 5 nights) and the team didn't want him giving it to the rest of them.

    It makes sense.

    He's eligible to come off the IR after Wednesday's game. We'll see then, I guess.

    I wouldn't be too hopeful.

    Your title is very misleading to say the least, at least for now.

    Yeah, you may want to re-phrease your title before it gets locked. Although, I wish the title was true...

    Don't you usually showcase a player before a trade and not bury them on the IR?

    I didnt mean it as a teaser (title modified) however, we placed quite a few players on IL before trading them. I think to make sure they dont get injured..

    How many times have I read in Chronicle articles that CD is trying to make a move with our bevy or PFs and NO ONE will touch them? I dont see any of our PFs being traded. Spoon MIGHT have some value next year when it is the last year of his deal, but I am not sure we will be able to move anyone else anytime soon. :(

    the unfortunate thing is that Mo could play well on an Eastern Conference team - if he got some good PT (with plenty of touches)... can you hear me New Jersey

    but, right now, no one wants him - so they want the ROckets to take garbage AND give up picks for a team to take him off our hands
