    But we'd still have our 12th pick for Perry Jones.

    Perry/Drummond/D-mo
    Evans/Goran

    How U?

    It amazes me that some of you think Parsons would be "easy" to replace.

    Parsons just seems like too good a contract for the Rockets to trade away this early. As deep as this draft is, and as inefficient as TEvans is, Lowry/Parsons/16/18 just seems too steep a price unless we are trading the #5 and TEvans in a package to Orlando. Note that Orlando would love to Parsons seeing that is somewhat of a regional favorite.

    Guys, nobody is untouchable, face it.
    We would be receiving Evans too, former ROY.

    Deal is dead, makes sense. Morey is not ready to part with Parsons or D-Mo probably. Who knows, Kings might budge when the draft is actually underway.

    To have the 5th pick would be sweet, pick Lillard with 5 to **** block pacers, Barnes or MKG (depending who is there). Then with the 12th get Leonord. This would be my Ideal situation.

    Precisely, and Parsons is next... Hell D-Mo is starting to look a lot like Dwight's peer (talent wise) when you mention him in a trade, he hasn't even suited up for us yet.

    Your an idiot if you think its too steep a price for a top 5 pick and Evans. Lets ignore you from now. Parsons was a 2nd round pick and role player. Lets do this.

    Even those these are from around March, look at these defensive stats. How are we going to easily replace Parsons?

    why not just the kings keep evans we keep parsons. obviously, maury knows he can get a ton in return in the black market for Evans, once he has his hands on his asset.

    Guys, "on the radio" is code for random speculation from fans and/or hosts. If there's any real news or reports, it'll be on Twitter or somewhere verifiable.
