HOUSTON READY TO LAND T-MAC!

[CALIBEATS]

A TRADE DEAL BETWEEN HOUSTON AND ORLANDO IS JUST ABOUT FINISHED. THE DEAL WILL MOST LIKELY BE COMPLETED PENDENING THE EXPANTION DRAFT TOMMORO. IF CHARLOTTE DOES NOT SELECT ANY OF THE FOLLOWING PLAYERS IN THE DEAL IT WILL BE FINALIZED.

THE TRADE:
HOUSTON WOULD RECEIVE- TRACY MCGRADY, JUWAN HOWARD, & TYRONNE LUE

ORLANDO WOULD RECEIVE- STEVE FRANCIS, CUTTINO MOBELY, KELVIN CATO, & BOSTJAN NACHBAR

PERSONALLY I DON'T LIKE THE IDEA OF T-MAC GOIN' TA HOUSTON, NOR FRANCIS TA ORLANDO. HOUSTON MADE IT TA THE PLAYOFFS.I THINK HOUSTON TURNED IT'S BACK ON FRANCIS.

in my opinion that trade wouldn't be the best thing for the rockets

 

[AC Transit]

I'm all for this trade

I think T-mac and Yao is a better combo then Francis and Yao

I think T mac will go off with a low post pressence to take pressure off of him + i think Francis has been looking less explosive since his recent rash of injuries

The trade is also contigent on Juwan not being picked up by the bobcats in the tuesday draft

 

[TONY206]

Nachbars staying, its 3 for 3 I believe.

 

[BROWN GUERRERO]

HAHA LOOKS LIKE NO T-MAC FOR LA!!

 

[KAH]

HOW MANY YEARS DOES FRANCIS HAVE ON HIS CONTRACT CAUSE T-MAC ONLY GOT 1

 

[D-Skrilla]

Damn, I really wished T-Mac would've stayed in the east. If he was gonna go to a west team, I was hopin for the Clippers.

 

[RevoL]

damn t-mac in the west...oh boy

 

[AC Transit]

rumor is derek fisher is interested in the rockets

 

[N.Ill-state]

in my opinion that trade wouldn't be the best thing for the rockets

Jo I believe that's the other way around.

 

[Gordon Gekko]

T-Mac and Yao Ming? WHAT!!! Thats that Squad! Then throw Juwan Howard in the mix...u got you a playoff team.

 

[CALIBEATS]

SO FAR THE DEAL IS ON HOLD, DUE TA STEVE FRANCIS STATIN' THAT HE DOESN'T WANT TA PLAY FOR ORLANDO. ORLANDO WAS CONSIDERIN' A TRADE WITH PHOENIX FOR SHAWN MARION, JOE JOHNSON, & THEIR 1ST ROUND PICK (7TH OVERALL). THAT DEAL IS DEAD DUE TA THE FACT THAT PHOENIX JUST TRADED AWAY THEIR #1 PICK TA CHICAGO. AS FOR NOW ORLANDO IS RECONSIDERING THE HOUSTON TRADE AMONG OTHERS. THEY WILL NOT TRADE MCGRADY UNTIL AFTER THE DRAFT.
