Who will the Rockets get?

Since the McGrady era has ended here who do you think the Rockets are going to get? I heard some rumors surrounding Chris Bosh. I hope that's true. Who do you think they will get? Or do you think we should just let McGrady's contract expire to get the 23 million for next offseason.

Your opinions?

lol @ getting CB4
Are you out of your mind?
Trade a washed up, grumpy player for an elite top 3 PF?
Besides their salaries don't match to make the trade...

They won't be able to trade him.....especially with his ridiculous contract...
No one can match his salary....maybe Miami can by trade Jermaine...
But I doubt they'll do that...

I see Tracy getting cut..

I rather see the Rockets just letting his contract expire so we can get anybody next offseason. Either Bosh, Wade or even Lebron (yes I heard that.)

Ehh, I don't think Bosh would come to Houston.
If he is going to join any Texan team, it will be the Mavericks since Dallas is his hometown.

If he sees that money waving in his face I'm sure that will change his mind

We will give you guys Gilbert Arenas, Mike Miller, AND Mike James (you can waive him), and we will take garbage T-Mac and Brian Cook. You still have 16 million in expiring deals. You get a potential combo guard for the future to build around Ariza or with Ariza and Brooks, plus a do it all swingman in Miller. Guaranteed Western Conference Finals with this roster since Arenas will be excited to play for a real contender, along with Eminem. This trade works.

The other trade will guarantee you guys the Western Conference Championship. Give us T-Mac and garbage Brian Cook, and preferably a 1st rounder in 2010 and we will give you Caron AND Antawn. The good news is that your starting lineup will be

PG - Brooks
SG - Ariza
SF - Butler
PF - Jamison
C - Scola

Your perimeter bench remains Lowry at the point, Budinger at SG, Battier becomes the backup SF and sixth man, Carl Landry becomes the backup PF, and Chuck Hayes and David Andersen can be the backup man in the middle. The only con is that you don't you lack height at the C position but Scola is better than what people give him credit for, and besides, Chuck Hayes isn't that good anyway. You also lose 23 million in expiring contracts, but you get Yao Ming back next year, and just imagine Brooks, Ariza, Butler, Scola, and Yao with AJ, Battier, AND Lowry off the bench. Houston Rockets, your 2010-2011 NBA Champs! Guaranteed!

Why should we get T-Mac? We get the hungriest SG in the league who can fill some seats for 20 games as we fight to get John Wall in the draft lottery, and see if we can have DeShawn Stevenson and LeBron James share the same backcourt in 2010-2011 which probably won't happen. It also gives us a head start on a looooooooooooong rebuilding process with Gilbert as our "Kobe".

Would you still call him LeButt?

You hater

T-Mac

pure sickness

There's no way they can get somebody really good with T-Mac, as right now everybody thinks he has nothing left to contribute. Which is why they should get Bosh...from the free agency next year with T-Mac's expiring contract. Bosh and Yao down low...I would stick to shooting threes all day and not risk going down there

When I'm pissed off then Hell Ya. I call the whole Rockets team a bunch of a**holes when I'm mad

I'm hoping and praying that the Rockets get Bosh. It would be a sick line up. Especially next year.

C: Yao Ming/ David Andersen
PF: Luis Scola/ Carl Landry
SF: Shane Battier/ Trevor Ariza
SG: Chris Bosh/ Chase Budinger
PG: Aaron Brooks/ Kyle Lowry

Now that's sick!!!

Bosh starting as a guard?!?!?!
Bosh can only play power forward or even centre...but not shooting guard.

and Raza, that is a good point.

Rockets would be a tough team to beat with Bosh/Ming at the frontcourt.
