Since Morey became the Rockets GM a couple years back (I cant remember which year), he has made his moves tinkering here and there with the roster and acquiring some great player (Brooks, Landry, Scola). Now comes his greatest task and opportunity, to really improve our roster with the McGrady situation. Being that McGrady’s contract is the biggest in the league (and expiring) I believe Morey has one of the biggest trade chips (if not the biggest trade chip) in the league. I see this as Morey’s defining moment as a GM, he can land us an All-Star, or he could simply let the contract expire and let a big opportunity walk away. Problem is, McGrady’s massive contract is simply put is MASSIVE.  So to find players without taking on a “toxic” contract, would be Morey’s savviness at its best. Its going to be an interesting couple of weeks with the trade deadline approaching, and im eager to see what happens.  So what do you guys think?

Outgoing Players: Luther Head, Shane Battier if the warrior are stupid enough to make this trade, i for one would definately take it cuz battier is obviously not producing like he use to and his defense isnt all that great, and we get rid of luther once and for all. and since the warriors are trying to get rid of maggette and his long term contract it isnt all that impossible.

Phoenix Suns

 

Incoming Players
	Luther Head Salary: $1,962,378  Years Remaining: 1 PTS: 4.8  REB: 1.2  AST: 1.6  PER: 9.98
	Shane Battier Salary: $6,448,900  Years Remaining: 3 PTS: 6.5  REB: 4.7  AST: 2.1  PER: 9.32

Houston Rockets

Incoming Players

	Matt Barnes Salary: $797,581  Years Remaining: 1 PTS: 9.9  REB: 5.3  AST: 2.1  PER: 11.80

Outgoing Players: Luther Head, Shane Battier, Rafer Alston being that the trade deadline is upon us, if the rockets were to make a move would this be possible. seeing that steve nash's days in phoenix are numbered, the rockets have to move rafer's sorry ass and head because he just sucks and being that battiers production is down this might make sense. what do u guys think?

how about trading luther head for johan petro of the oklahoma city thunder. hes a 7 footer, and the trade would allow the rockets to get rid of luther head and fill up the void at backup center, the salaries pretty much match. the rockets currently dont have a true center to back up yao, and just in case the rockets dont end up signing mutumbo it should make sense. wut do u guys think?
