Why the hell would we do this? We don't own a first round pick next year. We are idiots. Even if we get a pick from Houston it will be a late first round pick. Are we sure we are out of the Melo sweepstakes?

i'll take boozer if we can get some pieces
Take on Jeremy Lin's 15 mil a year contract to help the Rockets sign Bosh.

Gotta love this front office. :wow:
its only a 8.2 million dollar cap hit. and we probably get picks or young prospects like T. Jones and or Dontas M. not a terrible deal since we arent getting Melo forsure now

How is it only 8 mil? Isn't his 2015 salary 15 mil?

I just don't understand it. Why would we HELP them out?? Why help any team in the West, but especially the Rockets ...

The only way we accept this trade is if we get young pieces and draft picks which we need to rebuild since we traded everything when we dealt for nash. Kobe is going to be gone soon and banking on free agent superstars to come to the lakers because they are the lakers is not realistic.
