is a schizophrenic mess of bullshit. I have heard everything from “The Rockets are merely listening to offers” to “the Rockets are quietly shopping McGrady’s contract” to “the Rockets are trying to get rid of the contract.” Remember when Morey was supposedly shopping Artest?

Look, this is the way the “NBA Rumor Mill” works:

1) A GM calls Morey / Morey calls another GM
2) One of them mentions McGrady as a possibility
3) That GM frantically calls his city’s version of Richard Justice, talking about how shit’s going down immediately.
4) NOTHING FREAKING HAPPENS.

this is the general annoying process, but the question is who you think would be willing to trade for McGrady?

You know, what if Chicago signs Ben Gordon to a 10-12 million per contract for 4 years and then sends him plus Brad Miller and a filler for T-Mac and a filler. Houston gets some instant offense who can either start or come off the bench and a backup center for Yao who can run Rick Adelman’s offense to a “T.” Meanwhile, Derrick Rose gets an athletic wing to join him on offense and pair up with Luol Deng, John Salmons, Tyrus Thomas and Joakim Noah. Salmons can start at the “2” until T-Mac is ready to play again and then slide into a 6th man role.

Of course this is all speculation, so it probably won’t happen.
