Why not go for Tyson Chandler

by rocketjamison on Jul 3, 2009 8:19 PM CDT

This makes sense to me! I think he would be way better then a unproven center like Marcin Gortat. We can trade Battier and Cook , the Hornets need forwards anyway with Peja Stojakovic be injured all the time now... I ran it through the Trader Checker at realgm.com and it works. As much as I love Battier and hate to see him leave, to me this is good for all involved... and I have no emotional ties to Cook... so get it done Morey!

Because another center with foot problems is exactly what we need.

hear hear!

13 points in 39 seconds. Enough said.

Because I wouldn't want to get rid of Battier

Because Battier should NOT be sent away in a deal. We’ll need his pearls of wisdom next season.

In Daryl Morey, Rick Smith and Ed Wade we (usually) trust.

He is expendable

I would trade Battier and Cook for Gortat. For Tyson I woul pull the trigger in an instant. Trevor is a younger, more athletic Shane.

but no where near as intelligent about the game.

13 points in 39 seconds. Enough said.

no chance. Hornets are looking for non-guaranteed contracts or players with expiring contracts willing to be bought out because they can’t afford to pay luxury tax. the Rockets have neither.

yep

that’s why that chandler-for-Wallace deal has been floating around.

the Rockets have neither

Well, James White’s contract isn’t guaranteed. And the same goes for contracts extended to the second-round picks, but I’m pretty sure something around $3million isn’t going to make the numbers work.
