    Isn't LA not allowed to participate in any S&T's because of them being over the luxury tax?

    I don't think they do. They need to free up more I think.

    It was mentioned on an OKC/Rockets game by a rockets announcer that they needed to clear up 3m to offer dwight the max.

    Interesting. I hope that is true. That would also eliminate the three way mags was talking about. (Which I thought also made sense)

    Give us Asik for the #10 and it'll clear up lots of space.

    I would rather keep our pick and trade Leonard for asik. Still frees up enough for them to offer max

    I don't think Leonard has much value, certainly not the same value as the #10 pick. He showed he is a project and his value is probably pretty low, who wants to trade a good asset now for a project that might not pan out?

    But if they get Howard, they can use Leonard more sparingly

    Hey if they want to do that I would sign on the dotted line so fast the Flash would be impressed. I just don't think Leonard has much value.

    Do they have a pick? I thought they traded it to OKC.

    I'm sure the Rockets could get a pick from a team in the mid 20's on draft night to make the trade happen.
