Anthony Davis to Houston

Howard Anderson, the Magic frontcourt

Ryan Anderson to return, I'm willing to bet.

New Orleans will send a future first-round pick to Houston for Asik, league source tells Yahoo Sports. Deal will give Rockets cap space.

what? the Rockets actually think they're getting James or Melo?

[Robz4000]

Damn, Hornets are gonna be solid next season (health permitting). Wonder what Houston's back up plan is when they strikeout on Melo/Lebron?

[baseline bum]

I like Asik, but in New Orleans where they already have an A+ interior defender?

Morey is even more of a gambling addict than Jordan tbh...

[Chinook]

Pelicans giving up another first.

Another trade with poor timing for Houston. S&Ts are out now.

He's a moron is what he is.

Bad for both teams tbh. NO doesnt need a defensive center that will clogged up the lane. And they already have AD.

[Spurs9]

I like the NO team they are putting together. Davis is gonna beast this season

It's obviously a precursor. Have some ing patience.

Actually, this makes NO monstrous defensively. Howard is my guy and all, but I have a hard time seeing him having much of an impact against our division rivals now.

Like I said, though I do not know why they're sniffing Anthony. He's nothing, he's dog .

I don't need to be patient with other teams, Dale.

If Davis keeps hitting that midrange jumper consistently, he and Asik make a great frontcourt on both sides of the ball. The Pelicans might use Brow/Anderson/Asik like the Spurs use Duncan/Diaw/Splitter (with different minute configurations).

[sook]

Some restructuring needs to take place as well. The SW division is too damn compe ive at this point.

SA
HOU
MEM
DAL
NO

Every single one of those teams will make the playoffs.

Yeah that's crazy, no team should ever put two big men who are fantastic defenders on the same team.

Why would they not be able to do a S&T now? Also, how can NO absorb ASIK without sending anything back? I am showing that they have 58M in salaries committed to next year and ASIK makes 8M
