Neither does Darryl Morey, so we're going to be parting ways with T-Mac at some point.

McGrady will definitely be traded at some point suring the season, more than likely to Toronto for Bosh as they are in a similar situation with him.

Toronto just wants T-Mac's contract to go after one of the big boys in the offseason, but I dont see anyone wanting to sign there.

I don't know that they do though. Maybe if we took Reggie Evans in the deal they would be interested but if not I dont see the positive in it for Toronto. As it stands they can offer Bosh more than anyone else money wise which that gamble is worth more alone than taking on T Mac for a half a season. They arent going to contend for a title so I dont think they have much use for him. I would think in any deal for Bosh they are going to want pieces for the future.

quote:
The Rockets are so far over the salary cap that McGrady's expiring 23 million dollars this season would only free up about 9 million to sign a free agent.

You can keep Landry but Scola might have to go as much as I hate it depending on how much he wants after this season, or just give Yao his walking papers and we would have a ton of money to spend. Even with Yaos 18 mm player option for next year the Rockets only have 37 million in contracts between 10 players. They would have a lot of wiggle room to get Bosh a MD
