[QUOTE=bagelred]Adjusted slightly. The trade, IMO, can only happen with 6 teams above. And you can probably throw Cavs out, because it would have to be for Shaq.[/QUOTE]
We can do it without Shaq read my previous post.

I have feeling that Morey is gonna send TMac + Battier to a contender, ie Cleveland, for expiring contract + talent/picks.
This allows Houston to sign a max 2010 FA.

yea but Shane isn't a FA this summer...
The only unrestricted FAs we have are Chuckwagon and Brian Cook

The point is that we "dump" Shane's non-expiring contract so that we create more cap this summer. A contender can offer us some talent/pick for Shane. TMac expiring for expiring expiring.
TMac and Battier are two nice pieces for a contender.

The Rockets would have to decline all team options and not resign Scola there for giving up his Bird right to sign a Max. Even in they trade Battier.

ok so if we trade away a non expiring contract we don't have to pay him anymore?

This is easy to say but for who? Come up with a realistic scenario. I don't think there is one....That's like $30 million in contracts to match.
Heres my attempt haha

Cavs load up completely for the championship; NYK and HOU plays in 2010 lotto.
The Cavs laugh at that. Shaq is not goin anywhere. We want him come playoff time

You need to win a ship to keep Bron Bron. Battier will help you do that.

I've got to say, that is a very impressive trade.
As a Knicks fan, I'd hate to lose Wilson, and maybe we could avoid it, if HOU just accepts Shaq. I don't see why HOU ends up with Shaq and Wilson in the deal. That would be amazing for them.
But that's actually a really good trade all around. I'm impressed.
But let's remember....Cavs and Knicks are not doing any business together. I bet Ferry and Walsh haven't talked in at least 18 months.
Then make it Big Z if u buy him out and either Wally S+T ala Keith Van Horn or Bobbie
