Just a thought, any chance a trade like this could happen?
http://games.espn.go.com/nba/tradeMa...radeId=7yqrw8h
I know Calderon is less likely to go if Gasol is gone, but the Lakers have liked him for some time now.

He apparently considered Lowry near untouchable at last trade deadline (in a deal with LAL). Parting with him is a kick in the nuts to his plans but he can resign Dragic as a FA but I think you ask a high price especially in this draft. One just needs to ask themselves who could possibly available at 8 who would guarantee being a starter day 1...and a productive one. Lowry is that, he is young and he has cut his teeth already in the NBA. Just a allround solid player and he has growth left in his game...imo.

EDIT: as Hello assumed in his post... or possibly just one of Houstong's 2 first rounders, I was just thinking aloud

As a general rule of thumb I'm not a fan of targeting assets that publicly go after their coach and management. It shows a lack of character and professionalism...something I think can go a long way towards putting a quality team on the floor. It shows an immaturity that can be toxic in a young locker room. Talent goes a long way but then again look how many talented players are on the Kings...For still frame photograph of me reading the DeRozan thread please refer to my avatar

That said, no player should be calling for the coach's job, even if they're crappy.
Personally I have always seen McHale as a crap coach, and thought Houston made a huge error bringing him in.
Time will tell.

In the ideal world our team could do this,
Trade Calderon for Lowry
Sign Dan Green
Draft Jeremy Lamb
Sign Omer Asik
Draft Tyshawn Taylor and Alex English
And move DDR to the 3
Our team would look like this
PG: Lowry/Bayless/Taylor
SG: Green/Lamb/English
SF: DeRozan/Kleiza
PF: Bargnani/Davis
C: Valanciunas/Asik
It could and probably would make the playoffs

TOR receives Lowry and Dalembert
HOU receives Calderon, Forbes, ED and a 2nd round pick
http://games.espn.go.com/nba/tradeMa...radeId=7fwh4oj
They get a versatile player in Forbes who can cover the 2 if Courtney Lee doesn't return. They get an upside player in ED and one of the best pure PG in Calderon.
And we get Kyle Lowry. But I'm not sure if that'll enough for them to part with Lowry, well after all I'm not a GM and rightfully so.
