And Portland gets ANOTHER young PF who can upgrade their bench (or, in a pinch, start). He'll get burn in Portland he wouldn't almost anywhere else. This is a good trade for both teams.

It was the draft rights to two previous second-rounders, Kostas Papanikolau and Marko Todorovic (a couple of draft-and-stashers playing over in the Euroleague) and two future second-rounders, so effectively the Blazers traded four second-round picks for Robinson. That's probably as much as the Rockets could expect for him: they wanted picks (because they were trying to vanish salary for Dwight) and they did that. They were trying to find someone to give them a first-rounder but nobody was buying, so they got a lot of seconds.

I agree it's a good trade. It allows Houston to clear the space to sign Howard. I knew about the Euro players, but we also have stashed players that could've sent, I'm not sure if these particular players were coveted or were just thrown in to save cap. TRob would have had a chance to start here. I'm sure Masai will come up with something to shore up the PF position.

PF is a very, very deep position around the league. If Masai wants to compete, he can find a decent one. If he wants to tank, he can probably STILL get a decent one.

Seriously I would have given him away. The fact that we got Novak made it cool, Camby made it great, 1st rounder made it awesome and 2 the 2nd rounders made it an absolutely ejaculatory trade.
