New Jersey says its not dealing Favors for Melo, in which case the only thing they can offer is salary relief and draft picks. New York has nothing to offer, and Chicago is leery of trading away Noah. We can offer cap relief, draft picks, and some promising young talent as well. We can see how the Martin-Melo combo works, and then move accordingly. We may not be at the top of Melo's list, but right now we are "acceptable," and that may be good enough.

So he's mastered the art of getting fouled while shooting and then makes his FTS. Wow!
Martin doesn't rebound-but he's efficient!
Martin doesn't pass-but he's so efficient!
Martin doesn't play defense-but he's super efficient!
Kevin Martin isn't injury prone-he just keeps having freak accidents.
A .500 Rockets team added Martin,and stayed a .500 team-now that's an elite player making an impact.
Martin is a Rocket because he told Sac he wanted to be traded-which proves Martin is a more loyal teammate than Anthony.

If Denver wanted Martin,I'd do it in a heartbeat,but like many here I have serious doubts about Anthony wanting to come to Houston.

I am a huge Martin fan, but I don't see how our lineup can survive Scola / Melo / Martin / Brooks -- seems like way too many hands trying to score with way too few basketballs, and more importantly, providing little to no defense. If we're so committed to getting 'melo, seems like Martin should be available; if we're committed to keeping Martin, seems like the PG and SF positions are better bets (Hello Iguodala (sp?), hello Paul). re- the first bullet- I don't really understand keeping Martin AND chasing 'Melo.
