I think the Rockets are going to be in straight-up salary dumping mode when we get closer to free agency... I think a second-round pick might actually be enough to get him once Melo hits the market.
Now, if it absolutely takes a first-round pick, I'm totally cool with that. But I'd rather pick their pockets when they're scrambling to make cap space.
POLL: If you had the choice, would you rather trade a future second-rounder for Asik, or a future first-rounder for Asik/Lin?
