I love trade threads. You have people using the "fact" that the Rockets want to trade Martin as proof that he's not that great...except that there's absolutely no evidence that the Rockets are open at all to trading Martin.

And you have someone quoting defensive win shares as if it's some sort of concrete evidence.

I'm not arguing that Martin is a good defender. But if you're going to use DWS and the PER of one season of Roddy in which he was coddled and used only in the best matchups to make the case that we'd be better off with Roddy than Martin for the near future, I would respectfully submit that you need to have your head examined.

Personally, I'm not at all sure that Houston would trade Martin for Haywood and Roddy.
