Makes sense all around for me. I think draft picks would have to be added. Houston makes out pretty good with Smith for Asik and Smith. If Houston gave us a future first and maybe we give a future second to Detroit its fair to me all around.

I think the principles of this deal are reasonable.  I agree that some picks would have to be included, particularly to the C's since Green is worth more than Asik (despite the opinions of Green's detractors).  A future Houston 1st would be fine -- unprotected 2017 or 2018 would work.

TP.  Pretty solid all around idea.

A issue though comes to mind... is Greg Smith the guy who currently holds down the backup C position for the Rockets?  If they trade away Greg Smith and Asik, they will need a backup C for the playoffs.  Are there any FA's they could pursue?  Would buyout candidates be likely to sign there?

A guy like Faverani could fill that role, but it would invalidate the cap balance of the trade and need a player from Houston going to Boston.

So far this season, Greg has only played in 11 games and averaged 9 minutes in them. I think more often than not the Rockets have gone small when Howard rests, and Josh (at PF, with Jones or Montiejunas at C) would fit with that scheme.

But that being said, Greg was included to make the money work. I think the trade would still be fair if you included Montiejunas or Brooks.
