Tracy McGrady traded

I think this article is recent:

Basically it says that Houston is ready to go and Francis is likely withdrawing his objections.

The average age of those Houston players is 28.5. I don't get how it makes sense to trade for those 3 when you draft a highschooler at #1 over Emeka Okafor.

Cato's contract is up in two years, which is probably how long it will take Dwight Howard to be a factor. And Francis and Mobley (if they're still around) won't be old yet by then.

I don't know much about their GM other than he comes from the NHL, maybe his NBA knowledge is lacking a bit?

It seems like the Magic just drafted the next Tracy McGrady, the question is will he still be on their roster when or if he starts playing like that?

Considering this way this offseason has been going, he'll change his mind again

Joking (sorta ... it wouldn't surprise me)
