Would Houston ever give up Yao for 3 of the Raptors' expendable Euro
big men?

YAO would cost Toronto a good veteran centre, a first round draft
choise who finished 2nd in rookie of the year voting last season, and
a second big man who was on the rookie all star FIRST team at the end
of last season.

I'm thinking down the line Toronto, with a huge Chinatown immigrant
population, will end up adding another member of the Chinese national
team (like Milwaukee's big rookie Ying, to replace Bargnani) to bond
with Yao.

I'm thinking 3 for 1 ... two NBA rookie C/F's from last season, seven
foooter Bargniani and Garbajosa who have LOADS of up-side for the day
Houston is finally ready to win the title, and seven foooter Rasho
Nestrovich a solid veteran Euro center who has never missed the play-
offs in is career as an NBA starting center...for YAO.

Houston could add NBA rookie guard Bellini, to bond with Bargnani, in
a subsequent trade some day soon.
