Backup big man:
*Trade potential high lottery picks (NY's) for a guaranteed high lottery pick in 2010.

Rockets's own 2010 1R pick + NY's pick/s + with/without Hill → move up draft

Potential 2010 high lottery bigs:
Cole Aldrich
Demarcus Cousins
Derrick Favors
Greg Monroe
Donatas Montiejunas
Patrick Patterson

Playmaker:
*Looking at mostly veteran players who play multiple positions to help fit in minutes on a stacked roster and can cover the 3rd PG role.

Battier + Andersen + Taylor + future Rockets 1R draft pick → Prince (expiring)

Battier + Taylor + one of NY's picks + rights to Eliyahu → S&T Ginobili + rights to Splitter

Jeffries + Andersen + Taylor + 2R round pick → Dunleavy (expiring)

Taylor + Andersen + one of NY's picks → S&T Ronnie Brewer (RFA)
