Just for the hell of it, what do you think the Rockets would /could give up?

The Hornets dont have much.

NYC probably does have the pieces to do it

Knicks' picks, young players like Hill and Patterson, Budinger to take Carmelo's spot. They'd probably have to give up Martin along with Jeffries' expiring contract. The Rockets would have to move a lot of salary. They do have a nice trade exception from the Ariza deal though.

Collison would've been a good asset for the Hornets to use with Chauncey getting older.

We could give them a ton but would probably not go further than Hill, there pick of Budinger, Brooks, or possibly Martin if we get desperate to go along with the Knicks picks. Throw in Jefferies to make the salaries match. I don't think there is anyone on our team that would be off limit but we would negotiate at a position like 4 where we have depth to see what they wanted. If they shot down Hill and Melo signed an extension before the trade I don't see Morey having a problem replacing him with Scola.
