    We traded at the deadline and got some pretty good players. Jeffries and Armstrong.

    99% of Landry went to Sacramento. 1% of Landry went to Dallas.

    We found a new BIG 3 along with our PF of the future. McGrady kept talking...in a Knicks uniform. :grin:

    It was an up and down season.
    We certainly missed Yao.

    The Rockets competed hard all year, and they traded Tmac for some young up and coming pieces and future draft considerations. The young guys got a chance to develop, and some future stars were born in Aaron Brooks and Chase Budinger, the future looks bright.

    No McGrady, No Yao, but still a .500 record. Brooks and Lowry have been bright spots, Landry was terrific early, Scola has been a rock for most of the season.

    We didn't make if far without our big guy. But great potential for next year.

    Tmac and Landry traded for Kevin Martin, Draft Picks, and Jordan Hill.

    Rockets miss playoffs this year.
