What teams who were suppose to contend for the playoffs but have fell short of expectations might now start selling parts? and how might that affect/help the Rockets achieve their quest for a third best player on a championship team? Maybe the Nuggets with Ty Lawson? or Detroit with Josh Smith?
If the Nuggets were smart (which is debatable, because Karl and Ujiri), they'd keep Lawson and build around him. Dude is a baller. Detroit already has a logjam in the frontcourt, so they won't be wanting Asik any time soon. And once they figure out the logjam, they'll be scary in the East. Drummond is already top 5 of centers.
