    Theo Ratliff is a decent shot blocker.

    I think he's at least better than Nix. He's put up a 28, 6,6 a 25,10,6 and others. If he did that as a Rocket we'd be calling him a future all star over here.

    Putrid shooting. I'm pretty hesitant of a player who's main attraction is upside if they just got traded for nothing by OKC of all places.

    Now accepting bets:
    Which of these guys will get mentioned first by a Clutchfan as a reason why the Rockets will make the play in?

    Opposite of that.

    We're going to need a headcount cutting move soon.

    Interesting trade, the Rockets essentially bought a mid-low 2nd rounder.

    That being said, Derrick Favors is the best player of the bunch, not that that's saying much, but I can see him having some trade value later in the season when teams start losing players to injuries, and some team desperately need a serviceable big man to give them 15 minutes a game. The Rockets might be able to pry another 2nd rounder from a team desperate enough.
