    Rockets desperately need an All-Star for the All-Star game in Houston. Double the pressure, double the fun.

    Can somebody informed speak to the cap implications.

    Are they all expiring, or does Brockman have a $1 million guarantee? If the later, saving $500k is nice, but not that much of an improvement.

    I would have thought Dalembert's contract structure would have been more valuable.

    Is the difference between 12 and 14 one of the "tiers" in this draft?

    Maybe Leuer has a chance to stay? At that salary he's legit.

    I thought that too. Now the pick will likely yield Zeller.

    Morey is trolling the mock drafters.

    Livingston looked good against us last year. I'm impressed he made it back to the NBA after that most horrific knee dislocation. The two tall white dudes, added to Moti coming over, almost guarantee further roster-morphing. Time to refresh.

    Good lord at how hard we owned Milwaukee.

    Only took on $2.5M in guaranteed salaries (with trading $1.5M) to move up 2 spots in a loaded draft.

    I was close!

    Brockman is only on the books for $1MM next year, so don't be surprised if none of these guys ever dawn a Rockets jersey

    (options declined and cuts)

    If all else fails, moving ahead of the Bucks gives us a much better shot at drafting Leonard or Zeller at 12.

    And Chad Ford, u mad bro?

    This might be the best thing about signing Dalembert...moving up 2 spots without losing games.
