    Pretty sure the C's needed to add more salary. I believe Moore can still be waived. Also read that Johnson is going to demand a trade.

    You have to understand the more assets you have the better off you are.

    They won't be good. They're more or less the same team + rookie Shane Battier 2.0 (MKG). I would not be surprised at ALL if they wound up with the #1 pick in the second round. They will almost certainly be in the top 5.

    what the hell with an absolute nobody demanding a trade ? WTF is that all about ? Seems it was a situation where he could at least compete for minutes.... demand a trade ? would more than likely happen anyway.

    He didn't demand a trade, its was just some random hoopsHype rumor claim made through twitter. Multiple others have said thats incorrect.

    It's the Bobcats pick. So it will be at least pretty decent.

    Ain't no way Lin or Asik are coming off the bench, unless Asik does behind either Howard or Bynum...

    Didn't the Rockets like Sean Williams a lot coming out of college? Good shot blocker. Knucklehead, from what I understand though.

    I would've liked Fab Melo to be in that deal...Courtney Lee is an above average player.

    Sean Williams and E'Twuan moore will be waived before they even step foot in houston i believe. The only thing we get from this deal is the 2nd rd pick and Johnson.

    Mike Gambardella @BIG3Sports

    I wonder if we still get the pick.

    Great for Lee, he absolutely deserves it. I wish the Rockets could have kept him but it was time to rebuild.

    I thought Moore would be heading to Portland since they can waive him because they have more SL games left.
