    Just heard on 610 AM from Mark and Rich that the Rockets are working on a trade to bring Artest to the Rockets. They didn't get any details can anyone else confirm.

    Also, your thread title is a bit final, wouldn't you say?

    Is their source from the ESPN boards? This is entirely impossible.

    you guys are such suckers.....the Rockets have the least in the league to give up...unless they like trash such as Sura,James,Ward....the probability of this trade happening is 0.0000000000000000000000000000000001!....and that one is up there only because the rockets could trade McGrady Or Ming...but.....

    I don't see how this is possible.

    I will not get excited about this till we have someone to confirm. No offense to the Thread Starter, but 52 Posts does not stand for much credibility. But if he's right, I apologize.

    Didnt CD and Gundy say they value chemistry more than anything else. If this is true, they might have faith in our good citizens like Yao, Howard converting Artest with love and Yani!

    Vince, are you even a Rockets fan?!

    And I would only have artest if malone was still in the league, and I would only play artest against his team, specifically when malone was on the court.

    Wow. Artest? Geterrdone!

    Here's his contract situation:
    2005 - $6,500,000
    2006 - $7,150,000
    2007 - $7,800,000
    2008 - $8,450,000 (Player Option)

    I would assume that Wesley and Sura or James is in this deal. I wonder how desparate Indiana is to get rid of Artest? Would be nice to get a good deal for him.
