    Per FOX 26...

    Artest Will not return to Rockets. Only offering 1 year deal.

    Rockets are also interested in Zaza Pachulia and Anderson Varejao

    Morey feels like if money is equal, Gortat will choose the Rockets

    We all see that happening anyway. Not surprising after all.

    Thanks for bringing us out of the 1st round RonRon.

    i, for one, am glad.

    Ron serves no purpose on a potentially rebuilding team.

    They actually said his return is unlikely - they did not say it was definite. But I wonder why Morey only offered a 1 year contract!

    I thought I heard Morey said he felt that if no team offered more money, Artest WOULD return

    It's called cap space in the Summer of LeBron.

    Rockets are only offering a one year deal. I think thats Morey's way of saying "Not interested". I think Ron clearly deserves more than that.

    Also per Mark Berman and FOX 26 tonight, Rockets are looking at/pursuing Zaza Pachulia and Anderson Varejo.
