    Rockets will be very short-handed. Martin out. Camby can't play until players in deal get to Portland.

    none of the guys portland traded for will get mins if their rosters stays healthy.

    they're only 3 losses behind the rockets. i wouldn't be surprised if this was planned.

    Why would Portland try to get in the playoffs though?

    Hasheem probably got lost on his way to the airport and Jonny dribbled his suitcase off his foot.

    Players have 48 hours after a trade to report and take physicals. Guess they were not hustling over.

    just got courtside tickets on stubhub for a pretty decent price.

    looks like we will be shorthanded but I will cheering on the Rockets from behind their bench. I will be rocking a Little Caesar's era logo shirt, yellow and red championship years hoodie , and a red and white draft day hat with the new logo.

    leaving out the pinstripes. let's go Houston

    why wouldn't they? they're already loaded with first rounders who are either overseas or can't even get mins off the bench. they don't need another middling first rounder which is what they'll get if they tanked now.

    after re-signing batum they'll have around 20M to go after deron williams. making the playoffs is the best way to sell their team to a superstar free agent.
