    League sources said Monday that the Rockets have put guard Kevin Martin in at least two trade packages, and it’s believed that the Rockets are also shopping guard Kyle Lowry, who started at point guard before being sidelined with a bacterial infection that caused him to miss almost a month of the season.......
    One league source said the Rockets hoped to make deals for the additional Draft picks using existing players, so they would have as many as four first-rounders they could put in a package to Orlando for Howard. One potential deal, according to a league source, would send Martin to Minnesota–presumably for the Wolves’ 18th pick in the first round–where Martin would play for former Rockets coach Rick Adelman

    Kevin Martin hasn't seen the ray of light for a long time
    Time to let him play somewhere else

    I, Herro, support this measure. That's value + $ shedding.

    Since the new rules targeting offensive players trying to get to the FT-Line, K-Mart is practically useless, also i hate his game. He would be perfect for Utah

    I wonder if Portland would bite on Lowry and Utah pick for #6?

    I think that would be good for everyone - Minny would benefit and so would the Rockets.

    A win win deal.

    If you can get the #18 and have Minnesota absorb most of Martin's salary with their cap room ... I'm on board. Just depends on what else is out there.

    It's nice to be playing alongside Wubio, Love and Pekovic.

    Will the B roy signing be affected, or are they expecting Roy to take a back seat.

    The Houston Rockets are shopping everyone. Kyle Lowry, Kevin Martin, Samuel Dalembert, EVERYONE. Even their mascot, Clutch, is on the block.

    Which isn't true since he was getting the same calls as always in the end. The only difference being he was tentative at the start, ie wasn't flopping for them.

    I think it has to do with the fact that he is overpaid. Damn I'm all for Dwight and what not, but it sure would be nice to have 4 first rounders in this draft....:(
