    Thoughts probably are different now after the Harden trade. It's a pretty bad ranking.

    25. Houston Rockets
    Brett Davis-US PRESSWIRE
    The Rockets spent a ridiculous amount of money on Jeremy Lin and Omer Asik during the summer of 2012, as each will be making $8.4 million in 2012-13. Houston acquired them because Chicago and New York were unwilling to overpay for them as restricted free agents.

    Darryl Morey might have to overspend in a similar fashion in 2013 if he wants to land substantial free agents.

    Houston is undoubtedly viewed as the weakest Texas team from a basketball and organization perspective. Any free agents who are interested or willing to play in Texas are more inclined to sign with Dallas or San Antonio.

    The club hit a run of bad luck with Yao Ming's injury and retirement, and really hasn't recovered since.
