    That is all we will get for Lowry? It better have 0 to top 3 protection only.

    it sucks that the nba has to be this way, not only does it hurt for houston but for other 20 teams. F' stern. But panzers fully welcomed!

    Sounds like it's Scott Machado's time to shine in Houston!

    Good step towards tanking.

    That pick had better be unprotected. It looks like we're blowing the team up, which actually makes me feel much better about Dragic walking. Tank city!

    I threw out the idea of trading Lowry to Raptors yesterday for a Lottery pick, but I said that I didn't think they would do it. I have to admit, I like the fact that I was wrong. Definitely a win win for both teams. The Raptors finally get their point guard after losing out on Dragic and Nash. The Rockets turn a disgruntled PG into a Lottery pick!

    New direction. I'll gladly welcome it. Plus next year will be exciting for the young guys. Can't wait to see what'll happen.

    This has been one hell of an off-season. Rockets could go either way.
    They could either go full-tanking or acquire Howard. This lottery pick only increases their chances of landing Howard or they can blow it up by trading Scola and K-Mart next.

    Well I'm glad this team is heading in one clear direction instead of lingering around in the upper bottom or lower middle.
