    The Houston Rockets acquired Sacramento's Thomas Robinson, the fifth overall pick in the draft, in a three-way deal on Wednesday night, league sources told Yahoo! Sports.

    The Rockets sent Patrick Patterson, Toney Douglas and Cole Aldrich to the Kings, and Marcus Morris to the Phoenix Suns as part of the trade.

    The Kings give up Robinson, the power forward out of Kansas, Francisco Garcia, Tyler Honeycutt and a future second-round pick to the Rockets, sources said.

    Morris, the 14th overall pick of the 2011 draft, had started 17 games for the Rockets this season, averaging 8.6 points and 4.1 rebounds. Morris averaged 21 minutes a game for Houston.

    But TRob was never a knucklehead and he actually was the fifth pick.

    A 6'10'', 21-year-old physical specimen/rebounding machine for a one-trick pony (2Pat), a stiff (Aldrich), and arguably the worst PG in the NBA.

    Thank you, Sacramento.

    What in the hell did we gamble with? Patterson? Morris? I (personaly) would of been happy with sending both of them off for just expirings and picks, not only did we get that, we got the 5th pick a super athletic 4 with potential. What a steal. Lets give morey a round of aplause guys.

    He's a bust to Sactown sure, but you can't call a player a bust in general after not even one year. Lets be real here.

    Just 400k. Patterson had a massive increase for his 4th year, while 1-2 year increase is minimal.

    I'm no Bima but it looks as if we shaved roughly 1.5 Million next year.

    F Garcia - Team option - waived
    Honeycutt - Unguaranteed

    Thomas Robinson - $3,526,440

    Minus

    Mook - $1,987,320
    Ppat - $3,105,302

    Has there been any indication Robinson has been misused like thisiscaketown said? Or is he considered just not as good as expected?

    I see people get excited about Robinson being the #5 pick, but hell, Stromile Swift was the #2 pick. That's not saying Robinson won't be a great player, but I'm going to not get too excited for now. Let's see what McHale does with him.

    Morey acquired Thomas Robinson, two second round picks, and gained an additional $1.5 million in cap space for this summer for all of that trash.


    Best GM in the NBA.
