Rockets have offered Kyle Lowry, 14 and 16 for 5 and Tyreke Evans

Alex Raskin: Kyle Lowry is going to get a lot of interest. Yeah, he had injury issues, but coaches love his defense and patience with the ball. Smart guy 1 minute ago

 

Jason Jones: Re: Kyle Lowry. There is still belief among some vet PG is needed. Just not sure Kings do that for No. 5 pick.

 

Rockets getting close to the 5th pick of SAC

Damn Im really excited! Dont know what's going to happen.
Lock if posted already!

 

Interesting..Tyreke and Dragic would be sick. We would have to be giving up a lot to get No.5 and Reke.

 

Buzzkill. Sacramento Queens beatwriter says

Perhaps he's as reliable as John McClain.

 

It's all part if the plan. Sacremento will decline and insert cousins instead . Check and mate!!

 

Sweet, they are trying to get Chuck back. :grin:

 

Chad Ford just said there's a "strong likelihood" the Rockets and Kings get a deal done for #5.

 

[rQUOTEr]"Sacramento, who know's what they're doing. [...] Sources told me last night that there's a strong liklihood that they're going to figure out a trade with the Houston Rockets and that's their guy, Andre Drummond. Even if [the Kings] by draft night aren't in love with anybody at #5, Drummond seems to be the guy that might have the most trade value and they'll select him and contiune to work the phones in early July and see if they can get a better deal for a big man like Andre Drummond. So as of last night -- and look things change -- I think Drummond [goes #5]."[/rQUOTEr]

 

Ford also gave a lot of love to Morey about the Dwight thing.

He says no other GM would think about doing a move so bold or something like that.

 

ew. not a fan of tyreke evan's game.

 

Now that we have #12 I'd say pack #12 and #18 with Lowry for #5 and Hayes Welcome back Chuck!

 

It would be so nice if we could get chuck back.

 

why do yall want Chuck back? All he's going to do is take away time from Donuts and Patterson.

 

Are you a fan of not making the playoffs and sitting in mediocrity limbo?

Changes must be made.

 

Ford doesn't know anything.

Wojo breaks 99% of NBA trades. All other insiders/writers are useless.

 

Yeah and knowing Chuck he will outplay everyone and be a starter again smh.

 

Because Chuck Hayes is a True Rocket. Fake internet fan is not True Rocket.

 

From last night:

The Kings and their fifth pick in Thursday's NBA Draft continue to be the subject of rumors.

So I'll try to separate fact from fiction (as I know it at this hour).

*There doesn't appear to be anything substantial or imminent involving the Houston Rockets. NBA.com's David Aldridge reported the Kings turned down an offer from Houston of the 16th overall pick and point guard Kyle Lowry for the fifth pick and Chuck Hayes.

There have also been the rumored offer of two first-round picks for Tyreke Evans and the fifth pick (which has been refuted by numerous sources).

The Rockets will likely come calling again. But at this hour there isn't a deal the Kings are close to doing with Houston.

*As impressive as Damian Lillard might have been, it doesn't appear likely the Kings would use the fifth pick on him.

*The Kings are still fielding calls about trading out of the fifth spot. Nothing imminent, but it wouldn't be a shock to see the Kings move back. At this stage, everything is still in play.

By time this is posted I'm sure something will have changed. Such is life in the world of rumors leading up to the NBA Draft.
