Most reporters baffled as they already have a very strong backcourt with Jeremy Lin and James Harden, more details later on NST. Rockets not done trading, orchestrate 7 man deal with Phoenix NST has confirmed that the Phoenix Suns have traded Marcin Gortat, their 2014 1st Rounder, Goran Dragic and Hamed Haddadi for Jeremy Lin newly acquired Jeff Teague, Thomas Robinson and Carlos Delfino. This move allows both Marcin Gortat and Goran Dragic to move into the starting rotation and explains the move for Jeff Teague. Hamed Haddadi was waived by the Rockets. Catch the Rockets and their newly acquired pieces on NST on Wednesday against the Nuggets. Good trade? Bad trade? I've had nothing but success with Gortat and Dragic, I don't really like Lin either.

A Rocket's chise? Count me in. Fell in love with the Rockets during the T-Mac/Yao era (sadly derailed by injuries) ... T-Mac's 13 points in 35 seconds is forever seared in my brain, saw that one when it happened on TV and just couldn't believe it.

Anyways, like the trade by why does everyone hate on J-Lin so? I love the guy's game, admittedly I feel he's more a two-guard than a point but he does it pretty well. Dragic and Gortat are good pieces though, with Harden and Chandler there you should be a playoff contender.

Eh... He's talented, but he'll never be as good as guys like CP3 and Kobe, and right after his season with the knicks he wanted offers from different team, plus i hated the media hype of Linsanity and the ESPN crap, really bugged me. Anyways, just finished a game, going to upload it here later.

Rockets lose in yet another close one

The Rockets lost their game to the score of 39-38, one of the people to blame straight up is all-star James Harden,whom shot 3-11 from the field and 1-6 from beyond the arch.


I had trouble with the dynasty table generator, so just go with reading that anyways the only person who did good was Marcin Gortat, who shot 6-6 from the field.

The Beard is gonna have those kinds of nights. He's more Kobe than Durant as far as efficiency goes, I doubt he'll ever crack 47% from the field for a season as a starter. Gortat will usually get his.
