    How come you make it seem like the Rockets have traded a first for all of those players?

    -Rockets traded Aaron Brooks for Jordan Hamilton straight up.
    -Rockets traded Isaiah Canaan and a 2nd round pick (from Denver) for KJ McDaniels.
    -Rockets traded Troy Daniels and three protected second round picks for Corey Brewer in a 3-team trade.
    -Rockets traded a lottery protected 1st for Terrence Williams.

    Why don't you say "Pick traded for a bum like Shane Battier, Ron Artest, Jordan Hamilton, Ty Lawson, and Lou Williams " so you can at least be a bit more historically accurate?

    What would it take to bring back Luc? Would Chriss get it done. Salaries are roughly the same..

    I think you have to look at it like this, is the incoming player better than Corey Brewer? If its questionable, then I rather keep the first round pick and sign Brewer for the vet min.

    I'd either keep it or we can prob trade it and some bum for someone decent, like we did for Lou Williams a couple years back. If we're still out of the playoffs at the deadline, then keep it.

    Yes, trading it for a Lou Williams type might be all right. Do the Rockets have a second pick in 2019, or has it been traded? Another pick could be useful too, for another Melton type of player.

    trade all the picks and then some for Zion. He looks like the league's next Shaq/Barkley hybrid.

    I just pray he goes to a team I can root for. Preferably in the East.
