    Whoa! :eek:

    Had no idea it was that major.

    I'm sure T-Rob was compensated for his troubles.

    I like it. Hopefully it's a sign that brooks plans to win a spot in the rotation and be here past this year.

    Ew why switch to a number like 41?

    I guess it might be just me since I was never a fan of basketball numbers being high numbers.

    You just dont ask. T-Rob wanted zero for a reason but he cant say no because he is new and a rookie. Since when does a 3 string PG do this?

    Probably because AB has a long Rockets history... he's played more games with the Rockets than any other guy on the roster

    I'm sure he also paid T-Rob for it, as others have said

    I thought you had to request a number change to the NBA and then wait til the end of the season?

    Why not?

    If Robinson was going to get something out of it why not, obviously it was not as big of a deal for him as it is to you and everyone else here.

    Plus re-read what I quoted, that was pretty harsh.

    Wow some of you guys are tripping, afaik this has always been the way in any sport, if ur the new guy and u want someones number, u negotiate a price with them and buy that number. Hey trob didnt have to trade if he didnt want too, so it wasnt forced or anything. Seriously some of u all cant wait to cuz drama at the slightest movement there is.

    Has this been confirmed as what he had to compensate T Rob with?

    T Rob sure does drive a hard bargain!
