    I'm so glad I had those fake Houston business cards made up last week. It looks like they worked like a charm.

    So I guess Asik asked to be traded, and Houston is still unwilling to trade him, haha.

    They're going to trade him. His value is at an all-time-low because of the trade demand. Are they really going to come out and say, "yes we have to trade him and we are currently bending over waiting for your proposals."

    Why does Nate Robinson keep bouncing around the league like he's nothing? Whenever I see him play, he looks pretty good. Then he came up huge for the Bulls in the playoffs.

    Huge liability on defense, low efficiency. If hes playing hes going to be pounding the ball and taking a lot of shots, most teams have a couple other players they'd rather have shooting the ball. On the Rose-less Bulls he made sense because they needed scoring and a catalyst.

    The Denver Nuggets have reached agreement on a three-year, $15 million deal with free agent J.J. Hickson, league sources tell Y! Sports.

    Why? Odd signing. Is he happy with a backup role? He sure as hell is not going to start in front of Faried.

    Boston is trading Nolan Smith to Denver for Faried.

    Didn't they just get Darrell Arthur as a backup PF for their starting center?... Weird signing for everyone involved

    Apparently Nuggets fans think Faried is getting moved? Just fan speculation of course.

    Pendergraph in; DeJuan Blair out. Not many posters would have thought that would happen a few years ago when Blair was the greatest thing ever who somehow slipped way down in the draft.

    @WojYahooNBA: Y! Sources: The Lakers and free agent center Chris Kaman have mutual interest. http://t.co/OOEEBf5un2

    Still no word on Denver S&Ting Iguodala to GS. Benefits both sides, seems like Denver's only reason not to do this is spite.

    Possible that they've been holding out to keep GS out of negotiating with FAs with their MLE. W's reported to be interested in Hickson. Den swooped on Hickson, perhaps now they'll agree to a S&T so they can go after Monta Ellis or some other bigger name with the TPE.

    Speaking of S&T's, I'm kind of surprised LA's not trying to get Lin in an S&T for Howard. Seems like it would make sense for both, with Lin being a D'antoni PG, and not seeming to be a good fit with Harden. Maybe LA's just worried about having his 8.3M on their cap next year...
