    Rockets will get New Orleans' first rounder for next season in exchange for Omer Asik, I'm told.

    So they traded Lopez away last year for nothing, only to give up a first rounder for a player of similar caliber a year later?

    NO would have been better off keeping Lopez.

    A first-rounder who is in the final year of a contact that will pay him $8.3m. Houston much think they have a shot at James, while New Orleans clearly has no clue what they're doing as a franchise.

    I'm aware you can't speak to free agents until July 1st. Seems like a pretty crazy move when thinking about doing it just for a chance to chase.

    Especially when they could have gotten much more for him last off season...

    They wouldn't have been able to sign Tyreke Evans then, though. :)

    If they have to get another superstar, hopefully it's Melo. He doesn't help their biggest problem, and they just got rid of a guy that actually played defense.

    Outside of the Spurs fanbase, that Texas-Oklahoma area is devoid of basketball knowledge.

    I don't think so. As much as I don't like Lebron he is a superstar player that could play with anyone in the NBA or on any team and not have a decline. That is rare to say about a player.

    I really doubt this stops teams. Always seems like teams are tampering behind the scenes but never get caught.
