I don't think any major ones, just maybe a minor upgrade to the bench? They have a good starting lineup with Alston, Wesley, McGrady, Swift, and of course Yao. It was all the injuries and lack of playing with each other that was this team's downfall. I think they will be a playoff team next year, and the following year that they can be light contenders for a title.
There have been rumors mid way through the season that had houston giving up tmac for pierce,but that rumor has faded. Another one is Swift being traded to Chicago for Chris Duhon, which i really hate. Stromile can play if van gundy gives him a chance.

My friend was crying when he found out francis was traded. Now look where tmac and Francis ended up.

Much better teammate, much better fit with Yao, made up for what Francis lacked.</div>I love tmac, he is my favorite player. I'm jsut saying where they ended up. tmac has back problems and francis is dying his career in New York.
