Basketball Rockets Trade Ariza

[OilMan]

Surprisingly only 5 players moving in the 4 team deal, usually in a 4 team deal there are about 35 players involved.

The Houston Rockets have reportedly sent Ariza to the New Orleans Hornets, the Hornets will send Darren Collison and James Posey to the Indiana Pacers, they will then send Troy Murphy to the New Jersey Nets, who will finish it off by sending Courtney Lee to the Houston Rockets.

The four sides have agreed to the details and are awaiting confirmation from the league.

The Hornets have also reported sent Forward Julian Wright to the Toronto Raptors for Guard Marco Belinelli

Pacers made out like gangbusters in this deal. Best PG they've had since Mark Jackson

The Rockets were salary dumping. I don't think they are done yet

That trade got them under the luxury cap,they might be done with dealing at least for now

 

[OilMan]

The Rockets have some kind of love affair with Lee, even tried to trade up in the draft to get him???? Before this went down, it was being repoted by some media outlets as a "Blockbuster Trade", but i don't see anything in here that Busts My Block

Word on the street around here is the Rockets will make at least one more move or acquisition.
