    Rockets trade Dalmbert & #14 to Bucks for #12

    Dang, they're trying really hard to get the pieces to acquire Dwight...

    The Rockets have traded Samuel Dalembert and the No. 14 pick to the Bucks in exchange for the No. 12 pick, Jon Brockman, Jon Leuer and Shaun Livingston.

    This seems like a slam dunk for Milwaukee. The draft pick difference is minimal, Brockman and Leuer are both low-end NBA power forwards (an overflowing position for the Bucks), Livingston was expendable, and the Bucks address their most glaring roster need: a quality starting center. Dalembert immediately slots into the C position ahead of Ekpe Udoh, Larry Sanders and Drew Gooden, and he should easily exceed the 22 minutes per game he averaged for Houston last season.

    Things are actually getting exciting down here, we might land a franchise type player by tomorrow. Word is Howard/DWill/JSmith or a combination of two.

    Why would Howard go to Houston??

    He already had proven he is not a franchise player

    Dwight isn't going to Houston. If they can't get Gasol either this is going to turn into an epic fail for Houston.

    Haha thanks... and I know Dwight came out and said he wouldn't re-sign w/ Houston, but I think it'd be hard to leave that extra bird rights money on the table...

    This is the weakest draft in the last couple years be making all these moves and will be stuck with some shitty first rounders

    I agree with that to a point, but when it comes down to it, I don't think he'll leave whatever team he's on. I think he'll take the max money.

    He hasn't had to make the choice to walk away from the extra $$$$$ yet.
