Around the NBA trades...NON Celtic trades

Hope its ok to make a thread for "non" Celtic trades.

Looks like Thomas Robinson just got shipped to the Rockets for a future pick! Great deal for Houston!!!

[rufo4100]

The Kings have reportedly traded PF Thomas Robinson, G/F Francisco Garcia and F/C Tyler Honeycutt to the Rockets in exchange for Patrick Patterson, Toney Douglas and Cole Aldrich.

here is one of them

I like that trade Houston made, i think TRob is going to be a nice player... Harden Rob and Asik is a nice core that compliments each other well

[Lucky.]

I wish we traded for T-Rob

[B'sCeltsPatsSox]

I love that trade for Houston. Why didn't DA try for that lol?

[rufo4100]

IMO Houston gets Trob for fairly cheap. Good trade for Houston.

[Corey]

Wonder if Ainge knew about T-Rob being available for that cheap..

[Kucka]

If I were a Kings fan I would be outraged. Why would you trade a young talented player, whom you have under contract for another 4 years for decent money, for essentially average role players?

Does anyone even have a guess because I am stumped by that.

Rumors: Nets secure a Kris Humphries-for-Ben Gordon deal? http://bit.ly/vIcV9Q


AND

Marc Stein‏@ESPNSteinLine

RT @HowardBeckNYT: Received an emphatic denial that Nets have agreed to any Humphries/Gordon deal. They don't want Gordon, period

The Kings deal.... I didn't think they would do anything with ownership in flux.

Now, I'm wondering if Cousins, Thompson, Evans might actually be available after all and if DAnny has any interest.

I would assume DA figured he had a very similar player to Robinson already on the roster in Jared Sullinger. Having both even though Sully is hurt this year would probably be unnecessary. Agreed Sullinger has injury problems so probably rather have TRob. Also agreed that Houston got a steal in this trade.

Just for perspective

Robinson 6'10" 240lbs

Sullinger 6'9" 260lbs

Agreed, nice deal for Houston.

Funny tweet from Adrian W.....NBA GM's are "down to ******** text messages from each other". Looks like no deals might be made at deadline....guess well find out in the next couple of hours!

I cant post twitter links from my work!

Lame trade deadline this year. No earth shattering deals.
