With the Red94 server completely having gone in the toilet, this will have to suffice for now, on the busiest day of the year, until I can get things back up.
The Rockets traded Shane Battier and Aaron Brooks today, landing Hasheem Thabeet and Goran Drajic (sp?!-could take some time to acquaint myself here) and two first rounders. Overall, I like both of the deals, though it's slightly depressing that we've officially entered rebuilding (without trading Scola...?)
I have greater thoughts on all of this but will probably wait until the real site goes back up.
For now, I'm overall happy with how things worked out. We were probably set to lose both of these players to free agency, so it's nice to at the least come away with the picks and a guy in Goran who is, at the least, AB's equal.
Thabeet is awful--he makes Jordan Hill look like Otis Thorpe--but there is potential. We'll have months to discuss this, and many more of frustration.
More thoughts as they come.
