I think he means 4 with the frequency of trading down seen in the NBA draft now.

Is the trade official or just conjecture?

True. If I'm not mistaken he can't even verbally agree until then either



Edit: meaning Howard

To clarify, Robinson was dealt for 2 players in this year's 2nd round and 2 future 2nds.

SBNation:

Thomas Robinson is on the move for the second time since being picked in the top five a year ago. He will be dealt to the Blazers for two second-round picks and the rights to two European players, giving Houston enough cap space to give Dwight Howard a maximum contract.

Calderon is a free agent. Calderon is a career 40% 3 pt shooter so he'd fit better than Lin offensively, and can't be as bad defensively as Lin.

8mm/year for Jeremy Lin is pretty bad anyway you cut it.

Lins contract is just over 8M a year in cap hit the next two years. Doesn't change if he's traded.

ESPN SportsCenter - Point guard Chris Paul is expected to verbally agree to a 5-year, $107M extension with the Los Angeles Clippers

So CP3 takes less than max?

Following encouraging meeting with Dwight Howard, Rockets will look not to fall-back position free agents, but to pieces to go with him.

@Jonathan_Feigen
Rockets' next LA meetings will be with Corey Brewer and Mike Dunleavy, accordng to a person with knowledge of the plans.


NBA TV said the Rockets are interested in Iggy as well. I guess that would make Parsons the 6th man if it were to happen. The main thing is that they want a perimeter defender/stopper.

Would much rather have Smoove to pair with Dwight than Iggy.

I'm pretty neutral on Iggy. I think we need someone to run the second team (Parsons), and Iggy would give us a top notch perimeter defender. I won't be broken up if we don't get him either though.

I would think that Smith would command much more than the 8mm cap hold of Asik.

Don't think Atl would be at all interested in 2y20mm of Lin.
