Rockets sending Wells to Hornets?
Quote:
The New Orleans Hornets have been determined to get Chris Paul a backup that'll ease his burden, fearful that he is logging just too many minutes this season.
For that reason, the Hornets are seriously considering a trade with the Houston Rockets that would bring point guard Mike James and Bonzi Wells to New Orleans for Bobby Jackson, Adam Haluska and Marcus Vinicius, two league sources said Wednesday night.
The emergence of rookies Aaron Brooks and Carl Landry have made James and Wells expendable in Houston. Jackson has struggled this season for the Hornets, and Haluska, a rookie, and second-year forward Vinicius haven't cracked the rotation.

Deal is confirmed here:

Memphis got involved somehow but only in a minor role.

Re: Rockets sending Wells to Hornets?
I dont see why the Rockets trade with a division rival they're actively competing with. It's not like one team is sorry, they're both trying to one up the other and then they work on a deal together.
The Hornets win out easy here, Wells was underutilized in Houston but he keeps the Hornets in the top tier if he plays like I think he's capable of. James is a good backup too, instant offense. I just don't understand this from Houston's perspective.

Re: Rockets sending Wells to Hornets?
I don't get this trade for the Rockets. They're helping out a division foe. Pretty dumb if the Rox do this.

Re: Rockets sending Wells to Hornets?
New Orleans got the much better deal here.

Kobe is not having Jordan's PPG because Kobe isnt selfish as Michael Jordan. He plays for the team where as Jordan played only for himself.
