Dalembert and the 14th pick go the Bucks for the 12th pick, Jon Brockman, Jon Leurer and Brockman, sources tell Y!

Shaun Livingston also goes to the Rockets as part of the package, sources tell Y!

Yes, Brockman's so good, they traded him twice. Sorry. Livingston, Brockman and Leurer and 12th pick to Houston for Dalembert and 14th pick.
The Kings have reportedly rejected Houston's offer of Kyle Lowry and the 16th pick for the No. 5 pick and Chuck Hayes.
The Rockets are desperately trying to move into the Top 5 for tomorrow night's draft, but have been unable to do so thus far.
I am confused as to why the Kings wouldn't accept this deal...Lowry is proven and will be a stud for many years to come as he is only 26...Draft picks are so hit and miss and all they give up is Hayes while still getting the 16th pick....seems very stupid of the Kings not to accept that deal in my opinion.
I can understand from the Rockets perspective as they don't have much use for Lowry since they've decided to go with Dragic because of Lowry's issues with coach McHale, so might as well take a chance with a draft pick.
Thunder Add Year To Brooks' Offer, Sides Remain Split On Salary
The Thunder have improved their contract offer to Scott Brooks, including a fourth year to the extension on the table. But sources say the two sides remain apart significantly on salary.
Brooks' contract will expire on Saturday if he doesn't sign an extension.
Sources say Brooks would immediately become a candidate for the Blazers if a deal isn't reached.
Brooks had been offered a three-year extension worth around $11 million. Brooks made $2.1 million in the final year of his deal this season.

The Mavericks, Clippers and Jazz have agreed to a trade in principle that would send Mo Williams to the Jazz and Lamar Odom from Dallas to the Clippers, as long as Mo Williams elects to opt-in on his $8.5 million contract by Saturday.
Williams and his agent are surely gauging interest throughout the league to see what kind of offer he might get if he opts out and becomes an unrestricted free agent, but this deal looks like it is likely to happen. The Mavs would send Odom to the Clippers, who would send Williams to the point-guard challenged Jazz. The Mavs would get a trade exception from the Jazz and be rid of Odom and his contract.
Lakers get Odom, Darius Johnson-Odom from Dal who picked him up 55 overall. Thought Rivers was going to go to the Raptors he had the red going on, seems like the Raptors are in the belief that they can get Nash to come back "home" might even amnesty Calderon to make room for him.
The more I watch of Terrence Ross. Hes a good shooter. I like his shot/release. I hope he adjusts to nba style as if he keeps up his shooting touch then pick wont be bad
lol, some of you guys really make me: ....complaining about the raptors pick, yet suggesting that they should've drafted Drummond....like....They have Bargs, Jonas, Amir, and Davis.....They clearly needed either a SF, or a SG while bumping DeRozan up to SF.
A PG would've made sense too, but they might be confident that they can get Nash.
That said, I personally thought they were going to go with Jeremy Lamb, but hey, draft picks, especially in this draft, are going to be so hit and miss that it's really not a big deal....If they thought Ross looked better, then whatever....It's really a toss up...
Honestly Drummond looks like a bust in the making. I think they couldve either picked Lamb or Rivers. Ross seems like another DeRozan pick. They need someone who has good handles to drive or create on offense. Jose and Barg are set shooters at best
I like what the Hornets did the core of Davis, Gordon (RFA) and Rivers along with Jack, Ayon and Vasquez they should be a decent team maybe even an 8th seed this season.

Bargs really stepped up his game this past season and he's become far better than a "set shooter at best"....

I agree, Andrea was on his way to an all-star spot then injuries happened, he was actually playing somewhat decent defence and rebounding under Casey along with scoring.
