re: Rockets acquire Lou Williams from Lakers for Corey Brewer

Some other positives of this trade for Houston:

The first round pick they gave up was the 27th pick. Their two 2nd round picks they have this year will most likely be in the 30's which makes their late first more expendable.

This trade gave them an extra $2 million in cap space for this summer.

Williams is a great value at only $7 million per year. His contract would be very easy to move to open up more cap room in the summer.

Great move from a front office standpoint to get rid of Brewer's contract and replace with a great value contract and a much better player.
