7/5

7:30 PM@WojYahooNBA: New Orleans has shown strong interest in acquiring Rockets center Omer Asik, w/ an offer likely centered on Ryan Anderson, sources tell Y!

8:00 PM Adrian Wojnarowski ?@WojYahooNBA 1m
No question Ryan Anderson would intrigue the Rockets, but Pelicans may resist moving him without more than Asik in return, sources tell Y!

10:00 @YannisHW: Sources confirm that the Rockets and Pelicans are discussing a Asik-for-Anderson swap.

7/6

AM@ESPNSteinLine: Have it on strong authority Pelicans not only haven't talked to Rockets about Asik sign-and-trade but likewise have no interest in him

3:00 PM Brett Poirier NBA ?@BrettNBA 5m With Josh Smith signing in Detroit, I'm told the Rockets primary PF target becomes Ryan Anderson.

Hoping that is a Houston leak, trying to set the market/reunite Howard and Anderson

It's a good fit, but at the same time Ryan Anderson is a really valuable type of player to have

No, but if we do this we have an extra 3 million in cap room

Eta: do this trade and then sign Carl Landry

Makes sense for both teams. AD doesn't have to play the 5. Ryno and Howard have played well together before. Don't think Houston would do it though.

I might like this if we get something more than just Asik. Sure, we will have a true center, but then we are stuck trying to replace RA. Maybe Demps feels Anderson is more easily replaceable.

Would suck to lose Ryno, but deal makes a ton of sense
