The Rockets didn’t make any significant moves. Some were happy, some were not.
Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the NBA. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Houston Rockets fans and fans across the country. Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys.
The Houston Rockets did essentially nothing at the NBA Trade Deadline this year. They made a few minor moves on the fringes and came out of it with a couple future second round picks and Cody Zeller, and that’s it.
With the team cotending for the NBA Playoffs and playing better than most thought, even with a recent losing streak, some felt the Rockets should make an aggressive move in the hopes of making a real run. Some felt — including Rockets GM Rafael Stone, obviously — that Houston was better served standing pat. So what did you guys feel?
It was a pretty close race, but as you can see, a slim majority was satisfied with Houston’s do-nothing approach. I personally would have liked the team to grab an extra shooter by moving a bench piece — Jae’Sean Tate maybe — but I’m not terribly upset that they didn’t.
That’s it for this week. We’ll be back soon with another Reacts.
