Houston Rockets have a hole at PG.....and could use Jennings. And its a low-risk deal for them with Jennings being a FA-to-be.


TO DET:
SF Kostas Papanikolaou
PF Terrence Jones

TO HOU:
PG Brandon Jennings




DETROIT:
Jackson
KCP
#8 pick
Jones/Ersan
Dre


HOUSTON:
Jennings
Harden
Ariza
Smith/Montejunas
Dwight

We obviously couldn't say yes fast enough, but I'm afraid Jennings just doesn't hold this type of value coming off his injury. I think they'd insist upon including a pick swap (#8 for #18), and at that point I think we pass.

Uh, Terrence Jones also missed most of last season due to injuries....so that point is pretty moot in my book.

Jennings coming off of an Achilles injury is far more serious than anything Jones deal with last season.

Not to mention Jones was playing in all their games at the end of the season and post season, where as Jennings isn't back yet, so it's a much bigger question mark.

Jennings isn't going anywhere until he's back on the court producing.

ideally he embraces a 6th man role and lights up the league while he's here.

Detroit of course says yes, Houston would want a first rounder
