A ton of calls are made, but go nowhere, but I guess I owe you one. You reminded me of this one: The Rockets were very much in on talks for Marcus Camby but could not get the Clippers to budge off their demand for Kyle Lowry. I heard a lot of teams called about Scola and more about Chase Budinger. I'm sure more talks will surface, but most are just talk. -- Jonathan)

Actually, I knew that they wanted Martin for months and mentioned him in about every trade story I wrote and I believe in a large front-page graphic we ran. I did not know that the Kings had relented on their refusal to move Martin. I might find out during the day when that changed, but it definitely changed from the position they held for a long time. For that matter, the Rockets also wanted Andre Iguodala. The Sixers refused to move him and did not change their mind. If they had, as the Kings eventually did, I would not have known in advance because I am not a fortune teller or a mind-reader. -- Jonathan)

I read somewhere Rockets offered TMac + Budinger for Iggy and Dal which Sixer rejected.
