Houston signed Free Agent Jim Jackson and also traded Glen Rice for Utah's Amaechi.

First off, I think that the signing of Jackson was alright but when they traded Rice away...I was like,"Man- that's not cool!" Utah getting Rice...does that mean Rice could start on their team? I don't think Ameachi will do much in Houston...at least not for a while!

btw- the article, by my understanding states that Houston gets a second round pick...but Utah gets a first round pick...wtf? Can someone tell me wats goin on?

Rice wont start, the SF-spot is taken by kirilenko or harpring(if stevenson plays SG), but im thinking bout starting dynasty mode with utah so ill make kirilenko the next nowitzki and revive rice as sixth man of the year :D

The Article

Good trade for Houston...feel bad for Rice though, he was one of my favorite sharp shooters...ah what age can do to one's game. :(

good deal for Houston, as Swa said...he was one of my favorite sharp shooters to, just a small number of years ago, and now he is forgotten. But Houston really improved from this. Not only did they get someone who can play behing Yao Ming, but also a strong veteran G/F who still can produce
