    If you'd have watched either of the 2 Rockets/Kings matchups, you'd disagree.

    He is insane good.

    ESPN's Ric Bucher is now reporting Jackson will likely be part of a deal later today for either Mike Miller or Ron Artest, but that the Rockets are content to keep him if they have to.

    we'll see.

    James for Jackson = wash

    Bonzi Wells for rookie G = outstanding

    I hope they get Artest, they would be the best defensive team if they do.

    And add Artest's offensive abilities, not bad at all.

    With all the offensive teams in the West, not many are very good defensively except for San Antonio. This could prove to put Houston up there with San Antonio as favorites in the West.

    Jackson is way better than James.

    but Wells is better than Jackson.

    James can have pretty stats, but he kills the flow of your offense. He just bring the ball up the floor, dribbles around until there is 3-4 on the shot clock, then shoots a fadeaway 3.

    Who would you rather have Miller or Artest?
    Silly question probably, but as far as the Rockets. You could use both.

    Jackson's talents have faded a bit, he's up there in age.

    James scored 20 ppg just 2 seasons a go. I think he just didn't fit in with this Rocket team.

    We shall see what he brings to a much more up tempo Hornets team. I think you'll see a different player.

    If you can keep Battier in the deal, I rather Miller.

    IF you have to trade Battier, I rather Artest.

    Because we need to keep someone who can guard Kobe and co.

    they are both really, really good 20+ pts scorers.
