Well, the Rockets and NBA are now in their lockout,
Apparently their talks will begin again this week, but a big money divide has to be settled.

The Rockets big news was Yao retired. So we have to say thanks to Yao for the good years, his great efforts, and best of luck in his future, perhaps with some connection to Rockets.

In the draft I thought Rockets did pretty good, and of course still need a fairly good center which I think they will get in Free Agency once lockout ends.
