Live broadcast on December 20 according to a report by Kelly Iko, a reporter from the Rockets, the team and insiders in the league revealed that the rockets were more inclined to send Eric Gordon away than at any time in the past two seasons. An Eastern Scout also said that the possibility of the rocket sending Gordon away was very high.
Despite this, the Rockets still insisted on their assessment of Gordon’s value. The rockets are more interested in getting a young player or a future first-round pick, rather than a last-round pick next year. If the Rockets could get such an offer, team sources said they would send Gordon away now without waiting for the trading deadline in February.
