Rockets GM Daryl Morey said that he is not trying to trade Jeremy Lin or Omer Asik, contrary to previous reports. "[Dwight Howard] wants the best team possible and is interested in how we plan to do that," said Morey, after meeting with the prized free agent. "Omer with Dwight would give us the best [centers] in the league in combination. Jeremy is an attacking guard, great in pick-and-roll, a great fit for Dwight." Houston has also met with Josh Smith, who could be an option even if Dwight Howard comes to town, and it's safe to say that (despite Morey's protests) everyone but James Harden is tradeable.
