Houston Rockets general manager Daryl Morey has proven himself to be more than willing to make a trade if he feels it will make the team better, which is part of what makes him one of the best general managers in the league. The Rockets are always mentioned as a team that is interested in making a trade and seem to make a deal every year around the trade deadline.
Last season the Houston Rockets traded for NBA champion Iman Shumpert at the deadline, which was done with the intention of adding a defensive-minded player who is capable of shooting the triple.
