Houston Rockets: A big trade before the deadline is unlikely

The Houston Rockets excited a massive 14-game winning streak and entered a period where they have struggle to win games.

Over the last 10 games, the Rockets have only been able to muster up three wins against the Lakers, Magic and Bulls. Not exactly playoff level competition. On the flip side, the Rockets struggled against the more talented teams, losing games against the Thunder, Celtics, Wizards, Warriors and Pistons.

Chris Paul and Clint Capela were in and out of the lineup a couple of weeks ago, and now the Rockets have played several consecutive games without James Harden, Nene and Luc Mbah a Moute.
