Transactions
The Rockets had a busy offseason, trading away key contributors
Jeremy Lin and
Ömer Aşık in July to clear cap space. Houston was after marquee free agents such as
LeBron James ,
Chris Bosh , and
Carmelo Anthony , but struck out on all three of those players. The Rockets also let
Chandler Parsons , another key contributor from the previous season, sign with the
Dallas Mavericks in July, declining to match the hefty offer sheet Parsons received from Dallas. The Rockets would eventually make up for these losses throughout the summer and regular season. As part of the Aşık deal, the Rockets received
Trevor Ariza from the
Washington Wizards in a
sign and trade . Ariza replaced Parsons as the team's starting
small forward . In September, the team traded for
Jason Terry , a former
sixth man of the year with the Mavericks. Terry provided veteran leadership and a spark off the bench for the Rockets. In December, the Rockets acquired
Corey Brewer and
Josh Smith , who both added significant depth to the roster. At the trade deadline in February, the Rockets acquired
Pablo Prigioni and
K. J. McDaniels in two separate deals.
