Among the interesting tidbits floating around the D-League Showcase this week involved the possibility of the Rockets pairing Dwight Howard with Deron Williams in Houston.
The subject of a Dwight-Deron duo was broached again in recent weeks, with the Rockets and Nets briefly delving into the particulars of a deal that would've sent Omer Asik and Jeremy Lin to the Nets for Williams.
But the the idea never gained any traction and was shelved. Now, it's probably dead for good with Williams undergoing multiple injections in his chronically bad ankles this week.
