Talking points — What readers are saying

Re: Rockets' deal takes twist
"Some of you are dumb as a box of rocks. You just got Martin, Jeffries, picks from the knicks, Hill a top 10 pick, and partridge in a pear tree for a sixth man and a broken down has been. You guys are MORONS! I love Landry but you have to see this is the best we could have ever gotten. PERIOD! Thanks Morey." — acbasurto

Re: Rockets' deal takes a twist
"I knew the deal wasn't done. Ok, I have to admit I was P.Offed when I first saw the deal with Sacramento. However, after seeing the 2nd deal including the Knicks, I'm pretty happy." — Lemons
