The deal will send Kevin Martin, Kenny Thomas, Hilton Armstrong and Sergio Rodriguez to the Rockets for McGrady, Sixth Man Award contender Carl Landry, Joey Dorsey and an undisclosed amount of cash.
Sources told ESPN The Magazine's Ric Bucher that McGrady and Rodriguez would be sent to the Knicks in a three-team scenario sure to feature New York's Jared Jeffries if it comes to fruition.
This is a home run for the Kings who not only get rid of Martin, who will slow the progress of Tyreke Evans but get Carl Landry who has Mr. Sixth man. I have never really been a Martin fan, so I don't like the deal for the Rockets. I'm also happy for McGrady if he goes to the Knicks. Not because I think he will make a lick of difference, but because I just want to see T Mac highlights. I feel bad how Houston has basically shunned him all year, and respect McGrady for keeping his mouth pretty much shut. None of these teams will be doing anything in the playoffs, so this deal is kind of irrelevant.
