The Houston Rockets and Brooklyn Nets briefly discussed a deal centered around Deron Williams for Omer Asik and Jeremy Lin a few weeks ago.

The Rockets have been searching for a trade of Omer Asik for weeks while also looking to unload Jeremy Lin's $15 million balloon payment for 14-15.

Both teams shelved the idea and Williams has since received multiple injections for his chronically bad ankles.

The Rockets are no longer interested in dealing for Williams due to his health.
