ESPN is reporting that the press conference scheduled by the Rockets to introduce Glenn Rice has been delayed. It appears Rice's foot injury is a bigger question mark then the Rockets anticipated and according to the team, physicians are taking "longer than expected" to examine the results of Rice's physical.

If Rice fails the physical, the trade could be nullified forcing Rice to return to the Knicks, Shandon Anderson to return to Houston and Dallas to lose the trade exception they planned on using to acquire Tim Hardaway.
