T mac demanding a trade?

Is it possible? Are the Rocket looking to shake up their roster? There is a word that the Houston Rockets are currently looking to trade one of their stars. Tracy MacGrady has been an all-star eight times now. He is the team's leading scorer. But after the summer it is getting a lil bit overcrowded in the Rockets as it come to PG/SG. After attctaning former PG Steve Francis as a free agent and Mike James from the Minnessota Timverwolves. Having on the roster Rafer Alston and Luther Head it is really a lil bit overcrowded for that position and not everyone is getting the playing minutes they wish to have.
Currently T-Mac is injured and its put on the day-to-day injury list. He is expected to return on friday. Team doctor says that there is bone bruise very deep and the recovery is taking more than expected. But could it be something else? Are trade talks going on? There are number of rumors about Tracy's future. One of them is involving the Los Angeles Lakers. This one goes like this:
  • The Los Angeles Send to Houston: Lamar Odom, Vladimir Radmanovich and Luke Walton
  • The Houston Rockets Sends to Los Angeles: Tracy McGrady, Shane Battier and 1st round pick
This isnt very likely to happen but it is very well distribute throughout Laker fans. This trade is salary wise, which means if both team decide to pull the trigger it will go through NBA office.
As it comes to Lakers they have been wanting another All-Star caliber player from the beginning of the summer.
