General manager Rafael Stone made an interesting decision to stand pat and not make a deal at the NBA trade deadline in February.

According to several reports, the Rockets were interested in landing two-way prospect Mikal Bridges. The Nets refused to depart from their starting two-guard despite Houston's strong offer.
