    This is ridiculous; he had the entire offseason to do this.

    Tracy McGrady 2.0?

    In somewhat less jokey land - what's Anthony Bennett's recovery timeframe?

    Not too concerned. It's regular season, who cares?

    Opportunity for someone to step up.

    Best time to get this surgery is right after getting a big deal. Smart move by EGo.

    I've been wondering. I guess we will see. I like him but math says he is one of the worst players in the nba

    He was in the midst of contract negotiations. That would have hit his value.

    Is Beasley currently on a team?

    I would sign this guy up even with a healthy Gordon.

    I sincerely doubt that. This is a minor knee scope, not a career-threatening ligament tear or microfracture surgery. Plus, the Rockets knew exactly what kind of player he was and his value to their team before this season started.

    Then, he should wait until the end of this season to undergo surgery. It’s not complicated. Also, a minor knee scope wasn’t going to stop Eric Gordon from securing the bag from either the Rockets now or as a free agent in the offseason.

    I expect Clemons effect to be similar to that of Gerald Green. Side note: Why is this team so guard heavy ?.... James, Russ, Gordon, Rivers, Maclemore, Clemons. We have one playable wing on the active roster. What in the actual F***.
