    No warriors, Morey still wants to think about the money ? I think Luc is for Kawaii, Lebron and Middleton. Covington is for Gianns, AD. That is what I think.

    I am not so sure about this. I remember in 2014 the Rockets signed Josh Powell in April and he was playoff eligible

    He’s playoff eligible. Anyone is who isn’t on a roster by end of March 1st.
    That’s why Tolliver was cut last second and that’s why JR and Dion and trying out for Lakers.

    Get him now! According to the media he is half the reason the 17-18 team was so dominant.

    The March 1 deadline is for waivers. A player had to be waived by March 1 to be playoff eligible on their new team. Luc wasn’t on a roster on March 1, so he would be playoff eligible if signed by the last day of the regular season.

    And we won't be able to sign him because Matt Maloney is still on the books.

    Didn't the rockets bring him in for a workout a year ago. he's been out for like 2+ years now. not expecting much here

    This isn't good news for Carroll, whether he's unhappy or the Rockets just don't like it. This actually might reflect more of his situation

    Luc is 34 now. Not ancient, though, and not a ton of mileage the last couple of years. A long wing who’s a savvy defender and can hit the 3 at a good clip. If he’s truly healthy, a great addition. If he’s healthy.

    Correct. It occurred to me that Carroll is not only in the doghouse, but he might even be cut.

    Why hasn't he been signed by anyone -- is the shoulder still a problem?

    knee

    He appeared in just four games for the Clippers in 2018–19 after injuring his left knee in a game against the New Orleans Pelicans on 23 October 2018.[24] He initially underwent various non-surgical treatment options before ultimately undergoing a partial medial meniscectomy on his left knee, with medial femoral condyle chondroplasty, on 28 March 2019.[24] He was subsequently waived by the Clippers on 7 April.[25]​

    They brought Luc in for a tryout this passed summer with Thabo, lol.

    If Luc signs, DMC is not the one that will be released; it will probably be one of the children. Rockets courted DMC when he was negotiating his buyout with the Spurs they wouldn't just drop him.. would they?
