    Now we just need to find a cheap PF that can put up 30 a game, and we can waive Ryno.

    I think Weber stays with the team too. Jackson will be gone.

    Why did why have to waive Bobby, I thought we had an open roster spot?

    Is Weber getting off his 2 way contract?

    Obviously deserves to stay, but he really giveth with the 3s and taketh away with the awful D. He's basically Michael Beasley who shoots 3s instead of midrange. Good fit for the Rockets but we still need Luc way more.

    We need BOTH Green and Luc. Besides, Green’s defense has not been bad thus far. He’s not a stopper but he’s not a sieve.

    He’s better than Beasley on defense but he’s no Mbah a Moute for sure.

    I'm really curious how the minutes will be allocated once Harden and Luc come back. We have a solid 9-10 man rotation now.

    We didn't "have" to but both contracts were non guaranteed so it gives us more flexibility under the cap to cut one..... non guarantees have to be cut by the 7th or they become fully guaranteed

    I saw a redditor say the Rockets had no chance due to depth.

    With Green, that is 10 guys who can ball at a nice level.
