    ...... The Rockets have mended the fence with Hakeem. They are still talking about rebounding help, but are reluctant to take on salary. With Hakeem, Shandon Anderson and Maurice Taylor all free agents and several cap spots they have to still account for coming open, the Rockets look to have a lot of room to play this summer... The Pacers have some internal issues, as the young guys want more of a role. Austin Croshere has been something of a one hit wonder, but his base year and size of contract will prohibit any type of a move this season, even though they seems interested in such a move. Croshere was extremely close to signing a deal in Houston this past summer, so you can expect that name to come up again when Houston has some caproom to offset the base year issues this coming summer....

    One year wonder, i don't think so, that would be Isiah's decision to nail him to the bench and play foster or sundov. Austin's game Rocks

    Well, if you sign Croshere, you don't have Mo Taylor. Trying to be as unbiased as I possibly can, I just think Mo brings you a lot more than Croshere does, and I'm happy we have him.
