    Lol you Basketball IQ is very low. Good thing you dont make threads anymore. They traded #12 for a guy who is going to be our franchise player. You think there just gonna cut #16. How old are you 12???

    Kevin McHale did not play center. That's like saying Charles Barkley or Luis Scola played center even though they did not.

    I agree with most of your post but I think the last cut will be between Douglas and Cook. DM does not like to give up on young talent for free and he singed Machado to a three year deal because he sees the guy as someone who has upside. Aldrich (who I think will be a spare) is a young high draft pick center so I think DM will want to hang on to him long enough for an honest evaluation.

    If nothing else, DM has proven that he can move players like Aldrich at the trade deadline once the team decides he really can't play. I absolutely think the Rockets believe Greg Smith has a lot of upside and will keep him.

    I have high basketball iq....i was speaking in the sense that they don't care of draft position ( Morris, Dorsey) cause they not playing and was higher picks and now with the new rookie pay scale rockets management could care less so shut your mouth. Cause I forgot more basketball than you will ever know. Everybody talking noise on a message board

    Draft Position is much considered for a player who was drafted. The NBA has a systematic way of weighing talent and that corresponds to a draft position to a player thus in a common sense to people and they do care about that draft position since they invested on it and will pay the salary of that player for the privilege of owning that players contract if ever they contribute to much higher than their contract ala Chandler Parsons or not (dorsey) and that upside and talent is considered higher the higher the draft position is.

    They never cut any of those guys either so you just sound like an idiot. You have made some of the worse threads in Clutchfans history and continue to say dumb things like the Rockets "might" cut Royce White.

    Also Dorsey was not a higher pick than Royce White. Please quit posting.

    What you are suggesting is throwing away a 16th pick without seeing them play in one regular season game. That's unheard of. A 16th pick is very valuable.

    They TRADED Lamb. A trade is completely different than waiving. Learn more abou this crap before commenting.

    Could they trade White? Sure, why not? Doubt it'll happen, but it's possible. Waiving though? you have to be ****ing kidding me.
