Take it for what its worth, but this is what I have heard.....Chuck Hayes was supposed to be in town today, but his flight got caught up in a Midwest snow storm. Look for us to sign him soon, maybe as early as tomorrow (Wednesday)
Woohoo! The season is saved! In all seriousness, thanks for the scoop. This definitely beats all the end of the world threads.
at this point, even one extra player in the rotation might help close out a game. ...or this could just be us reverting back to summer league and preseason mode - evaluating talent.
Berman had a segment tonight where JVG was basically criticizing the team as being soft in the paint. He said if someone had hit Josh Smith early, he wouldn't have come into the paint as much later in the game. He said Dikembe was the only one to give them a presence inside. Maybe Chuck Hayes has a mean streak.
any info on chuck hayes....like how good he is/or has been in past? whats he good at? EDIT: oh he played with on our summer team am I correct?
It probably would because JL3's 10-day contract is almost up. We arent going to cut any of our "contracted" guys (Moochie).
Yeah Deke's rep is out there. I loved that play in the Hawks game early where they hit him and grabbed him under the basket and he pulled away, really pissed, his elbow close to his side - and the ref thought he was cocking it to retaliate so he called a T on him. T for just thinking it Deke! The refs sucked big time in that game, just big time! They let the Hawks get away with just about everything.
No. The Rockets received another 16th player roster exception. John Lucas III was also signed to another 10-day deal. "Rockets sign Hayes, Lucas" .... hmm, sounds familiar.
