    He's been inactive in favor of Terrence Jones. JB don't have the cojones to put Jones or Smoove on the inactive list.

    I agree to play Goudelock. If we him from China and gave him a 2 year contract just like Beasley, he should get a chance to play and earn his worth. Are we saving him like we did last year with KJ McDaniels?

    The small sample that I was able to see from Goudelock, although in a blow out win against the Grizz was that he can play the PG position now. Like he said before he left the league he needed to improve his overall game and not just be scorer. Hoping that he gets some PT with just 12 games left and with JB as the HC I just don't know.

    He has some post-entry problems. Other than that give him a shot.

    Glad other people are saying this too. He looked good when he got minutes. He can really shoot the 3. New blood has been good for this team. Turn him loose.

    JB needs to play him. Him and Beas play well together too. Goud has that sniper lookin 3, and he's VERY quick. I'd play this fool over T-Jones and maybe Brewer, anyday.

    What if this whole time he could've been producing like Beasley? Guess we'll never know.

    I really don't understand this team at times top to bottom

    We constantly cry for good shooters and snipers and then when we have them we either let them go or underutilize them from Troy Daniels to Thornton to an extent to Goldilock now

    Instead we'd rather have a bunch of mediocre guys jack up 3's after 3's

    This... I put him on my active roster in 2k and had to put Jones in the reserves. It's a pretty far fall from grace at that point, but there's just too many dang pf's on this team now. Harrell is the guy who should be playing, but can't find minutes with D-Mo and Beasley both playing so well.

    Ridiculous that Goudelock is not on the active roster. No reason at all for TJ to be active. He is not going to see any playing time ahead of DMo/Beas/Harrell/Capela, or small ball guys Ariza/Brewer/McDaniels.

    Has anyone ever considered that Goudelock, who has not been in the NBA since 2013, might not be a very good player? He's an undersized shooting guard trying to play point guard and from all the information I can gather it would appear that he is also a bad defender.

    His contract doesn't become guaranteed until Aug 1st. So Rockets can use him as salary filler in a trade until then.

    I guess I'm in the minority but I really like Goudelocks shot.

    JR, what do you use for Twitter on your computer?

    The Twitter app for windows is driving me crazy because I can't embed like I could on my old app.

    It's disappointing that free agency has over-valued so many mediocre players...i think the right way is to build through the draft...at least their salaries are capped for a 3-4 year contract

    I guess, in the end, he wasn't... just right.
