    I love the guy's attitude but I'm glad Morey is preventing McHale from inserting him into the lineup. His shooting has been godawful this season.

    Who is gonna go ham on OKC/Durant now? Dude seemed to LOVE playing them. Lol

    Best of luck Cisco! A team favorite, just forgot how to play basketball.

    Wow, that hurt me so much. I thought it might happen, I am almost in tears. Cisco gave us some decent defense this year, and even a successful drive to the basket against the Bucks.

    I hope he will join the Cavs.

    Good move, Garcia's done. We should roll him into a coaching or player development role to keep his mentoring presence.

    Papa got his minutes. But since last year, his shot has gone missing.

    He loved being with HOU. That's why he kept signing for the vet minimum. We'll always remember the fear you struck in the heart of Durant in the OKC series. Thanks for being a good soldier.

    Team will miss your music on the team plane. Best of luck, Cisco!

    Turned from a pretty decent shooter to straight out garbage

    Age caught up with him, he didn't forget how to play the game. I like your warm farewell to him.
