    If Brockman stay injured, we can keep +1 at roster.

    So +2 cuts.

    Livingston, Brockman, and JJJ(I hope he stays though) are next. if we send RW down to Dleague, will he be counted in the roster?

    Wrong. Injured players and designated D-League players count toward the maximum players (15) allowed on a roster.

    Rockets have 3 more cuts to make. Assuming we don't make any trades, the remaining candidates to be cut are:

    Shaun Livingston (what's he got left? )
    Jon Brockman (likely--what's his value anyways? surplus F)
    Gary Forbes (Least Likely?)
    JaJuan Johnson (likely...surplus F)
    Scott Machado (unlikely...but with emergence of Tony Douglas?)
    Greg Smith (Center makes him valuable but...need a 3rd cut)

    I'm guessing its Brockman, johnson, and Smith....

    Or...trade for a back-up C?

    Delfino will probably float between the 2 & 3 getting close to 20 min/game.

    Not sure about Motie at the back-up C spot. Will be interesting to see if McHale keeps plugging DMo in at the C spot throughout pre-season. Would rather see him at thForward, where he is comfortable, with spot minutes at C depending on match-ups. I still think our actual backup C is not currently on the roster...

    Sounds right, though I legitimately have not seen any flashes from Smith for quite some time.

    If we cut jjj, the courtney lee trade doesn( looks good. We receive a nice 2nd rounder but we take jjj salary. The camby trade was better

    Thought about getting season tickets, but now I won't. Can't believe Fomey/Camogg is over.
