Hey, somebody was going to do it sooner or later, right? Good luck, Scott, and thanks for not being a clueless fame-w**** like Royce White. Seriously, the kid showed a little bit in his time with the Rockets/Vipers. Hopefully someone will give him a shot.
I don't care if he is undersized or he lacks a offensive game. He's much less a liability than Royce White. At least this kid plays, shows up in training, doesn't refuse going to the D-League, or shore up behind-the-scenes drama for his own gains. Good luck to Machado. I'm sure there's room somewhere for a pure point guard like him.
All Scott needs to know is that the current starting PG for the Rockets were cut by the same team just about a year ago.
Thank you Machado, for...whatever Good luck with you at...wherever Just remember Rox/Morie have a fat contract waiting for you this summer.
Anybody want to volunteer for the highlight reel? I think I found some footage of him tearing off his warmups in a blowout win over Memphis. In another clip, he high fives a teammate. And I think in this one, he's drinking some water. Good stuff. He's drinking that water with the skill of at least a second or third-year player. No spills, just clean, efficient sipping. Put a beat on that and you're set.
Scotty never really got a chance with the Rockets. He needs to work on his jump shot. Best wishes to him.
