    Probably saved us a few games while Dwight was out. Good young player that I wish we could have kept.

    Bye Tarik. Good play for a rookie and seemed undaunted at filling Dwight's shoes for almost a month's worth of games. Thanks for the wins and I hope you can find a good team that'll give you time you deserve!

    I will miss his hard work & hustle -- really hate to see him go, tbh.

    Hope this works out for the best for black. He probably wouldn't have gotten much pt here, even if we had found a way to keep him. I really enjoyed rooting for him this year.

    good luck TB. Hard working player who 32 teams passed up twice in the NBA draft. (including the rockets.) But now has shown he has a place in the NBA. He should thank the Rockets as much as they thank him. Good luck .

    He helped us win some games purely through hard work and hustle, and competed every night as a 6'6" C

    The kid is probably going to make a good living playing basketball somewhere.
    Glad he got exposure here. His career might follow Dorseys and get two years guaranteed some day.

    I would have dumped Dorsey, but it is all about the money which Morey should not have given to Dorsey.

    Very humble guy and talked well in the interview.

    He also appreciate the chance the Rockets gave him too.

    Good energy guy and hopefully he will be picked up by a decent team.

    Played his ass off. Deserves to be on the roster over Dorsey. Understand why he's the odd man out though.

    Dorsey better pick up his game...quick.

    Going from starting on a contending team to waived. That sucks, but he won't be on the waiver wire for long. Unfortunately for Black and fortunately for us, we will have the deepest front court in the NBA once Jones gets healthy.

    Not that Black is anything special, but it kind of bums me out that Dorsey is here instead of him.
