    Lets see in which way they get a chance to sign biyombo or another C
    finally some small fireworks there, it obviously that we luv playing safe choosing vet over young kids.

    How many open spots on our roster now? I guess 1-2 of clemons, frazier, Howard gonna get waived

    With Carroll and Green signing all 15 roster spots are filled.

    3 spots - Tyson, Harty and Clemons are not safe IMO.

    But Frazier and Howard are on 2 Way contracts which do not count towards the active roster of 15.

    Then at least one spot for our C, right after waving 1/3 of them, and see the chances of we getting Hackless:)

    Roster for Thursday vs. GSW:

    PG: Russ, Rivers, Clemons
    SG: Harden, EGo, McLemore
    SF: RoCo, House
    PF: Caroll, Green
    C: Tucker, Bruno, Tyson, Harty

    Need at least 1 more 3-D forward that can play 4/5.

    Would also prefer another ball handling scorer taller than Clemons.

    I think so as well!

    PG: Russ, Rivers, Clemons
    SG: Harden, EGo, McLemore
    SF: RoCo, Bruno, House
    PF: Harkless, Caroll
    C: Tucker, Thabo, Green, Harty

    Would think odd man out is Tyson (Clemons and Harty still young and developing) but the Rockets really love their old players.

    Maybe a little too much.

    *Forgot Thabo!

    Both sides want to make sure the fit is good.

    Also If someone else becomes available the Rockets can clear a roster space.

    It just made sense to fill the roster spaces now.

    How much do you believe Rockets will be on hook for Demarre's contract beyond this season?

    Should have packaged Hartenstein into a trade since he is not apart of the teams plans.

    I see that!!

    Tucker, Wood, Spellman would have been nice.

    I also see that Prince high on this list as well and why Morey also targeted him during trade deadline. Everyone thought their center was the real target.

    Marvin Williams, Keef and Chriss(????) on there too.
