    We need rebounding and lobs badly until Clint gets back. Nothing bad about this move.

    Get rid of Chriss for f's sake though.

    Can't we just keep House stashed on the Vipers and bring him up in late March if we need him?

    I posted about him just recently on a back up C option thread. Thought he would be a good replacement for our current needs.

    I've been saying for YEARS Faried is who we needed. Glad the Rockets listened

    Defensively? Well, he's not much of a defender, but there aren't alternative options that can defend available. Offensively, energy guy roll man who can finish different ways around the basket and also finish off one or maybe two dribble moves after the catch and get to the line. Yea, that part is definitely a good fit at C for the Rockets

    once this team is healthy and gets rolling with all their pieces collectively its going to be a joy to watch.

    and for those who aren't familiar with him he's not a pf on this team. he's the backup center houston desperately needs

    Farried is a guy just like PJ who a lot of Houston fans have coveted. He's basically Montrezl before there was a Montrezl. I haven't seen him play in a while. Low-Key thought he was dead (jk,jk). A lob threat who can rebound and is about that scrap life. Harden is going to make people think he is the missing piece just like Austin and House before him.

    I'm off to watch old Faried highlights.
