    Sorry I didn't follow every post in this thread. How much did we paid Tau to buy out his contract? Can he really play for Rockets yet?

    I believe the Rockets are only going to pay 500,000 and Scola will pay the rest. He is currently negotiating his buy out trying to get it lower than 3 million ( I think) so we don't know exactly what he will pay.

    Yes he can play for the Rockets just as soon as it's finished.

    Thanks for the info. Li Ning should go after him to endorse their shoes. Argentina sounds like a promising market.

    I'm rapt. This guy although not the shot-blocker we need, will provide a 3rd offense outside of Yao & Mac, hustle and seems like he'll be a good teammate. Very humble and down-to-earth. I can't wait for the season to start!

    I am welcoming this guy with open arms. I checked out some videos on him, and he has some great speed. He has great height, and I agree with Adelman, will help out Yao Ming. Hopefully Ginobili taught him a few things in Argentina. :)
