Rockets waive P.J. Hairston, Le’Bryan Nash & Gary Payton II

He had been considered,

when he was playing in the Lakers while comparing to Lin.

 

24 y.o injury prone hasn't learned to play D, but most importantly faces a 15 game suspension, pot addict and rumoured to not like bball. I will be shocked if anyone claims him at this moment. He has to go overseas and prove himself.

 

Beverley: 5th in the NBA among PGs in DRPM last year (1.01)
Price: 4th in the NBA among PGs in DRPM last year (1.64)

Defense is literally the only thing that's kept Price in the league this long.

 

Bingo!!!!! Rockets screwed up their picks. I'm beginning to think they don't know what they're doing come draft time. Whoever picked Onuaku should be fired.

 

That's surprising. A lot of Suns fans over here in AZ raved about him. Never really saw it though. Better than Ennis and Brewer though lol.

 

Elite scorer is Jimmer Fredette. Like Hunter too, but he's not proven to be elite anything at pro level.

 

Look back at my posts on and before draft day....screaming from the top of my lungs to pick Felder. What a bunch of idiots to pass him up twice in the second round with the dire need at pg. Last time I begged for them to trade for a player was Isiah Thomas. Made several posts literally begging Morey to take the deal for Plumlee and Thomas for T Jones.

 

We need bobby at point at this point with Bev out and waiving progino.

 

Peeps already on the Kay Felder bandwagon?

I wasn't too impressed in Summer League, nor preseason. Acting like he is white Jesus out there or something.

 

So will Isaiah Taylor see any playing time?

 

He was waived aswell.

 

Oh my bad, didn't see his name mentioned anywhere. Was really rooting for him.

 

How badly do we need a pg though vs a big? I mean I guess most people are still thinking we need to play Harden with a pg but honestly we're committing 7M to Bev, 30M to Harden and 15M to Gordon all of whom can play the pg spot. Sure Bev is injured right now, but even then we have a decision to make between Ennis and Brown so I don't know why you think adding another similar level pg would help, and when Bev does come back that guy we picked will be riding the pine anyway.

Unless the dude has star/superstar potential I don't really like spending picks on pgs because there's a lot of backup level pgs on the market you can always get. Also there's another thread where the Cavs are looking for a pg, if Kay Felder was so awesome they probably won't be looking for a pg right now.

 

Waive Brown and sign Goodwin

 

we wish it could happen

 

Just wanted to give a shout out to GP2. If you saw him in the Gleague he has “it”. Still can’t shoot so it wouldn’t work here but hella intangibles. Good for him.

 

I'm just here for the scrubs
