    Yeah. Lopez is just sitting at the end of the bench doing nothing. And the Rockets are getting destroyed in the paint. He would be a BIG help.

    Damn. LA must be kind of enticing for Tyson. BUT we do have CP3. Aren’t they super tight from their NO days?

    Tyson, who I have always been high on, just isnt that good anymore. He can provide on par with nene.

    Interested in Lopez tho

    Tyson Chandler being bought out.
    Will sign with LA.

    Rockets really need a backup center and he would have been a great fit.
    Too bad.

    FWIW...on the latest WOJ pod with Bobby Marks, they bring up my suggest of Robin Lopez as a buy out candidate later on. Not attaching him to the Rockets per se, but saying that to "contenders" RoLo could provide a lot of value. I agree of course.

    He is only 30. He could help this team against BIGs that are bruisers. Adams, Tristan, Drummond etc.

    @Codman @ch44 @cyberx
    Any rumblings of DJ asking Dallas for a buyout? If so, what kind of chance would we have at getting him to sign with us for the rest of this year?
