Thanks for taking the vet min for the betterment of the team, Austin. Enjoyed some of his performances for us, but he’s not a great fit for this team.
Not gonna hate, he had good moments, I appreciate his contributions over the years. Good luck with the Knicks, he might start over there and get burn he wouldn't have here.
Appreciate what he gave us especially playoff runs. Felt like he had the potential to be a more consistent bench scorer for us but he was too passive majority of the time.
I think he exceeded expectations in Houston based on his contract. Seems like a reasonable deal for the Knicks. We weren't gonna pay more than the minimum and I think we were ready to move on from that old rotation.
Very disappointed I really liked Rivers passion and commitment on the team. he was my second favorite player on the team besides Harden the last 2 years. I hope he does well in NYC wish him nothing but the best.
He must have really wanted out of here bad if he went from one dumpster fire to a bigger , longer burning dumpster fire.
He did his role for what he was paid. Not sure what else you guys wanted for the minimum tbh could have gotten more money and playing time but took a paycut to contend with the rockets. A lousy attitude like you guys got is why players don’t take discounts to play here. wish him the best
Meh. Rockets are hard capped and could only afford to offer him a vet min, Austin got a 3 year 10 mill deal in NYK. Personally glad he’s out, he wasn’t a consistent enough 3PT shooter for our system.
