    This is great news for player development. Why are people upset? Ya a buyout would be more ideal I guess.

    So basically we can just bench him and he won’t complain.

    give all minutes to young guys

    I get that it's important to do right by players to make Houston attractive, but I feel this is overboard. Even if we planned on trading him, we shouldn't announce it. We have completely lost what tiny position we may have had.

    It also mean Christopher won’t be going to G-League @Williamson

    I knew I should have started a “Bet Me” thread fielding in and all wagers that Christopher would not go down

    Yeah but this is next best thing IMO.

    Article reads like Wall will be okay with being benched indefinitely

    Not sure where else I can picture him starting at pg. He’d be a real nice backup, but for that kind of money? Gonna cost us something, for sure.

    Still, probably best for the Rockets’ rep with players that they work with him instead of letting him rot.

    Ya that's the best news out of this. That means there won't be issues with distributing playing time between KPJ and Green. We got our clear backcourt stating group now.

    Tank Commander is too great a burden to put on Dante Exum, but one can hope.

    Eventually Stone was going to have to call up the other GMs and say "hey, he's on the market" lol. Nvm it would become known sooner rather than later through the grapevine, agents, etc.

    It is what it is.

    That they've thought far enough ahead to know what the plan is if a trade doesn't materialize by regular season start date is solid.
