    I've never liked his style of play. Perhaps he has matured.

    He has but I don't think he has well enough due Toth fact that him and cousins were best friends in sac. Maybe it's a move to intrigue cousins?

    Nothing lost really, Machado never proved his worth in the D-league and showed little in a Rockets uniform. He also was way too cocky so bye bye, not going to miss him one bit.

    If you can't even dominate the DLeague, you have no business being on a 15 man roster with a guaranteed NBA contract. Really disappointed Machado didn't show any improvement.

    I don't think he's out of the league just yet, but good luck to him.

    Can't say I'm surprised.

    They gave him time in the D-League, he just isn't ready to play on this team yet.

    Perhaps another team that is PG deficient will give him a shot and time to develop. On the other hand, his inability to score combined with his poor defense is a LOT to fix.

    Best of luck to him either way, whether that's in the NBA or overseas.
