Can the Rockets use Jamison, or Odom?

    Odom was an absolute cancer when he played at Dallas. No need for that dud.

    Couldn't agree with you more, and also khole will drop ticket sales when she sits front row and we want as many national televised games as possible and ticket sales to go up.

    I understand that we are in WIN NOW mode but I still advocate for finding the next
    Antawn Jamison and maybe the next Odom in Terrence Jones?! Perhaps.

    Odom had problem in Dallas because he didn't want to be trade there. Jamison had issues with MDA's usage of him, e.g., the minutes.

    Look, I know those guy's problem, it's not like the Rockets need to pay a lot to get them, or they will play any significant roles. If they could be got for vet minimum, that means they wanted to be here for the opportunity of win. This team really needs some experience at 4.

    I was thinking about using them as a veteran backup, who can provide 15-20 minutes per game on a good day. Both of them can float around 3pt line to give DH room to operate, and Harden & Lin lanes to penetrate. Both of them can cause match-up issues for teams, and they are good offensive players around basketball, with, or without the ball.

    I don't think neither is interested (at vet minimum) and I don't think they fit the style very well.
