    I see nothing wrong with signing O'Neil. But Houston does not have much money to offer any potential players. $2M a year may not be enough to bring him out of retirement. And pushing 37 ...

    The real question is what happened to Marcus Camby?

    Morey doesn't care enough about winning this year to sign a guy like this. If he agreed to play for free, Daryl might be interested.

    Is there anybody else out there the Rockets can as a backup C that played against MJ when he was with the Bulls?

    I follow the Pistons as well (I was born in Michigan) and unless I'm mistaking they picked up Thabeet and assigned him to their D-League affiliates, The Grand Rapids Drive

    I wonder why we didn't sign a proper back-up C, for example Ed Davis would've been great as a high energy guy off the bench, who is a PF but at 6'11 could've handled C. He did well with Toronto and Memphis and was signed for a 2 years $2 million by LA. There's probably lots of examples like this, but Morey rather sign Dorsey..
