Exactly. And KJ has insane athleticism... waaaay more than Brewer or Ariza. Would be silly to not use KJ.
i'd like to see if KJ or nick can get in the rotation during the playoffs to play some D. prigs and terry aren't cutting it. harden runs the point on O, we just need someone who can defend at the 1 and spread the floor.

Should be our back up plan if brewer commands lots of money, but I do think we should sign him regardless
Brewer is likely gone after the season. He may command a lot more money than Morey will pay him. So KJ may be ready to step it up.... With Lull and KJ, there are two guys to add to the playing rotation with young legs.
KJ did a great job defending Curry this year when he was on the Sixers. I'm surprised the Rockets haven't given him a look this postseason.
He still won't play, but apparently he might be back. <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr"><a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Rockets?src=hash">#Rockets</a> KJ McDaniels (elbow) hasnt played in playoffs, but is listed probable tonight (previously out & quest'able).

Thanx for the info. But yeah I thought it was his hand too not his elbow. But maybe I confuse it with all the other injuries of Rocket players.
