    Some time ago. http://www1.nba.com/rockets/fans/carrollresponds_010306.html?nav=ArticleList

    I just wanted to record it for future reference. We still have the rights to Venson Hamilton.Q: Where are (former second round draft picks) Venson Hamilton and Tyrone Washington? Do you ever plan to bring those two in?

    CD: We brought Tyrone back to our summer leage team and we were going to with Venson Hamilton as well but he had an injury suffered overseas. I understand he's well and we may look at him this summer. We released Tyrone Washington and let him try out with other teams, although he didn't get on with anybody. We still have the rights to Venson.

    I think that title may warrant an additional exclamation point.

    I was very impressed with Tyrone's production at the Revue... That's really too bad that we let him go.

    But it sounds like they recognized his contribution, knew he wasn't going to make the roster, and freed him up as a courtesy to him.

    He may have even requested it...

    I can't believe it, I mean he only had two seasons to make the team.

    I thought the news was worth a few extra exclamation points but I'm not really the demonstrative type and I didn't want to bring too much attention to myself. So I left it at 3.
