    What did we get out of him, yeah a great post-season. I think this guy has talent, he did average 10 points with the Grizz ( but... that dosent say that much.
    IMO, he could be a good backup just as the injury proned C-Rod.
    Tell me Does T-mass have a future with the Roxs.
    If he dosent, what trade should he be involved in. Hypotheticly!

    I don't think he'd be of any trade value, because he never played any this season. Also he is a free agent, so that would make a trade more difficult. However, I've read lately that Tmass may indeed have a future here. Rudy is said to like him and may bring him back as a 12th man. We all don't even think of Tmass as a part of this team, but what you need to remember is you never really got to see him play. I remember him in Vancouver. He could be a decent bench player I think if he can stay healthy.

    Although he was hurt most of the season Mass is a nice backup, Rockets should keep him.

    why not try to sign one of the following free agents? Gary Trent, Keith Closs, Maurice Taylor, Travis Knight, Tim Thomas,Joe Smith, Kendall Gill, Kurt Thomas, Bo Outlaw, Corie Blount, Brian Grant, Corliss Williamson.

    i think the rocks could sign one of these guys.

    Chavodel8 - my thoughts on your suggestions:

    Gary Trent = might be good, but alot like KT

    Keith Closs, Kendall Gill = cancer

    Maurice Taylor = Cancer who can't rebound

    Travis Knight = Stiff breeze and he falls

    Tim Thomas = Probably too expensive

    Joe Smith = gets the exception from Min. this year

    Kurt Thomas = Would be great at the right
    price

    Bo Outlaw = If we could afford him

    Corie Blount = If he's cheap enough

    Brian Grant = Out of our price range

    Corliss Williamson = remember Walter Berry? (i.e.) good scorer within 2 feet, but not much else

    I think Massenburg would be a better choice than most of these guys (except Grant & Outlaw, who become instant starters).
    The problem is, if we draft a PF, and keep KT, he becomes the third PF, and he can't play C or SF much. He does, however, add to a young team like the Rockets when he isn't playing through is team attitude, toughness, leadership, etc.

    The RB part is correct but if was a player and on the CLippers id be the AIDS virus to get the hell out of there lol.

    so its not fair to say he is a team cancer.
