Bringing Camby back in would make as much sense as locking in an unknown player to a $42 million dollar contract after one preseason game.
IF were are hellbent on getting a geriatric player, my vote goes for Spoiler .......................................... Get R Done Morey! ....... ....... .......
Yes this would be an insurance signing. What else could it be? I don't understand why posters think that when we sign somebody mid-season it is to automatically put them in our rotation. Considering that this late into the season most of the remaining pool of free agents haven't been signed for a reason, we can rest assured that most times, for a team in playoff contention, these signings are indeed insurance.

Not that this would be a franchise-altering decision by any stretch, but the Rockets would lose their Bird rights to Greg Smith if they waived him. I imagine that there is at least some interest within the organization to extend Smith a qualifying offer (roughly $1.15 million) and make him a restricted free agent this summer. But if the team truly doesn't view Smith as part of their longer-term plans (whether as a "primary" rotation player or as a backup plan if they were to trade Jones or D-Mo), then I suppose there's no harm in waiving him now in order to add a player who could help more this season.
don't players who go for the buyouts also lose their bird rights? granger, bynum, earl clark, butler, etc
Codman went out on a limb. So I am thinking it will be Granger. Granger will be a great addition when he gets his legs back come playoff time.
