    It's Michael Carter-Williams

    The Carl Herrera misspellings of player/owner names in thread titles continues.

    It’s for league minimum, there is no downside

    No option for "DOESN'T MATTER" or "DO NOT CARE"?

    I didn't vote, at the moment I don't but we have disliked alot of moves and signing in the past and they have turned out to be good moves, I trust morey and MDA and will see how this plays out.

    True. The only player in the league who would have a downside on a vet min contract is Dwight Howard.

    I like him as a backup PG. Definitely needed one in Games 6 & 7.

    Well, we don't really know what his role is going to be. I'm hoping he would be maybe our 4th string PG. Basically taking over for Bobby Brown. No offense to Bobby Brown.

    Rockets going to have to take risks, some big risks at this point. MCW rightfully won rookie of the year years ago, he deserves a look.

    Like the depth of another ball handler who can run the PNR and has good length for the position.

    Low risk, High reward.

    I trust D’antoni with a decent PG. He shouldn’t be asked to do much but handle the ball in minimum situations.

    Kid hasn't shown the ability improve. Got comfortable with his rookie of the year award and never tried to improve or get better. I am hoping we can use him as a filler at the trade deadline for someone that doesn't suck.

    Being around this system will help him. He will need to get the gym ASAP and start working on the corner 3 exclusively. Most of open looks will come from that area. H-Town Crazy! Go Rockets!
