    A little green lepricon who resides in a house he built on my right shoulder.



    The source reported it as fact, but since its an unreliable source, i am reporting it as rumor.

    He could be pretty good. You have to remember that he had to compete with Moochie Norris, so it was going to be hard to make the team.

    OK, maybe not.

    My source reported it as fact, too, and he IS reliable.

    Why can't we confirm this?

    BTW, the Knicks also waived Tracy Murray. The bastards!

    The Rockets currently have 14 guaranteed contracts, plus Hawkins and Zimmerman.

    It seems neither Hawkins nor Zimmerman has endeared himself enough to garner the 15th roster slot, and with the injury to Sura, and the least talent on our roster being at the PG slot, it makes sense to add a PG. We tried to sign Wilks back yesterday, so apparently JVG is looking for a waterbug type PG to add to the depth.

    It is not a rumor. Check out the ESPN Link Looks like Zimmerman was waived.

    Anything better than a Mike Wilks type player, would be a surprise.

    Barrett is already on the roster.

    Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Wilks played 20mins on Spurs the other day.

    I certainly trust a lot of more Pop's evaluation, who has a midas touch in picking gems out of other people's trash.

    [ESPN] Houston waives Zimmerman, sign Andre Barrett

    http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/wire?section=nba&id=1911770

    Andre was very good at Seton Hall and may make team as 15th man. Intersting we picked him up this late in preseason after he got cut by Knicks. Preseason stats not that good (1-12 fg)

    That is an old, old, old rumor that seems to have been floated by a new york columnist. It isn't going to happen.
