    Do we keep him or let him go? I like him but after Lowry comes back he wont see any minutes except maybe some garbage time.

    Can't we just keep him? We are at 15 players and I think we are under the LT enough that I think it won't effect signing him for the rest of the season.

    I think he has definitely shown enough to keep around.

    Keep him. He's a true combo guard, so he can get minutes at both the 1 and 2 which should allow him to find maybe 10 minutes per game... and he's a great third string backup, too.

    He is kind of a goofy looking player, but he has done quite a bit in the minutes he has been given. They should keep him for the remainder of the year.

    We are pretty far under the luxury tax after the trade, I can almost guarantee his contract will be picked up for the rest of the seaosn.

    KEEP HIM! Lowry's still probably ain't ready to come back yet. we need Temple. he's versatile and can play both two guards spots and maybe some 3. very good defender and another asset to the team.

    True combo guard who can't shoot.

    Bye bye Garrett - thanks for the 'memories'

    (he's flat out NOT an NBA talent for mine - not even in the 3rd string role)

    the rockets wont spend the money on signing him for the rest of the year if lowry is coming back soon.

    conroy can still be signed to his second 10 day contract. i expect that might happen.

    his defense alone is worth a signing for the rest of the year

    Personally, I've been more impressed with Temple than Conroy.

    it would wise for RA to keep him at least the duration of the season, what else is behind Brooks rite now?
    Bill said the swelling in Kyles ankle hasnt gone down so hes likely not comin back soon
    besides that Temple is a nice lookin player a defensive mind 6-6 PG is a rarity in this league hes def an assest to keep around a bit longer
