People are already giving Casspi **** on here. Can you imagine if we cut someone just to free a roster spot to vet min. Hedo and he plays worse? All types of hell will break lose on this forum.

Warmly welcome! Houston magic to the finals 2014. Just have to trade Asik for lee and we'l be golden.
Give him a chance. He has great chemistry with dwight especially with the PnR. its not like garciaa doing anything anyway. when his shots not falling hes useless. atleast with hedo you have someone who knows how to run the PnR with dwight

How can you confirm a player is in fact "washed up" without actually seeing him play? Thats a new one for me
When said player who's in his 30's can't even play for one of the worst teams in the nba, can't get traded and gets past waivers in 30 minutes you can assume that player is washed up.
i agree he is washed up, but i don't think he got playing time b/c Orlando is full of young F talent.
Watched every Turkey game this Euro Basket, he was the worst player of the tournament by far. Unbelievably bad shot selection, horrible defense, no motor, nothing. The problem is he obviously thinks he's still a great scorer, so you see him jacking up terrible shots and trying to carry games, he doesn't realize how washed up he is. Should honestly retire, bad D-Leaguers bring more to the table than him.
Lots of players clear waivers, and lots of vets don't get playing time due to a change in direction from their team. Doesn't make them washed up. I can't think of how hedo could be worse for our roster then brewer. Hedo can still contribute offensively and hit 3s. There's nothing to lose really. I'd be in support if we gave him a shot.
