    White doesn't count imo since he never played an official game.

    …even Nix’s very best game ended with him blowing coverage on Jimmy Butler and giving him a game winning layup off an inbounds play with .7 seconds left. You can’t make this stuff up….

    Hilton Armstrong and Hasheem Thabeet. Joe Chee was definitely better than Nix.

    But but but Nix is a lotto talent. Lol

    If they called Kelvin Cato “the hallucination”, what do we call Nix? I like “Train Wreck” (ala the Nix hype train) or “Stay-Puft”

    of course I’m just having fun. I bare Nix no actual ill will.

    Two peas in a pod. Both Rockets rejects who I'm so grateful they have moved on.

    Daishan Nix is from Alaska, that is not a joke, it is true.

    He made his Dream Come True playing in the NBA at least.

    Nix looks like he lost some weight in that pic. Or maybe I'm imagining it.

    Man Imma say it. I like Nix, he wasn't great overall but he had his uses. For example, whenever my kids are feeling down, I tell them "if Butterball Nix can make it to the NBA, then you can achieve anything you put your mind to."
