    I voted no, because I'm not sure how his behavior will be like, but I want him to succeed 100 percent within the team concept.

    He can be a lesser-MCW.

    The Rockets are in desperate need of NBA level rotation players. Rivers is that. He is also a douche.

    Austin Rivers isn't good, but he is our only option at the moment for serviceable depth. This all comes back to Morey's moronic decision to not address backup point guard this offseason. I like the signing given the current situation we're in, but in a vacuum, no, it's bad. We shouldn't have been in a position to rely on Austin Rivers coming in mid-season to save the day.

    People who think this is a good move are being short sighted. Yes it fills a spot but Rivers is not a positive force on any team. Hes a spoiled, entitled kid who thinks hes better than he is. This is a big indication of how poor our depth was coming into the season. Thats on Morey.

    This whole thing makes me sick. Cp3's hammy & contract. Bringing in rivers....i want to gouge out my eyeballs, bleech my skin and yell profanities at strangers

    The U.S. Border Security is hiring volunteers to do this very thing, until the wall is built, spread out at 100yd intervals.

    He wants playing time 26 to 30 minutes a game.

    Morey is targeting dicks and bums.
    These are dicks, Melo, jr Smith, Austin rivers.
    Both Melo and rivers want pt.

    Give him 10 games, then waive him. That's the only justification for doing Melo dirty

    Damn he really is one of those hot dudes

    PRO:
    He’s a warm body
    He’s better than Brandon Knight
    He’s ok at creating looks for himself and others

    CON:
    He’s Austin Rivers
    He’s got a big ego
    He can’t guard a rolling chair
