    You left out this part.

    . "He could be with the Rockets after the G League season is over, but would not be eligible for the playoffs while on a two-way contract.

    "Then I wouldn't use him," D'Antoni said. "If he's not eligible for the playoffs, it makes no sense unless we have injuries."

    So yeah you are using his words out of context and your completely ignoring everything he has said since his return.

    Maybe not making stuff up but using his words out of context to fit your narrative.

    dude... once again... I'm not saying MDA has any dislike of House... I'm sure he likes him - he had him starting...
    My whole point has been, through each reply, is that MDA is going to follow Morey's gameplan... and if thats using House sparingly so as to not inflate his value prior to the off season - then that is what MDA will do...
    I've said it like 3 times now...
    I'm NOT saying (nor have I said) that MDA doesn't like House and won't play him...
    I'm speaking to the politics that may be a factor...

    Hopefully it wont be an issue... but during the impasse the org did release a statement (i believe it was in the Chronicle) about how the team 'doesn't like to convert players and allow them to use the team as a springboard for better offers from other teams in the off season...'
    Having now converted House...utilizing him sparingly or on a limited basis and not as a key contributor would play into that mindset...

    Sounds like you want to run with a conspiracy story, you go ahead with that.

    just being informed... sorry if it doesnt fit the narrative you what to propel...

    Q: Any update on Danuel House?

    A: All indications are that the Rockets would welcome him back, if he accepted their three-year, $4.2 million offer. They have not budged on their decision to not convert his two-way contract for the rest of the season, not wanting to work on developing a player just to help his stock as a free agent that would leave, or to set that precedent with future players on two-way contracts.


    prob jus me 'making stuff up' again... smh...

    Multiverse-class, God Tier. Will appear in next Avengers movie, taking Thanos behind the woodshed for a little attitude adjustment.

    No really, who?
