    Press Release -

    he is not a PF

    he is a swingman (SG/SF)

    that they had already talked about signing before this happened.

    Rockets having been splitting the PF & C between 3 players. Hayes and Deke is more than enough help.

    just have another idea.

    RAdelman always wants to play his basketball but Yao can't adjust it.

    Maybe RA would use this chance to make Scola the center to transform the ball instead of Yao

    If he wants a ring ..

    tell him to sign with the Lakers, Spurs or Pistons. Oh wait i dont think any of those teams can fit him on the roster or need him.

    If he wants to just play and make a difference, hopefully even get paid next yr. HE would be smart to sign with the Rockets or Mavs.
