    Wow house is stupid. No team wants him and sounds like it was a "play me or release me" type deal

    Hey Mr house, you won't find another team or coach that likes you more than Silas
    .. you should have stayed in your boot, and shut up and listened, that way you'd have a job still in the NBA

    Or did u want to be free from the NBA so you could spend 24/7 on Instagram high on lsd making videos?

    (Sorry guys, woke up on the wrong side of the bed and I have no respect for people,let alone players, that appear high on public videos, I'm in recovery so i see bad signs that house will be holding a cardboard sign on crosstimbers in a few years)

    Great he's finally gone, but Matthews on a 4-year deal, not sure about that one.

    He will find a team. With players dropping like flies due to COVID he will definitely find a team.

    He was smart, because despite Silas's love for House, after the play of Christopher, Matthews, Brooks and with KPJ/Green coming back soon, he really was not going to be part of this rotation much.

    He just needs to find a team where he is asked to do a whole lot less.

    Nets, Heat or Philly will sign him.

    Salary filler? What kind of trade are you expecting the Rockets to make? We are trying to move Wall. Other teams will have to add filler.

    I wish him well. He was at his best when he was a hustle guy who crashed the boards and helped our undersized frontcourt get rebounds. Hopefully he can find a team where he's the 5th option on the court and he can just use his physical gifts to contribute - along with hitting the occasional 3.

    Also, I look forward to his rap song about being waived. Will be a top 5 all time song.

    Seems it worked out for everyone. House wanted a new location, lowball Matthews during poor shooting slump to team friendly deal, try out Queen who can play rest of season on 2-way contract

    particularly with all the needed 10-day signings.

    House has all the attributes to be a 3 & D player who would cut and slash
    to the basket and finish; but he never prepared or wasn't smart enough
    to figure out a read and react offense.

    Right now he is probably only good for 5-men out scheme.

    Not good for a Silas system......shouldn't think about going to Warriors,
    and find a team with #4 jersey available because apparently he can
    only play with a #4 jersey in the 4th month in the 4th quarter at 4 p.m. (or a.m.)
    in years that end in 4.*

    *I know he wears #4 to honor grandmother and area he lived in.
    Numbers can inspire and lead us to a path of destruction too.
    Self destruction.

    Golly, peeps are so innocent sometimes.

    He committed career murder by doing that in the bubble. Threw Tyson Chandler completely under the bus and I guess he retired not long ago.

    And prior to the bubble, he was struggling with his 3 pt shot, it wasn't all roses.

    Plus, I guess he was undrafted or very late pick, not many were willing to give him a chance anyhow.

    Nowadays it is not hard to get undrafted gems out of the GLeague.

    Why?

    What is the worst case scenario on a guy making 2 million a year?
