    So do I. Black has class, unlike Parsons, who has none. I wouldn't mind seeing Tarik in a Rockets uniform again someday.

    Good guy.

    Decent backup help.

    Hope he finds a good team and does well.

    The thing about Black is he has 4 good games against Memphis and a couple against other teams and the rest he just disappears on Offense

    Just saw the post, too bad since I liked his hard work. Hopefully, the opportunities provided by the injuries net him a good NBA job, he deserves it.

    If that happens, he'll be back in H-Town on Wednesday when the Hornets play here.

    Good! He'll have a good chance to make an impact there. Hope he does very well.

    Great place to land.

    It doesn't effect us, he should get some run, and there are a lot of missed shots to rebound there.

    I am sure he is all smiles.

    he is up against Sacre for playing time.

    This could signify that Sacre is on his way out via trade.

    Just don't follow in the footsteps of former Rocket Jeremy Lin.

    Lakers are still a good place for him. He may be the best defensive/rebounding big they have

    Lakers waive Henry. From what I saw of him he was good

    I'm shocked they are giving up on Henry so early. I'm glad for Black, he can grow and thrive worth that team.

    Really happy for him. Great opportunity for him to play right away and a cool city to live in as a well-paid 22 year old. Best of luck Tarik.
