    That makes sense. Now I wonder between Covington and Williams. Williams is an NBA player where Covington could become a decent one.

    That's good news for Greg Smith, it means he makes the team.

    Have to keep Covington. I dont think that
    It Would be a good look for a veteran to spend his time on the reserves list

    I wonder if we are going to stand pat in terms of the center situation or if Morey is looking to sign a replacement.

    Maybe we can go after Marcus Camby's twin brother Markieff?

    If the last 3 rosters spots are important to the rockets chances of winning this season they wouldn't be in a good place.

    Well it was nice while it lasted. Wonder if there will be a market for him when he is fully recovered.

    ohlbrecht was waived by philly.

    if the rockets make a major move/s i'd look at cody zeller or rudy gobert for guys who can play spot minutes now while looking long term.

    There's plenty of decent big men on the waiver wire. Maybe Morey can pick up a cheap bruiser like Lou Amundsen.
