    I can feel the love, I doubt he has been cut, especially at 11pm on Sunday night.

    Sounds like hating on him from that Tweeter....

    And from some of you in here...I am a Rockets fan for life, if that jinxes them, well too bad for you.

    BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAH !

    Basically just means in order for us to sign Marc Gasol to a contract, we'd need to amnesty Thabeet. As far as I know, we haven't offered him the contract yet/it has been accepted.

    Just heard from Feigen that he has NOT been cut, and that he had a good day at practice today.

    Look up this nonsense...

    A GOOD DAY AT PRACTICE PEOPLE !

    ;)

    It doesn't matter one way or the other. You can tell by his interviews that McHale has no interest in wasting his time with Thabeet.

    If you truly love them, you should let them go.

    From the videos clutch posted looks like he was actually enthusiastic in coaching him up, but I could be wrong.

    Direct message from Feigen on Twitter after I asked if he had been cut:


    ================================================
    Jonathan_Feigen Not yet. Had a good day at practice today, too.
    4 minutes ago

    ================================================

    BTW - Feigen is a really nice guy to talk to, good guy and very responsive.

    One of the saddest days in Rockets history.

    Good luck Hasheem Thabeet. Could have been the Tim Tebow of Centers.

    Well of course he might be, he has a big contract, but Flynn also might be, as could Twill....or Scola or Martin.....

    I think the Rox will hold on to their amnesty for a couple of years in case they face a Tmac or Yao injury situation.

    Stromile Swift and Mike Olowakandi also probably had "good practices" as well.

    Chances of working out a sign-and-trade for M.Gasol: 1%?

    Chances of Nene picking a Pau-less Houston: 30%?

    Barring either of these events actually happening, there is no reason to amnesty waiving Thabeet . . . yet.
