I see no way possible our roster stays the same. Here's the current roster: PG Francis/Mooch/Maddox/Brown SG Mobley/Torres(FA I think) SF Nachbar/Rice/Morris(FA?) PF Taylor/Thomas/Griffin C Ming/Cato/Collier That's 14 players not counting Torres. In my opinion Brown is gone. I think Maddox most likely makes the club. Everyone else is under contract with the exception of Torres and I don't know about Morris. Collier and/or one of the forwards is on his way out. I think the most tradeable right now is Thomas. If Morris is infact under contract then he too could be gone. What do yall think?
Don't forget the injured reserved list. I am sure the Rockets can find some injured players to put on the list.
On the Roster: Francis Moochie Cuttino Torres Rice Morris Nachbar Kenny Maurice Eddie Cato Ming Injury List: Collier Maddox Gone: Langhi Willis Tierre Brown
We can have 15 with 3 of those on IR...Obviously either Maddox or Tierre will be gone. Collier hopefully will be relieved. That leaves 12 players not including Torres. So, I wouldn't be surprised if Collier and/or KT are dealt. We aren't keeping Willis or Langhi for sure. 13 with OT, so 2 spots left...this seems wrong, am I forgetting someone?
My guess: -the 3rd string point guard is between Brown and Maddox.....good luck to either of them. I wish Brown would have had more playing time to see whether he is better than Moochie or not. I will say that I am impressed by the 8 assists per game by Maddox. -We're resigning Torres......only back up for Mobley -Thomas is probably going to be used as part of a trade. -Rice and Collier only have another year left.....then they're somebody elses problem.
I thought they changed the name of the IR list to something else so no one would have to lie to keep a 15 man roster this year. Thank goodness we only have Rice for one more year. I'm sure he's a nice guy, but a waste of salary cap. And, he'll be super motivated in the last year of a contract. Where's Walt? Glad he's gone. Nice guy, super streaky, the type of player that all our other players except KT and SF are, super streaky.
