    No I’m not forgetting two ways. The rockets only have 14 on their roster. There’s a reason why the hard cap became such an issue with the Clemons injury. And why they had to cut green.

    The 14 man roster

    Harden
    Wall
    Bmac
    Gordon
    Clemons
    Thomas 2-way
    Jones 2-way
    Nwaba
    Brown
    Tuck
    House
    Tate
    Kmart
    Wood
    Cousins
    Bruno

    It means other players not named Harden will miss game(s).

    There's plenty of information in the post. The fact that the rockets didn't have enough is a 100% true. The assumption that harden caused the game to be canceled is false

    don't make assumptions when it's clear you're not up to date with who is on this roster

    Brodric Thomas
    Mason Jones

    Both on 2 way contracts so do not count towards 15 man roster.

    It reminds me of when Lawrence Taylor was golfing instead of being in camp. Even a hardass like Parcells basically said so what. And Parcells would cut a vet just to jerk his team into serious mode. But he knew LT would be ready to ball. I think Harden likes to ball. I just can't imagine him tanking to get out of Houston. I say keep him until you get a deal that is a no brainer. If this team kicks ass, it is possible that he reconsiders.

    Question: if we let his contract run down, do we get a trade exception when he leaves? Is that the way it works? If so, let it run out unless a great deal presents itself.

    they're still part of the 14 man roster. which is my point that they didn't have enough

    the rockets aren't carrying 15 bc they can't

    Missing EGo.

    Clemons is also still on roster.

    So 14 on active roster + 2 on 2 way contract.

    On another note, Treveon Graham is a good player.

    They just got here,...give it time LOL. Our Coach, Gm, Westbrook, and Harden all want out in ONE SEASON. With conflicting reports and mud dragging. Give me a brreak.

    Coach was already with one foot out. Westbrook didn't want to deal with Harden. GM has been there 10 years plus, I'm glad he's gone too.

    Personally I would have cleaned up house a long time ago...

    Forgot Gordon and didn’t realize the two-ways were on top of the 14 while telling everyone they were.

    Arrogant, yet wrong ... the YOLO special.

    Clippers down 50 against the Mavs at half time

    Maybe they can be a potential trade partner..Harden loves Cali...
