We need to send him to the Texans as a tight end.

Didn't Leuer have a guaranteed contract this year while Brockman didn't?
Parsons said he was looking forward to playing with him too.
He could have been our Steve Novak for Lin to kick out to.

Damn I wanted to keep Leuer too, wondered why he didnt play in SL.

As long as we keep machado and Dragic , IM happy. Leuer was nothing special. Reminds me of a better joe alexander. And we have parsons whos more all round player, so it would be redundant

Finally Watching the rockets bulls game and that interview with Mchale doesn't make me feel confident that they will bring machado back

When Barry asks about him Mchale first says he didn't like his play at first but he improved, that he could see him getting a spot, then he brings up how many contracts we have, and he ends with the pc comment I think he has a spot in the league

Makes me think he probably won't be back, and that sucks I want him back even if it's 3rd string somehow behind dougie

I mean we could still cut any combo of fortson smith Simpson brockman and of course TRADE MARTIN FOR A PICK

Brockman's contract is guaranteed, which is why he wasn't cut.

Zubby · Post #130 » by **Zubby** » Thu Jul 19, 2012 7:54 pm

wtf McHale dont know **** about pg.... Machado is obvisiously better than fortson.

TRADE, just went down

Courtney Lee, in a sign-and-trade deal
for second-year forward JaJuan Johnson from the Celtics

PANDEMONEUM · Post #132 » by **PANDEMONEUM** » Thu Jul 19, 2012 9:23 pm

Brockman is useless
but, we also played him at the C position
which hes way to small to play
nice guy and all, just end of bench player

Leur is nice
but the Rockets all ready have players like him or better
and his contract wasn 'nonG'

Livingston also has a 'nonG' contract
but he played very well in stretches for the Bucks
hes very versatile and is good for ball movement
can play PG, SG and sometimes SF

texasholdem · Post #133 » by **texasholdem** » Thu Jul 19, 2012 9:39 pm

Machado will get cut and sign with the Knicks. Then Felton, Kidd and Prignioni will all get hurt and Machado will start for them and we'll have MachadoMadness!

I'd rather have Machado than former #4 pick Shaun Livingston.

You guys also got JaJuan, E'Twaun Moore, a 2nd and Sean Williams for CLee. Will Sean and Moore be waived? Both have unguaranteed contracts.

College Boy · Post #136 » by **College Boy** » Fri Jul 20, 2012 5:33 pm

Where can I find an updated Roster with salaries? I just want to see who on our roster is unguaranteed.

Zubby · Post #137 » by **Zubby** » Fri Jul 20, 2012 6:31 pm

John Hollinger ‏@johnhollinger

E Moore guarantee date is tomorrow so Houston will cut him... bottom-feeders should be looking to claim him for $762K. Combo G who can shoot

from rotoworld.....

Although not originally part of the deal, Jon Diebler was a late addition to the Courtney Lee sign-and-trade, with his rights going to the Rockets from the Blazers.

Diebler spent last season with Greek team Panionios and it's yet to be determined if he will report to Rockets training camp or be waived.

Zubby · Post #139 » by **Zubby** » Fri Jul 20, 2012 8:00 pm

Diebler no thanks, cant play D, alright shooter, don't know how he got drafted and Lighty didnt

College Boy · Post #140 » by **College Boy** » Fri Jul 20, 2012 8:11 pm

I have no idea who this Diebler character is, but if he is not a PF I do not want!
