Not yet but if we have any shot at signing nene well have to. I say do it anyway he won't see any playing time this year even with a shortage of bigs on our roster.

Thanks, just wondering about the rumors. Just can't see how a 7"3 guy could be that sorry to be a amnesty victim :(

The NBA on ESPN @NBAonESPN 7 mins
RT @TheAkronHammer: Hasheem Thabeet went from No. 2 overall pick to amnesty waivers in 30 months. That's impressive.

Nope. Deadline to use the amnesty provision on him passed last week. He'll be a Rocket unless he is traded.
