    Slow, can't rim protect, can't shoot. Only way I see it is if we have a maxed out cap and need a minimum guy

    nothing more than vet min just because we could use size. even then there's no guarantee that he gets any minutes.

    Over the past 2 seasons, he played in 43 games.

    He has only played in 60+ games in 2 of his 6 seasons.

    His highest game count in a single season was his rookie season at 65 games.

    He is 31.

    He has attempted zero 3s in his career.

    Numbers.

    could be a low risk min vet signing though. especially if one of Capela or Nene go down, seemed like every game that one of them didn't play we got killed inside. Having to play Anderson at the 5 is gut wrenching to think about

    Literally. He's likely going to retire.

    Yeah... it was very hard to tell it was sarcasm in your original post.
    You needed one more sentence.

    Like you should have ended with - "Could be the third guy in our big 3"... or "might convince CP3 to sign"

    Then it would have been hilarious!

    We should hold out for the Emeka Okafor comeback first.

    All you Pekovic haters must not have seen this guy play in his prime. Say what you want about him but if anyone can elevate this dude's game, its Harden

    So, you're saying where Rubio has failed, Harden will succeed.

    Thanks
    Lane was too clogged in mini, need a spread offense like the rockets to utilize his skills best

    This guy has been injured for so long. Like I don't remember the last time this guy played. If you thought Eric Gordon was injury prone this guy takes the cake.
