    Rockets waive Pops Mensah-Bonsu. Move made to allow for more roster flexibility. less than 20 seconds ago from web

    Rockets will cut Pops Mensah-Bonsu. Save luxury tax money, if the Rockets don't get under, and adds roster spot. Still, seems odd.

    Roster flexibility? Sounds like a trade coming of a signing...

    With as little size as the Rockets have, this move makes absolutely no sense. There has to be another move on the way.

    Has to be a trade, makes no sense, the Lux tax issue could be addressed later in the year......

    Dorsey goes to Dleague, and Pops got cut. Do we have enough Bigs now? I think the rockets will sign a big soon.

    Oh man, this is exciting. Hope its true, it has to be something big to have let someone like Pops go.

    He wasn't a starter but he could have made it to being a spark off the bench with time.
