    No. because it means Brooks is injured.

    How can you be excited about that.

    I swear some people are not all there. A few nuggets short of a happy meal.

    He can't be brought up until we have a roster space!

    He's pretty good. Would be a quality third-string PG in the NBA.

    Nothing to get excited about, but not a bad in-season call-up candidate.

    Couldn't the Rockets get some kind of injury exception?

    Nah. The Rockets don't actually have THAT many injuries. It's more of a "roster balance" issue the team is facing now.

    Still counts towards the 15-man roster. No room.

    One has to wonder if JT will now be cut....to clear room for a backup point.

    I don't know players salaries but besides JT is there anyone else that could be bought out or cut that makes sense?

    If they cut JT to get a back up point, it would leave them a similiar, if not worse problem at SG. Martin's x-rays could turn out bad, at least we know Brooks should be back in a few weeks.

    I doubt it I think Rick will play C Lee at point if he has too.
