    Oh my god. I know he was close to 3/4 of his height but he looks half Yao's height there. Must be a perspective thing

    I was just thinking that we've had one of the tallest players in NBA and now one of the smallest.

    Anyway as far as this signing I almost hate to say this but I am raising it for discussion. If Rocket's management really felt we needed another guard to back up or replace Lowry why didn't we keep Fisher?

    I think Boykins was standing further back than Yao was in that picture. Here is a more accurate one.

    I think we wouldn't have minded keeping him but Fish was being a little b*** about it. Doesn't really matter though, we basically got a first round draft pick for $600K, haha.

    This is 3x as good as keeping Fisher, and he doesn't have any contract issues. Win-Win.

    Good signing. He's definitely serviceable and cuts the workload for Dragic.

    He is a great scorer off the bench.
