    I don't think he'll clear waiver.

    I'd love him at the vet minimum. I think he could play power forward and he can make threes.

    I disagree on both counts, actually. He's slower by the month, and when he misses he shoots some of the ugliest bricks you will witness in a professional game.

    Random thought of the night: What if GSW picked him up instead of Iggy?

    He needs to change himself into a stretch PF, he has the size, strength and hands to do it.

    He shot 39% from three the year he was with us.

    Tempting.

    So who is going to guard Lebron when we face them in the finals? I'm not saying Houston will definitely be in the NBA finals but I don't think parsons/garcia/casspi can do a decent defensive job on strong small forwards like Lebron

    Metta would be a nice body to throw at Lebron though

    and MWP is too slow for Lebron. And the team should let Lebron get his but shut down the rest of the team. Keep Lebron from scoring 30+ and work hard to defend the rest.

    I agree that MWP is too slow for Lebron, but that problem can be solved by just having Dwight/Asik in there. MWP can also guard Lebron when he decides to post up, which is the biggest issue to me. Imagine Parsons/Garcia against Lebron in the post? Er...No thanks. That is my rationale behind wanting MWP to come back to Houston
