    Best way to protect him from himself. I hope he can still be around the team, rehab, and train to some degree at our facilities. There's no way this happened without being cleared by the big 3..AD, Bron, and Rondo.

    Who's Bron going to sit next to on the bench now?

    It sucks cause it seems like he was a good locker room and bench presence, but if it doesn't hurt our chances at bringing him back in the summer, it makes the most sense to drop someone who can't play over a healthy body.

    Hopefully he'll still be able to work with Handy this season. He seemed to be really enjoying that.

    i have a feeling hes going to stay close to the team throughout the rest of the season even if its in more of a behind the scenes role.

    hopefully the way we have treated cousins will help us to sign him in the off season

    Wonder how likely it is that some team claims him just for his rights next year.

    Hmm dunno, dudes a very talented beast. I don't want our west coast competition picking him up. Even after those nasty injuries I have a feeling he's going to be a real force for whoever he plays for.

    I'm hoping he has a very successful rehab and we get him back for next season.

    Can we waive him now and still sign him again for next season?

    I believe so? I don't see why not. I'm really hoping that's the case too.

    Oh crap. Am nervous too now. Why would Houston not do that for themselves and to screw us?

    He’s too tall for Houston. ‘Antoni scoffs at the very thought.

    He isn't going to Houston.

    Calm down, Cinderella.

    Can’t help it. Caught the irrational fear of Houston virus from @abeer3 over the internets.

    I'm 5'7". Houston has already guaranteed me their final roster spot.
