my guess at why they brought him in is the need for a legitimate centre to play in case deke cant play because guys like scola, novak, hayes and battier just dont have the size to play on guys like TD and shaq, so basically as insurance, still would have preferred jackie butler though

Re: Rockets sign Harris with Landry hurt
We had just signed Williams, that's why we didn't waive him. And Jackie Butler is overweight.

Jackie Butler looks like he's from the Planet of the Apes.

WTF???? I hope we sign Gerald Green after Harris is done.

I know, that was the first time Daryl Morey hasn't been forth right. On 610 one morning he said Houston is really interesting in seeing what Gerald can bring to the table and would definitely take a hard look at him during the offseason.
As far as Landry goes, I don't think this is serious. Keeping him out tonight is just a precaution. I hope Harris gets to see some action. Justin Williams will probably play out his 10 days and be gone.

Good he will be back soon. I am happy to rest him from the Hawks game.

I think I am reading into your point that we should be able to win the game without Landry but, I was hoping he could play. I want to see a DUNK FESTIVAL against Atlanta. I want to see Carl break Josh Childress's wrist on the rim when we tries to contest the dunk.
To your point again, I really just want the W!

Not at the risk of losing Landry for an even longer spell.
Thats the main point i was trying to make. Especially with the Lakers Celtics Hornets Warriors & Suns to come. Also with Bobcats on a 5 game win streak we need to be up for that game. PS: Richardson was POW with TMAC

I think we are brining him back though, and we better. He is not going to play in the playoffs anyway.

I heard Miami was looking for some SG/SF help with Wade going down and could take a look at Green. Makes sense since they are in the cellar.
Gerald could get alot of PT behind Ricky Davis or they both could be in the game at the same time.
