Morey gets players at the price he wants to pay. Good job Morey for not giving into his demands in the summer. This a great signing at this price.

Great signing by the Rockets. They desperately need some scoring off the bench. :applause:

Re: Von Wafer re-signs with Rockets
 

Hell yeah! Time to celebrate! Lots of people love this guy! :cheers: :banana:

Re: Von Wafer re-signs with Rockets
 

I'm guessing you don't watch the Rockets often.

The Rockets have great options from the bench, this just makes our team that much deeper.

Re: Von Wafer re-signs with Rockets
 

So how much did they sign him for? A veteran minimum contract for the remainder of the season is less than $1.2M.

I somehow doubt he signed for less money than his buyout. But if that's truly the case Morey = :bowdown:

Re: Von Wafer re-signs with Rockets
 

I don't. But from the games I've seen, they do have a difficult time scoring the ball, bench or starting unit. So with Wafer back, that'll add a scoring punch to their team.

Re: Von Wafer re-signs with Rockets
 

The bench is one of the best in the league. Landry himself averages almost 17 ppg off the bench and Budinger and Lowry combine for like 17 as well, with David Andersen averaging about 6. That's a dam good bench. Our starting unit does struggle though.

Re: Von Wafer re-signs with Rockets
 

Definitely has to be the minimum since the Rockets don't have any money left from the MLE and they didn't have a BAE this year (they used it on Barry last season).

Re: Von Wafer re-signs with Rockets
 

this is good news, i just hope he can still play the same way when he was with us.

Re: Von Wafer re-signs with Rockets
 

Hope it doesnt take any minutes away from chase. Id far prefer to have him in the game than Mr Wafer.

Re: Von Wafer re-signs with Rockets
 

Why don't you think they have money left from the MLE?

The only MLE money they used was David Andersen's contract.

Re: Von Wafer re-signs with Rockets
 

Does this mean less minutes for Tracy?

Re: Von Wafer re-signs with Rockets
 

They also used it for Jermaine Taylor's and Chase Budinger contract. Yes you are right though, I had completely forgot we only have Andersen for 2.3M this season adding in Taylor and Budinger 1.5M combined, that's 3.8M of the MLE.

Wow didn't even realize that. Good job looking out.

Re: Von Wafer re-signs with Rockets
 

Tracy's minutes were not intended to be increased yet. Adelman has him on the 7-8 minutes per game plan still. He said Chase's injury did not change that plan.

Re: Von Wafer re-signs with Rockets
 

damn i could had sworn i read he was signing with Memphis this morning. i was surprised that he wasn't already signed to a team already.
