Von Wafer fails Rockets' physical?

By Mark J. Miller

“VonThings aren't going quite the way Von Wafer(notes) planned this season. The veteran of five different NBA teams signed on with Olympiakos in Greece this off-season. You know Olympiakos. It's the team that's always trying to pick off one NBA player or another to come play there. Linas Kleiza(notes) is on the roster now.

Well, Wafer didn't apparently like the European style of play so the team supposedly bought him out so he could go play elsewhere. So Wafer came back to his last team, the Houston Rockets, a team that supposedly welcomed him with open arms --- until last night.

Wafer reportedly failed his physical last night, according to FOX Houston so any discussed deal with him is now off. The Rockets apparently still have some interest in Wafer if he can get his act together.

Instead of signing Wafer, the Rockets brought on forward Michael Harris from its NBA Development League team.

Happy holidays, Von.

I remember Mike Harris though when he played for Houston before, thought he was really nice energy guy, hit some big shots too.

How the hell does he fail a physical? He was on a pro team a couple weeks ago.

Rockets didn't sign Wafer because he failed his physical.
Translation: Rockets didn't sign Wafer because they found out he's still a douchebag who thinks he is Kobe.

good, this guy should've just stayed over here

What does failing a physical mean for an NBA player? Does it mean he just ballooned and looks like Charles Barkley does now? Or does it mean there's something wrong with his body, like structurally?

"Doc, you saying my physical results are a fail?"

"Yup.....and not just any fail....an EPIC fail."

"Get out of the chattrooms, Doc........."

"OMG, LOL, WTF....."

Now, Dun better waive Bricky and/or Rush and sign Von.

SCdac · 12-23-2009, 04:29 PM

sure would like to hear exactly how he failed his physical....... I wonder how much his conditioning played a part in his departure from Olympiacos, if at all.

Raj Da Dodge · 12-23-2009, 04:57 PM
