Say we don't get Hayward.  How about signing Nene?

He shot almost 71% from the floor in the playoffs and 62% in the regular season.  He had the 12th highest PER for centers and the 4th highest defensive RPM!!

We might also then have money to retain Oly!

Thoughts?

He's staying in Houston. Already re-signed.

ACTUALLY NEVER MIND. HE'S BACK IN FREE AGENCY HAHA.

I'm definitely interested. Looks like he wasn't willing to re-sign at 3/11M (or 4/15M)

  • Be the posts you wish to see in the world.
There's already been a report (at 11:30 last night lol) that he's resigning with Rockets at 4/$15.

edit: yup looked it up, the offer changed to 3/$11 so he's back available. I might sign him to an Amir style short years/ high $ deal but probably not long term.

Check again. He's not re-signing with them yet.

Back on the open market lol.

Weird substitution going from Hayward to Nene.

But yeah he's back with Houston.

From twitter:

Updating a previous report, Hilario (groin) has not agreed to terms with the Rockets, and remains a free agent, Marc J. Spears of ESPN reports. (20 minutes ago)

Can't space the floor, can't shoot 3s.  His rebounding isn't that great, averaged about 4 rebounds per game over the past two years.  Doesn't really make sense for us even if we miss out on Hayward.
