Forbes should get some good playing time with McHale's system. It would be nice to have two former Minutemen on the same team. Has that happened since Dr. J and Al Skinner played on the 76ers? But it looks like Camby is probably on the move (contrary to my prediction :oops: :lol: )

Gary has been cut from the Houston Rockets after the Harden trade. Not sure if he would of been cut anyways regardless of the trade or not.

I really feel for Gary. It's a tough business. Really hoping he catches on somewhere. Also hope he put away a good portion of the dough he earned over the last couple seasons.

Just thinking about Gary Forbes and wondering what's happened to him since he was waived by Houston. A little research, very little, shows that in late November he was signed by the Guangsha Lions of the Chinese basketball league. Anyone know whether their season has started and how Gary is doing if it has?

That is one tall team. I'm guessing they're not running and gunning.

Thank you SignMan for the Chanukah wishes. I have three wonderful grandchildren so the candles do burn especially brightly.
