That's because the Houston Rockets are going to trade for Chris Bosh.
And then sign D-Wade to the MLE with Joe Johnson a possible candidate for the vet's min.
Do not need David Anderson anyways. Good player but not a game changer.
Nope. They are already working on trade with Timberwolves to get Nikola Pekovic. This is why Andersen might want to leave.
He can make twice as much in Europe as Rockets pay him. If they do not play him he would have no reason to stay there.
He can't. He is under contract with the Rockets for at least one more season.
Here's a link from US media that proves it.
http://www.myfoxhouston.com/dpp/spor..._sign_andersenAndersen and the Rockets have agreed to a two-year deal worth $4.8 million. The contract also includes a team option for a third year worth $2.7 million.
You are a ing moron.
Maybe the Germans will buy the remainder of Anderson's contract out for him.
I gave you a link supporting my claim.
Where's yours?
I hope he does get let out of his contract etc.....it would free up cap room for a real NBA player.

"No player can ever get out of a NBA contract"........................![]()
He is good enough to play in NBA as a PF the position he played in Europe. He was never good enough in defense and rebounding or strong enough to play C in Europe but Rockets thing he can play there in NBA?![]()
The Greeks broke their contract to the Turks and now they're owned by the Germans. Similarly, getting out of the NBA is never a good thing for your career.
He can earn twice as much or more in Europe. So actually NBA is bad for his career.
I never said never. Andersen would have to be waived or bought out before he could sign any contract with any other team. That is at the sole discretion of the Houston Rockets, who are under no obligation to do so. Andersen simply can't leave unless the Rockets allow it.
Now, if Andersen is a pussy who can't handle the level of play in the NBA like Spanoulis was a pussy who couldn't handle the level of play in the NBA, the Rockets would do well to let him out of his contract just as the Spurs got rid of Spanoulis.
Having nothing was better than having Spanoulis.

David Andersen obviously did not find the playing time he was looking for in the NBA (14.1 minutes) and is reported to be entertaining thoughts of returning to Europe despite still having one year left in his contract with the Houston Rockets.
One of the first teams to be reported to have shown interest in the 29-year old Australian is Efes Pilsen who is also targetting Terrell McIntyre. Of course there is nothing concrete right now as it is also expected that many teams will show interest in those two players.
Andersen averaged 5.8 points and 3.3 rebounds in the last NBA campaign with the Rockets.
He wasn't a crybaby like Spanoulis but his defense was too terrible to remain on court. He was useful at times on offense, but his defense was horrible against even below average NBA talent. It would be nothing short of a miracle if the Rockets could somehow pawn him off on a sucker willing to save us from his contract.
He played PF in Europe where his defense and rebounding was below average for a PF. But Rockets force him to play C in NBA. You should blame your coach for being a moron.
So you openly admit that you didn't watch him play as a Rocket. Had you watched you may have seen that he played at pf as well and was raped just as thoroughly at that position. He was so pathetic that he was beaten out by a rookie that played just a little over 200 minutes in the entire first half of the season. Are you sure you were watching the Rockets? Be honest William, how many Rocket games did you catch this season?
