RE: Dorsey Signs with Rockets
The fact that Joey's a multimillionaire at age 30, doing what he loves, makes me smile. I hope he has responsible managers around him. Love this dude.

Go Joey go! One of my favorite all time Tigers, as I have a soft spot for 'effort/guts' bigs who make their impact through hard work and not necessarily post scoring.

A triumph of hard work by a quality individual to carve a niche out doing what he loves at the highest level.

Much respect!

Woefully undersized to play the 5 in the NBA. Houston just unintentionally gutted their roster and capped themselves out so they're desperate to put a bench together. Hope he sticks, but odds are he'll be waived within a few months.

A million per year for two years does not make you a multimillionaire ... taxes, basically 40%, agent fees (5% I'm guessing), living expenses, etc.

You still have to save well as you implied.

Very happy for him, 3 guys off that squad look to be sticking in the league since CDR seems to have found a home with the Bobcats (now Hornets).

Undersized PF/C's that are unselfish, bang, and hit the boards can't play in this league? Reggie Evans begs to differ 03-wink

Besides, it's a two year deal, why not give him a one year deal if they don't think he can play? It's the minimum, but it's fully guaranteed…

Happy for Joey. Great guy, great Tiger, loved watching him play. Talked to him for a long time after the Kansas debacle. Big man was crushed.

Spanky just needs to be put out of his posting misery. C'mon mods, pull the trigger.

All we can do at this point is hope that he gets waived so your wishes come true.

I love Dorsey. He just pointed out that he is undersized. This is true.

He said he hopes he sticks. So how would him being waived make his wishes come true?

If using the word 'woefully' and proclaiming the odds to mean that he will be waived is an example of 'hope', he should probably give up hoping.

Poster indicated that the only reason Dorsey got signed is because Houston is desperate. 03-lmfao Besides, he didn't need to point out Dorsey's size. Everyone knows it's 2.03
