ESPN identified Cleveland and Dallas as interested and Boston, Phoenix, Miami, New Jersey and San Antonio as others on his radar. Houston hasn't played in two years.</div> Source
We need another big man. Not a washed up guard. I liked Houston back in the day and doubt that he will be effective enough for us to produce wins. I would sign him depending on how much money we are willing to give him.
I'd sign him, we don't have great shooters who can come in and drain a couple like we had in past years ( Lammond Murray say what you want but he would hit his 3's, and Eddie House). I say give him a shot, shooting has nothing to do with age, put him in for 2-3 min at the end of a quarter and let him fire away, and play a zone defense.
Thorn: Nets Not Interested in Houston <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Allan Houston wants to stay close to home and play for a contender. That would seem to make the Nets an ideal landing spot for the 36-year-old shooter hoping for a comeback. Not so, says Rod Thorn. While saying Houston is both a "great guy" and a "very, very good player", Thorn added the Nets are set at swingman. Houston is believed to want to ease into his comeback, not signing with a team til near mid-season. He will hold a work out next Tuesday for several interested teams. </div> Source
