Adam Haluska to be released...

According to today's Houston Chronicle:

The Rockets also plan to sign former Washington and Denver guard/forward Bobby Jones to a 10-day contract. Jones was waived by the Nuggets on Jan. 7. Signing him would provide a 6-7 defender for matchups in which the Rockets would be small off the bench after trading Bonzi Wells, along with Mike James, to New Orleans for guard Bobby Jackson.

To make room for Jones, the Rockets will release guard Adam Haluska, who was acquired with Jackson in a deal agreed upon Wednesday night.

Apparently traded to New Orleans according to a ticker at the bottom of MSNBC I saw this morning (hate those damn tickers since they tend to distract me from what I'm trying to watch).

Why toy with someone like that? Trade for them and then cut them? What sense does that make?

It was a huge surprise when New Orleans drafted him last summer anyway. I'm surprised he lasted as long as he did in the NBA. Atleast he will make about 400k for his trouble this season. Who knows, maybe he can play well this summer and find another home.
