But don't all parties involved have to pass their physicals or have the team receiving them waive the physicals for the deal to go through and allow the new players to play for their teams? For instance, Larry Hughes had his physical waived because it's known he has a broken hand and also he is nothing more than an expiring contract to the Kings. I doubt he will ever wear a Kings Uniform, but they still had to waive his physical for the deal to go through. So all the other pieces have to clear their physicals as well. At least that is how I understand it. Kevin was good while he was here and worked as hard as he could. He could have worked out a little more and got stronger which would have kept him off the injured list more, but he was a good player and he will be missed. Not sure how much help he can give the Rockets, but at least they have bigs that can help erase his defensive deficiencies. Someone needs to guard Kevin's man on defense, because Kevin has a lot of trouble playing defense.
