Novak waived by Mavs.

The Rockets, and then coach Van Gundy were most down on him on his lack of rebounding, and MAINLY, his poor defensive skills. As a defender you are to position side to side and keep the man in front of you. I saw way to many times his feet crossover with his man scooting past, and his court awareness, position, switching and defensive help skills just werent NBA quality. Robert Horry, and Matt Bullard were Rocket tall 3 point spot ups also(with long careers), but Steve just never showed, here in Houston, much talent/development of skills beyond his great stroke.Here is the greatest moment for Novak as a pro, which preserved the Rockets second longest win streak in NBA history(22 games):

This is Novak's fifth year in the league. Even if he doesn't get another chance, that's a pretty legit resume.
