Doc Rivers signs another Rockets castoff in Chuck Hayes

Doc Rivers and the Clippers have signed Chuck Hayes, just days after the big man decided he wouldn't get the playing time (or maybe the roster spot) he wanted with the Rockets. Make this two veteran big men that weren't good enough to get the money or minutes they want with Houston that Doc Rivers has decided to bring in.

Yahoo!'s Marc Spears reported the news (he's leading the Chuck Hayes beat contest), with a source telling him the Chuckwagon is in L.A. for a one-year deal, but Doc feels it is his personal mission to extend the careers of players who should have been coaching two years ago (or, in the case of Hedo Turkoglu, owning a nightclub).
