Jayne Kamin-Oncea/US PresswireThe Orlando Magic have signed former Celtics guard E'Twaun Moore.For Moore, it's a nice landing spot after being waived by Houston immediately after the Lee deal. Moore played the best ball of his rookie season in Orlando and had a good summer league there, too. Even better for him, he'll get a real chance to make an impression on a young team headed into rebuilding mode.
For Williams, the move is no surprise. The Rockets had until late this month to waive him before his salary for the 2012-13 season became guaranteed. In a league thin on big men, he'll get a look from others in need of size to fill out their roster.

* Our friends at Red's Army have a bunch on Rondo's travels and news that Kevin Garnett is returning to China next week. [Red's Army]
* Mario Chalmers doesn't think Rondo is the best point guard in the league, but isn't afraid to rank him among the elite. [Bleacher Report]
