David Andersen His game at this point looks similar to what david andersen did for us a few seasons ago.
LOL the interview with Friedman on the Rockets website is crazy. He just goes off on eagles for like 4 minutes. :grin:
I would have rather gotten a signature player, but I will give the draft a B+ because at least we get some guys who have all-star potential. I think Motiejunas has a great D league season next year and gets moved to our team late in the year. I don't know why, but I think that if a spot is there for him to earn a few minutes, he will.
To all the Okur comparisions..just no. Monte dribbles the ball like a SF. He is also much more athletic with better post moves. If Monte is really 240lbs you can tell he's really been pushing himself in the weight room. Let's hope McHale gives him a fair shot. He wouldn't have a chance if Adleman was still coaching.
It is obvious that Rockets fans have no clue about this guy's background. The more strange thing though is that Daryl Morey seems to not even have a clue about it either. This is the same guy that was voted off of Lithuania's junior national team because the rest of the players refused to play with him anymore, due to what an arrogant jerk he is. It really is odd how with all the attitude problems this guy has had, that seemingly you never seemed to hear a thing about it from the NBA side. Morey talks about him like he is some great guy or something..........

How can anyone miss his arrogance? Kid is a few steps past cocky. But will he be T-Will or K. Bryant in his mentality? I see it as the risk the Rockets are taking. How often do you hear NBA analysts say "oh, this guy issei ping because he his a total jerk?" I doubt they don't know. He lasted until 20, after all, in what was not a top heavy draft. I just want to see how he responds after he competes against Howard and Griffin. If his ego can compute the experience of getting overpowered by guys who are strong and quick, then I will believe. For now, I root for he is a Rocket and offers some hope.
