    I think both Nick Johnson and Kpap are solid rotation players in this league. If Kpap develops a jumper he could be a legitimate starter. I liked him a lot pre injury. I'd say Denver got a good return for a troubled played after they just drafted his replacement. Obviously not the haul they could have gotten a week ago, but not bad at all.

    That said, awesome news for the Rockets. Assuming Lawson gets his stuff straight, he's a legit weapon at point. Very exciting.

    With Lawson's distribution skills, do we need to add a cold-blooded 3 point shooter? Can you imagine a Korver or Craig Hodges type player getting assists from Lawson and kickouts from Harden? GIGGIDY

    Wait. What happened to all the posters that didn't want Lawson here? Or the ones that were so convinced that the Rockets were not interested in his contract?

    Bev's such a class act. Love the backcourt versatility:

    1). Bev/Lawson
    2). Harden/Thornton
    2.5). Brew/KJ


    SICK!
