    Alot of Length and athleticism there.

    Dwight \ Capela \ Wood
    DMO or Jones\Smith\Wood\Harrel
    Ariza \ Dekker\ ? [Brewer]
    Harden\ Brewer
    ???THE WOLVERINE???\Terry\PRigs?

    I think these three pick ups mean DMo or Jones will be traded

    The Athleticism of these three . . .intrigues me
    Esp on the second unit

    You should know better Tinman...very likely that the rooks stay in RGV. I think it would be better to talk about the potential of all our young guys in a few years, if they stick around. Johnson, Dekker, Harrell, Capela, etc.

    Wood on a basic Viper contract and he is a PF. Should be on you rotation. No guarantees smith gonna take vet min contract and no guarantees brewer returns

    Why is Wood ahead of Harrell in depth chart? Is he a better player?

    No. Harrell was drafted, Wood has a higher ceiling though.

    2 years ago people were saying Canaan's jersey will be retired by the Rockets also.

    If Smith and/or Brewer does not return . . . . we either gotta get some Free Agent Help or push the ISHT out of these guys

    No Doubt . . . If they work hard they can be called up Mid Season like Capela
    I think Capela's Viper days are over.

    Taller. I think Height is important.
    I need to see some shooting . . distance shooting .. .for Harrel
    I need to see his Highlight reel :D

    This has to be Morey's best draft Haul to date.

    Dekker, Wood and Harrell will all have side chiks from the hidalgo, Tx because that's where they will be for 90% of the year.

    We won't make any more roster changes for a decade.

    This is it.

    I think we trade TJones, Paps and Johnson to make way for the new guys. We're still looking to either re-sign Bev or obtain a FA PG.

    Yeah we have 20 guys right now, definitely have to make some moves.

    Guaranteed contracts

    Howard, Harden, Ariza, Jones, Motie, Capela, Dorsey, Johnson

    Non guaranteed

    Papanikolaou, Prigioni

    Rookies

    Dekker, Harrell, Wood

    Free agents

    Brewer, Beverley, Smith, McDaniels, Terry

    Rumored free agency signings

    Llull, Scola

    20 players, there's got to be some trades and cuts if Wood hopes to make the team.

    Adding Cummings there now and possibly bringing in Stuckey makes it 22.

    Hopefully the roster will be:
    Llull/(someone we traded for using Papa and/or Jones)/Terry
    Harden/Stuckey/Johnson
    Ariza/Dekker
    DMo/Smith/Wood/Scola
    Howard/Capela/Harrell

    Let McD and Bev and Brewer walk. Or keep KJ and send of Papa and Jones for picks. Then send Cummings to play for RGV and cut Prigs/Dorsey.

    20 - Prigioni (cut), Jones and Papanikolaou traded, Dorsey cut, Terry bye bye, Brewer bye bye or traded...

    Problem solved :)

    Ehhh Stucky was rumored to be some the rockets should be "expected" to have interest, really weak rumor. Unlike Scola which a couple of sources say is likely a lock to be a Rocket next season.

    Cummings also looks terrible if you look at his college stats, the chances of him making the team seem very slim to nun. He'l probably be fighting for a spot on the Vipers.

    Woods on the other hand has first round talent and could potentially end up being a really nice gem.
