    It is, but my feeling is that he will get better by practicing with the Rockets.
    If he is not up to it, then send him to the G-League by all means.

    We will see I’m def down to see what happens. His defense is actually what he is known for but this preseason he has been killing it on offense.

    29 other teams. Only 5 pre-season games. And we played the Sharks one game. Why in the hell are we playing Memphis twice?

    I totally understand why we play the Shark's (Our Chinese presence and Yao), however, the only thing that can happen in this game is that CP3, James, or Capela is injured. Please don't play any starters in this game.

    I wanted our last preseason against the Pelicans, but they are our 1st regular season opponent. I'm surprised that we are playing against the Grizzlies too.

    Tends to get slower with age.

    Also everyone prolly knows what he brings to the table, won't get much PT in regular season, he is ready when he is ready.

    It’s too early for him to use his Louisville Slugger.
