    Someone high up in the Rockets organization hates Marcus Morris.

    I guess everyone including myself automatically assumes PF when it comes to the rockets. I will start referring to our PG's as PF's at this point.

    I actually like Forbes, didn't get to see much Raptors games, but I know he was really solid for the Nuggets back when he was in Denver. Great defender, athletic, can knock down the 3-ball fairly well. Curious to see what we're going to do with all these dang Forwards, though.

    Someone else is saying it's James Johnson. Sorry, no link, my twitter feed is moving WAY too fast. It was one of the Yahoo guys, not Woj.

    You know when a player sucks if his only mix on YouTube is him playing in a Pro-Am league.

    LOL.

    In all honesty I haven't seen him play, ever. Hope he pans out to be a good backup for Parsons.

    Here's a lengthy video of his playstyle against Rondo. Wow... he plays PG?

    Was that him and Lamb shaking hands at the end? Oh boy, I know Lamb isn't looking forward to Rocket practices, now. :grin:
