    I never really liked John Lucas III, but weren't there supposedly teams interested in him? Is his dad still with the organization?

    What?

    You mean he didn't go on to star for another NBA team? I was positive that JL III's problem was that JVG refused to "develop" him.

    Anyone remember when the Rockets drafted Brooks and a bunch of people came on to flame the pickup and say that he was going to be another JL3, lol. I wonder what those folks are saying now :D

    To be fair, I doubt Aaron would've flourished under JVG last year and it would be interesting to see Lucas under Adelman.
