http://www.nbadraft.net/players/lucas-nogueira This kid could be what we need, maybe we can down for him plus a wing player or try to nab him in the 2nd round. My only concern is the attitude. I'm sure his offensive game will develop with time, hopefully he'll mature and bulk up as well. He's only 18.
I'd be pretty happy if the Rockets draft any of these guys: Jonas Valanciunas Enes Kanter Kyrie Irving Terrence Jones
Jimmer Fredette... We need to upgrade the PG. Jimmer is for real... Later on we can experiment with Jimmer and Terrence, which would be completely nasty..
I like that, but I'd prefer Jimmer playing an SG role. He can shoot, but I don't think Jimmer has the speed for PG. I think Terrence needs a chance at PG.
Kyrie Irving HANDS DOWN my prefered pick...after him i would love to get my hand on some hungry competitive ball players w/ more so a better NBA game then College game such as Alec Burks or Harrison Barnes. Perry i would take but he is no Kevin Durant, talented as hell but just dont seem to play hard enough looks too cool. But can wake up at any moment and be the beast we all know he SHOULD be...so hard to pass if can land him.
I like that Backcourt, with Terrence playing the facilitator on offense and guarding the 2 guard on defense. Jimmer would most likely have to be the Rockets #1 pick if they are drafting in the 10 - 15 range since that is where he most likely will end up. If Jan Vessely or Donatas are available in that range then those are two guys I would much rather gamble on for the future(especially with the lockout next season imminent), but Jimmer is a solid pick because you know what he can do right off the bat.
NOT Jimmer. NO! Eff him. He's not going to do **** in this league. Hes a poor man's Stephen Curry. NO MORE UNDERSIZED PLAYERS! Seriously, how could ANYONE think that Fredette would be a good acquisition for us? Zero defense and no toughness. Last time I checked, we already have Kevin Martin. Some people....
Exactly. Jimmer Friddette will be a scrub. He's a PG without athleticism, good height, or a great passing ability. His game is not going to translate like everyone is thinking. Yes, he's a big-time scorer; but so was Adam Morrison. At best, he'll be a JJ Reddick - no thanks. Out of this draft, from DX, I really like: Kyrie Irving Perry Jones Jared Sullinger Enes Kanter Terrence Jones Derrick Williams Kemba Walker
If Houston wants another super-star player to team with KM, they will have to move up to the top five, no?
I wish we had a chance at Perry Jones or Kanter. If we can't trade up in the draft then I'd be happy with Tristan Thompson. For some reason he looks like he could continue to grow and he looks like he could easily add weight to his frame.
I only want Jimmer so that he can light Utah up in the playoffs. Thier prized mormon son coming back to haunt them. Perfect.

Yeah he had all this talent coming out of high school, it's hard to believe he just all of a sudden lost it. More likely Roy is coaching him down at UNC and he'll bounce back once he hits the NBA. Great buy-low proposition.
