Regarding tonight's picks...considering we gave up practically nothing and received two potential contributors...I'd have to give the Rockets draft this year a solid B+. We're still in position to make other major moves. Nicely done Rocket's front office!
via Twitter: clutchfans: Rockets added Chase Budinger to make 3 2nd rounders. Lull likely stays overseas but still hard to see two making the squad.
Man, when I thought it would be a quite night for Rockets. BAM, Three 2nd round draft. If we can got One "Carl Landry" out of these Three. Wonder what would happen when I wake up tomorrow.
he's more of a poor man's brent barry. wally has had a great career and if chase can amount to anything like wally that will be a huge success for him. wally is also strong as a horse while chase shies away from contact.
OK. 10x. Point is that comparison had everything to do with being white and hitting 3's and nothing to do with actual knowledge of the player.
James White is likely gone if they are keeping Buddinger & Taylor. Then it probably depends on how much Von thinks he is worth. or whatever trades we make since I suspect any trades will send out more players than we get in.
I was hoping the Rockets would draft and stash Nando De Colo in Europe. Instead the Spurs drafted De Colo with the Rockets pick from the Scola trade.
Perhaps the Suns may want Budinger as a PR move in a way, so Morey grabs him perhaps to use in a trade to get Nash or Amare.
