    Why wait? The board has already annointed Marcus Morris as an All-Star and he hasn't even played a professional minute.

    He has the potential to be one.

    People thought the same thing when Texans fans were super hyped about Watt and Reed. That worked out well for us.

    This offseason has me so excited for this season...not.
    Ish Smith was waived, let's get him back, maybe Dorsey, too.

    just want to know why Morey is signing all these guards and forwards when what we really need is a true center. to be honest we really don't need a center either because i think Patrick Patterson would be the right player to start in the center position while we can have Jordan Hill come off the bench and fill in also. just hope we won't have to give up anyone on our team to get a center if needed.

    Pat and Hill as centers? We'd get slaughtered by bigs.

    How sad is it that signing this guy is 6 pages long? Is this what it has come too?

    Everyone read this post by RV6. The rockets are in the middle of training camp. Its the ****ing preseason. You have to realize most of these guys will be cut. The rockets aren't planning some mind blowing trade everytime they sign someone that you have never heard of.

    Morey signs them because they have non guaranteed contracts. Only when they require money will Morey have a hard time signing them.:grin:

    I think it has something to do with Morey's statistical analyzation. Undersized forwards always tend to go at it a little bit harder than those who already have the height. Something similar to Napoleon Complex or Small Man's syndrome.

    At any rate, the guys Morey selects always tend to be productive despite being undersized.

    You're on to FrankenMorey's master plan pt III - take all the best parts of scrub players and assemble them into one uber-beast...or trade for Dwight Howard.

    He has the Beast, but he will not get Howard
