Hopefully we trade up, but if we stay at 14 and 16 the draft Rivers and Leonard

This draft could potentially work out in our favor! Hopefully Morey sticks to his guns and doesn't make a pick dependent on need, but on talent. More often than not, it seems that is the way teams get into trouble! http://www.nba.com/video/channels/dr...hq_gotaway.nba

I want to see Houston pick up one more draft pick, preferably a 1st rounder, by moving a vet or an "asset". I'd also like to see us move up into the top of the draft, but I understand how hard that is to do. Nonetheless this is the year to be bold!

Get er done Morey!

With the Okafor trade, the Rockets are now in a tight spot at #14 because none of the top 3 centers in the draft (Drummond,Leonard,Zeller) may still be around. New Orleans, Portland and Milwaukee pick before us and all need centers.

Exactly!

Unless the Rockets find a way to trade up to #8 or better, there is no way we can draft any of the centers you mentioned. Morey would never take a risk on Drummond, but he might go for Leonard. Zeller is more of a Morey player, but IMO Zeller is destined to be a quality reserve center or PF.
