Nice blog article about how great our rookies have been in summer league.
It also mentions driving up their value for Orlando if we do get Dwight.

I nearly lost interest in this team last season. But I'm starting to get pumped about watching these young guys hit the court. The whole Lin thing is starting to grow on me as well.

I don't want to be too optimistic or naive, but I'm crossing my fingers and hoping that Morey may have 'accidentally' rebuilt through the draft. Sure would be nice.

Just gotta find a way solve that pesky center problem, w/o DH...

We can't be absolutly certain Lamb would be the centerpiece. Martin would be heading to Orlando to make the salaries match and with us taking back multiple bad contracts they will have a lot of postitions to fill.

Any combination of the following could happen so we can't know for sure.

Parsons and/or Morris to replace Hedo. Martin and/or Lamb to replace J. Richardson. 2-Pat and/or T. Jones to replace Big Baby. Royce to replace Q. Richardson. Harrelson and/or Jordan to replace Howard. ???? to replace Duhon. + Picks

Morey does not do anything accidentally. It would be against the laws of nature. He is one manipulative SOB.
