    He needs time on the court to get more acquianted with speed of the game. Perhaps he doesn't have "it", and never develops as a creator. He was an accomplished facilitator in both college and the D-League, but his talent may top out at that level.

    We won't know either way unless he get some rub with players like Harden, Howard, and some of the vets.

    Bye Ish. Enjoy China.

    Great way to claim that spot by Canaan. Last two shots of preseason to guarantee the win and Ish packs his bags.

    I wasn't being serious, but super happy for Cannon. He's made progress and what makes it special is that he's one of Morey's pick. The Rockets developed him so if he turns out great, we all can be proud just like how Chandler Parsons career is turning out to be.

    I don't want either .... Really hope there is a surprise cut from another team to fill the void. Don't think either are contributors on a championship roster.

    canaan is an elite finisher for his size at the bucket, has elite handles and burst to blow by, or set up the drive fake and step back for the money jumper which is also elite level


    ELIIITE ROLE PLAYYERR

    Smith is too flawed. Canaan might still develop into something.

    Looks like it's going to be Canaan who gets first crack at it. I rather expect McHale to try a bunch of different people at the position through the season. I'm missing Lin. He's better than all of these guys, and we got nothing from giving him up.
