    I think it's been evident this guy is a future starting PF. However, he may need to be shipped for the team to become better over the long run.

    LOL, the video begins with Jordan Hill sitting down on the bench!

    I almost fell out of my chair when I saw the beginning

    The one player that has me excited about the Rockets future. It's not just about tonights play, Patterson just seems to have the necessary tools to be successful in this league.

    I think the only reason we played Jordan Hill over him was to showcase Hill for a trade. Unfortunately, that backfired a little...most of the nights, Hill doesn't exactly increase his trade value by playing. Patterson, on the other hand, is clearly a keeper.

    I think the Rockets expected Mike Harris's game to be similar to Pat Pat's game, considering that he can also shoot the ball decently.

    They're built somewhat similarly too.

    Glad we have at least one young player that seems on the correct development path.

    Certified beast.

    Patsquatch puts Derrick Favors to shame. He has an incredible motor, great athleticism, and most importantly, a consistent mid-range game. It's very rare that you come across a rookie with this much polish. The move at 1:10 was absolutely beautiful.

    I hope he's in Houston for the long haul.

    The same.
    He developed PF skills at Rice then turned into an SF in the D-League, but I think I remember the Rockets playing him at PF during some garbage times.

    He can't rebound as well, nor play with as much hustle.

    Now it's time to think about who's better Landry or Patterson... Patterson looked great all around tonight. He looked like he just knew he couldn't be stopped!

    That up-and-under move at 3:16...I think he learned that from Scola :grin:.

    Also wanted to say...by drafting Patterson, we did not miss the boat on anyone else.

    At the 1:11 mark, nice little move, reminded me of Dream.

    Please stop using the word "swagger". It should be buried like the N word

    Once you see a Motorola phone described as having swagger and then gatorade claiming to re-swagger you by drinking their product, the word is dead.

    That is all.
