Rockets interested in Tom Abercrombie?

No, but Cuban will probably sign him now that Morey has shown interest.

 

He's 23, 6'6....played for washington state, undrafted in 08, but i've never seen him play.

 

Stay away, even Julious Hodge managed to average something ridiculous like 30 points playing in the NBL.

 

He has played international ball against many up and coming Euro leaguers like Rubio, and apparently he has good leaping ability. Watch him dunk his own FT:

or catch an alley-oop pass:

look at his ferocious face:

Let's see, white guy who can dunk the ball...FOUND Cbud's replacement. :grin:

 

Seriously, Australian Basketball standards are so crap that I pretend the NBL doesn't exist.

 

We went down this road with David Andersen... Please god, do not sign this guy.

 

What position does he play?

 

Maybe more like an RGV prospect.

 

RGV would probably beat every single NBL team.

 

Jesus man... just what we need. Another 13th man.

 

Jared Jeffries replacement? Perhaps they have reached a buyout.

 

Let's not bullcrap each other!
On paper Abercrombie is one of the riskiest sons of b****es alive.
But people, we can not sum up a man's game with a bunch of numbers on a computer screen.
We all need to look into our hearts and go, do I think this dude is going to be of no help to the Rockets?


And the answer is, No, friends.

 

Center. Looks like you're being replaced.

 

Buzz Kill

 

Brad Newley's replacement



Guess that project didnt work out.

This'll be something like a Romel Beck look at most.

 

Meh, bad movie reference. :grin:

 

This is equal to the Rox being interested in someone playing in the CBA, sure Abercrombie is pretty good in his age range, but that is because we don't have any good players hahaha

 

athletic but severely undersized, i see him going to europe
