    He is a shot blocking machine! If he played defense and just got out of the way on offense he would be more effective than Dorsey. Sure he needs more time to develop his offensive game but who cares the way he plays defense.

    The RVG game thread videos show a guy with a real presence on the court. Can't wait to see what he does with more minutes and experience. Looks promising.

    He could not possibly be worse on offence than Dorsey. If he can finish a wide open look near the hoop, then he has Dorsey covered.

    Need to watch the kid more(I watched the OKC Blue game). I think he has a lot of RAW talent but I don't like his body language at this point. It seems to me that he thinks he is better than what he really is in the post. Good talent though some thing to work with in the future..

    Not sure what is up with Black's hand but if he is unable to play, they might just call up Clint.

    No Dwight , no Jones , no Black ..... might not have much choice as the only real big man they have left is DMo. They cant start DMo & Dorsey can they ?! Cant go with KPap , Ariza , Harden & Garcia at the 4 spot for 48 minutes can they ?!?!

    Dorsey is hot garbage , can we send him to .... Mars ??

    Probably send up Clark before they send up Caps. Capela is not even fully recovered from his groin injury.

    Management will have to cut a player from the roster to sign Clark. That seems quite unlikely.

    Garcia has a lot of limitations, but I think Dorsey is even more limited than him.

    I'm not sure D League will help Capela too much. Capela most likely needs work defending good big men which he isn't going to find in the D League.

    Well, Capela isn't going to find that in practice with the Rockets either with Howard and Jones out. :grin:
