i watch this guy live since he was 16. and i can tell you this, he is much better than Enes Kanter or Omer Asık or even Mehmet Okur. All he needs is some nba shape and a sweeter midrange jumper thats all. Plays with a lot of heart and He's a great rebounder, very good pick and roll player with extremely quick feet. I am confident that he will be in the rotation next year. youtube videos cant make anybody realize but because of him Galatasaray (a team that never been to euroleage before) played top 16 and missed top 8 only by 1 game. on the way they beat cska moscow and olmpyacos. (yes! the finalists of euroleague.) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DpV1CCMFJhk http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=endscreen&v=yoqARc-S3G0&NR=1 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vf1iMkwmPBo&feature=related
He will be trade bate. Have the Rockets ever left someone overseas for a few years and actually had him play for the Rockets? Never
just for the record...we cannot trade him; we can only trade is draft rights. So, don't expect too much from it, unless (and until) he signs an NBA contract with us.
His voice sounds great! Think he has a bit of a stutter. Seriously, any highlights i could find on him looked like he was ballin' over some high schoolers, not much competition for him.

Why do the Rockets keep going after 6'9 PFs? I mean don't we have enough? The Rockets already had Scola, Patterson, Morris, and then they went ahead and drafted 2 more and then trade for one... God Morey and his PFs. Why cant he just trade for a PG or a center or something.

Watched his videos. Why is Morey so fascinated by undersized 4's and 5's? This guy would have problems starting in the D League, undersized, slow, no lateral movement. Maybe a decent rebounder. WTF?
Donatas Motiejunas? The kid that's coming over to play next season? (not a few years but this kid we traded for will only play 1 year as well)
Where in the world is Malick Badiane? CD scooped him up back in '03 just a couple of years after Deke won his 4th DPOTY, but before adding an African enforcer to your frontline was the cool thing to do... long before the days of Ibaka, Biyombo, and The Beat (R.I.P.).
