    Oh come on...Jones' body is NBA ready even before drafted. This is on his scout report already. And on the other hand D-Mo will move to play C this season.

    No doubt in my mind that White is going to be a star and has the highest upside of all Rockets players. And I am saying this even though I am JLin fan.

    I voted lamb but if dmo or tjo (I don't think of Royce as a 4) definitively get the power forward job I would say one of them...but I doubt any will crack starting lineup (ppat is major underrated) lamb can do more as the lightning rod scorer off the bench while the bigs can provide more stability

    I like Lamb and Terrance. I would have gone with Royce but with the issues he's having I think that will effect him this year negatively

    Minutes will be going to the player that can defend the best, not score the most.
    Thats why I'm voting DMo.

    It's going to be interesting to see how many minutes Lamb gets a game considering Delfino and Martin are currently ahead of him. Hoping we somehow find a way to trade Martin although a part of me for some reason is hoping we keep him.

    I would pick if not for this -- he's got Martin in front of him and with Lin on one side and Parsons/Delfino on the other side, he can't get much court time by playing out of position (or Martin playing out of position). TJ and White have the same problem with Patterson in front, Parsons/Delfino on one side and Asik on the other, though displacing Patterson is probably more likely than displacing Martin. So, Motie probably has the best opportunity by playing backup center, assuming he can do that better than Patterson, TJ, White, and Greg Smith.

    Ditto, my take exactly. He seems like the best prospect, but hopefully the others will surprise. Long term my money is on Donuts.

    I'm giving my vote to Motie.

    Looking forward to seeing what all four can do.

    You have to vote for the "lesser" Dwight Howard. Come on now.

    Royce White is a very talented player

    I predict great things from him.
