    Well, we won't know if they hurt or help the Rockets until after this night is over. If the Rockets are able to move in to the top ten and get their then it's a great night to be a Rockets fan.

    But I'll still be happy if they stay where they are at and pick from 14, 23. Can't wait for the new Rocket player(s).

    Unfortunately, that was the consensus last year as well.

    yeah, at this point, if we don't move up, i can see us trading out of the draft and stockpiling picks for next year.

    Just like all of the previous Morey NBA Drafts we are getting all the chit chat!
    We might get luck but I don't expect anything significant like a move up or a trade, hope I am wrong though!:p

    We trade up for Williams. Then flip him for Shane battier. Book it.

    Barring some Morey craziness. . .

    I think we end up picking one of the small forwards with the 14th pick. Prefereably Singleton and end up dealing the 23rd to move into the second round. We already have nine players under contract 10 with our pick. 11 if we resign Chuck. I just don't see us taking on another guarranteed contract to move us to twelve players without even making it into free agency.

    That would be a terrible move considering Shane is a free agent.

    There are how many threads about every rabbit trail rumor on this board right now? There is already a stickied thread for the general tune as well.

    Lets condense the conversation.

    In the end when all is said and done, more will have been said than actually gets done.

    We keep patiently collecting assets. A small forward at 14, Singleton; a shooting guard at 23, Brooks. A point guard at 38. what we do with them, nobody knows..
