    The majority or Morey's draft picks have been better than Hill and all were lower than 8.

    hopefully we waive fisher after the deadline for teams being able to sign players so hes stuck in purgatory of free agency. Lakers will be so pissed.

    Maybe Fisher is now realizing Houston's Med Center > LA's Med Center for his daughter.

    Lakers should really not be too happy about Hill. It might seem like a splash right now but they wont be getting much from him.

    Does he immediately get cut and resigns for minimum with the Lakers?

    I doubt it. I don't know the full details, but I believe LA is one of the very few places in the world where Fisher can get the correct eye treatment for his daughter.

    It would make sense if he planned to retire and move back to LA anyway.

    That's debatable. I'd say he would probably be picked as a low first rounder if teams knew how he would have turned out so far.

    I think this is a fair deal, not good, just fair. I guess since we now have Camby, Hill is pretty much the 13th or 14th guy on the team. Might as well get something out of him. Morey is pretty good at picking up solid players in the #20+ range.

    I was being facetious, but Houston's Med Center is considered one of the tops in the world also. Wouldn't doubt if we had that treatment available here also.

    You really shouldn't bring up his daughter's medical condition in any way, shape or form.

    Morey has been and continues to say that this years draft is deep. Where did you get this info?

    A sad day in Rockets History... Just broke my little girls heart.[​IMG]

    We went after Dwight and got Fisher...

    I don't feel like going to work today, hope Fisher fails the Physical.

    Because? In no way was I belittling her situation. Get a grip.

    Btw, Houston does have a treatment facility for her condition.

    I think we keep Fisher based on his leadership alone.
