    It's time we let our voices be heard. It's time to let Morey know how we feel.
    Let's start tweeting him to let him know. #KeeptheRooks

    It's corny, i know, but it's time to fight fire with fire, so to speak.

    So is there news on the Howard front?
    Alexander said he is content for now.

    The rumors are that Cleveland is pulling back just about every player mentioned in a 3 way deal.

    In other words, Orlando is losing value with every second they don't take the Houston offer.

    I have seen enough of the rookies to know that they will be able to hold it down. We are talking a big 4 here.

    we should pick up first round pick Jeff Taylor instead, or trade lamb for him.

    I'm starting to side with you. You've been right all along Coach, and spot on with the Royce White pick. Can't say I would be crying tears of sadness if we land Dwight, but I would really love to keep these guys and the Toronto pick. That could be a very bright future. Morey did a fantastic job in this draft. Wanted to ask, now that we've seen Motiejunas play, want are your impressions of him?

    Lets just say i was wrong for wanting to trade him for a higher draft pick. I would like to apologize for my greed.:(

    I don't have a really strong preference for either move, whether it's getting D12 or keeping the rookies. I've fully enjoyed watching the summer league.

    But you gotta wonder, we're gonna have too many good, young players. You gotta cash in on those players/picks. It doesn't really work in the NBA to have 3 good forwards.

    I'm still thinking about why our rooks seem to already have chemistry together.
    Did we draft them that way? I thought we took BPA. Is it that they play well in a similar style game? Lamb, White, Jones, Dmo and Machado particularly, they looked great together. And, yes, I know its only Summer League.

    How about no?

    Can we have a #AllStar5toHouston campaign instead?
