    "Broooooce"

    Canaan-->Land of Hope & Dreams-->Springsteen-->Bruce.

    Is "cannon" the correct pronunciation of his name? It looks like it would be "kaynan."

    If the former is correct, I nominate Canaan Fire for his long-range shooting ability.

    Don Cannon is actually the one who has "The Cannon!" all over his music. If you heard it on DJ Drama songs, then Don Cannon was probably involved in the production.

    I like this! Of course, Bill Worrell will probably make some catch line, like "Canaan for 3...BOOOOOM!!" or "he runs like he was shot out of a Canaan!"

    Seems like the Aaron Brooks replacement, Third string PG. Will probably spent most of next season on the Mexican Snake team.
    Nonetheless i like the pick he's a scorer, has range, strong.

    3rd string point guards don't have a problem becoming the 1st stringer pretty quickly with the rockets. Lin was a 3rd stringer with us at one point.

    Mike Breen is going to love when the Rockets play on ESPN.
