[2015] Rockets Draft Buzz

Russell is Ginobili 2.0.

 

It seems to me that Lull is the key to everything. I think he needs to commit or we go to the next plan before this pick.

The cap situation, the team needs, the tradability of the #18 pick, or drafting a player to be traded for another team.

What's his deal?

That title is reserved for nearly every European wing prospect. Russell isn't eligible.

 

^Crap, wrong thread. Sorry
