    That's a shame. It would be good for him to get NBA playing time.

    Awesome! Novak had 27 points in the last game for the Vipers.

    I think it's better that these guys are at least playing and honing their skills rather than travelling around the country riding the pine.

    Landry...it's interesting that the Rockets don't just announce that both of them are going to the NBDL. I wonder what the Rockets have in mind for Landry.

    If that's true, then good news. I'd like to see Landry do well. 1 game so far 4 pts and 2 rebounds in 4 minutes. Now if he could keep that up for about 20 minutes then he'd be like WOW :eek: 20 pts 10 rebounds

    It's about time. I think that sending him down to the D-League is a good thing for him and the Rockets in general. It will give him more opportunity to play and iron out whatever rough edges he has rather than rot on the bench.

    It also will enable the Rockets to see what he can really do on the court. Hopefully he'll be ready to be called up by the all-star break and perhaps get a significant portion of Rafer's minutes. :D

    Rafer/T-Mac/Francis/Bonzi/Head/James

    Brooks is the last man out at PG. He'd never see playing time in Houston so its better for his development to play him in the NBDL. Landry has a better situation. He only has Scola and Hayes in front of him. If either of them gets injured then Landry will get some playing time.

    I predict that he will light them up, big time.

    I think it's the direct result of Steve Francis starting to play decent game!

    Just gonna get him in shape to help the big club after the post-December 15th trade which alleviates our glut of PGs.
