    We can give 2 right?

    Probably Troy + either Peak or Paula.

    But I wouldn't mind the Rocket giving Troy a real multi year NG contract. With his size and hustle, he'll be worth the roster spot. He is a 22 year old Corey Brewer, he'd be great for some spot up minutes.

    This guy is very green....he will learn from his mistakes. #43 pick in last year's draft. You can't teach 7'2" BUT you can add weight on his 210 lb. frame. He CAN hit the 3 as he showed last night (as opposed to say Dwight Howard shooting 3's) and when he is bigger he will be better inside. Hard to bang with the big bodies when you weigh 210. He also seems to be an "energy" player...another thing I like...you can't teach heart. I'll be surprised if he is not a contributor once he bulks up and learns the NBA. JMO. Like Troy Williams too.JMO of course.

    Can someone explain to me why Zhou Qi and Troy Williams can't be packaged in a trade?

    I think Troy get a min deal.

    I initially thought it would be Peak and Oliver... but with Oliver signing a deal today, I think it'll be Leak and Jones.

    Paula looks terrible and doesn't seem to any NBA skill. Just freakish length

    Easy with the LOL. Just wondering if we could sign him and trade him, but I guess you can't package him with others then?

    No we couldn't trade him with other players, and the most we could sign him for is our BAE(3.2 mill). So there's nothing really there to accomplish.

    I also saw Harden and Chris Paul watching the warriors/sixers game together.

    I think Isaiah Taylor may be the best player on the summer league team

    What was interesting to me was their body language. Every time one was on the phone, the other was very interested in that conversation too. Maybe confirmation bias on my part, but seems like these 2 are doing some heavy recruiting.

    He's harden 's boy. He's working out with Harden in a select group of Rockets.

    He's the James James of the Rockets. As long as Harden is here for another 7 years, Bobbi Brown will be a Rockets for next 7 years. Get used to it

    Chris Paul and James Harden are among the faces in the crowd at the Rockets-Cavaliers summer league game in Las Vegas. Paul and Harden will spend several days in Vegas working out with teammates P.J. Tucker, Trevor Ariza and Bobby Brown.

    I'm glad Zhou played. His education is continuing. He will get better with time. Troy should get a contract from the Rockets. I'm not sure about Taylor, on the Rockets, but I wouldn't mind him as the 15th man. Good to see Nanu out there. He needs minutes in the D-League though.

    Why are you obsessed with trading vet min and rookies? That won't accomplish anything as their salary is too small, and if they do blow up you end up regretting it.
