    Another (Whiteside, James Johnson) good one gone. Trade Chinanu already so we can hold on to an actual nba prospect. RJ Hunter will be next to get scooped up if we don’t act fast.

    Wow. If he can find a shared roster spot between a team as good as the Suns and their minor league squad, he MUST be good!

    FIRE MURRAY!!

    Whiteside only became good because he started to give a ****. We recognized the talent. That was all on him.

    No, he arguably still doesn’t give a ****. Whiteside became good when he received an opportunity.

    I give PROPS to Morey for bringing in talented guys like Whiteside, Livingston, Lin (the FIRST time, when we cut him) and Covington through the door. I don't hate on him for letting them go. Part of that is on the coach's thoughts and how those players fared behind the scenes.

    With that said, I still don't think House is very good, especially in the modern NBA.

    House really took advantage of his opportunity. He's got the potential to go on and be a productive NBA career. Personally, I think he's got a better mix of athleticism and skill than Kris Middleton. House just needed someone to give him a chance.

    He would have made a nice Rocket if we had injury problems.

    The post also mentions RJ Hunter. I think he's likely to hang around as he doesn't have the athleticism that House has. But wow, Hunter could give shooting lessons. I'd be more worried about losing Hartenstein. True 7-footers don't grow on trees.

    I don’t think we can lose Hartenstein because he was our draft pick. If I understand it correctly, Hartenstein’s current situation is the same as an unsigned draft pick overseas.

    I watched all the Vipers games thus far and came away very impressed with House. Very athletic two-way player with an improving jumper and high motor.
