    At least we don't have play with Ghost men.

    Hope Lucas can knock down some open jumpers, that's all I ask for.

    Calvin had a least one son I know of. He played at Strake Jesuit with Jake Voshkul. He later played, er, sat on the bench at UH. He was very short.

    I think these 2 moves help our depth a great deal. I think Lucas will help in terms of outside shooting as he shot 6-6 from 3 vs the NBDL austin team the other night. Josh Davis I'm not sure what to expect out of him. If he can rebound and hussle along with hitting the outside shot here and there he'll be a solid pickup. Go Rockets!!!

    being named a captain means jack - it's a titular thing, usually done for the veterans. wesley is one of our captains/co-captains, i think, and if he is, i'll be damned if that means he isn't "going anywhere else."

    lucas can play like a hoss. i saw him play in person when OK State came to play at A&M, and he was a crunchtime king. it doesn't matter how short you are - if you can sink jumpers and free throws like homeboy, you will get some minutes, especially on the Rockets. just like all of the posters have already said, we don't have anyone that can sink an open jumper consistently right now, aside from Mac and maybe LH.

    You mean aside from T-Mac and maybe Juwan Howard?

    JHo and DWesley are the two most unappreciated Rockets on this BBS

    I like the Lucas signing. We need quickness, we need a real point. Lets see what he can do, lets see his attitude out there. Rafer will be back ina few weeks, I hope he is healed enough to go left. A one way point guard won't help much.

    These kind of moves won't help us at all. They (Rockets management team) are doing this to buy themselves a little time and face. I hope CD is trying to get involved in Artest trade at least, no matter it is gonna be a three-way or four-way deal.

    Buncha girlie men! What part of we have SIX GUYS INJURED that are VERY GOOD PLAYERS aren't you getting? CENBO?.. the front office trying to save face? You make it seem like the Rockets owe us a trade just to quell your girlie emotions. TRUST ME the Rockets and CD are just as frustrated as you are. And even if they were trying to make trades, who IN THE WORLD would trade for players on the INJURED LIST? Use some common sense dude. The Rockets don't owe anyone anything because they're doing all they can to win. They aren't and haven't been the CLIPPERS as long as Les Alexander has owned the team. Before you go ranting and whining on this board, be sure to take your daily allowance of Midol. Thank you

    If you can't get what people are saying, stop talking.
