Jacquescas: I hear what you are saying and I can agree that we could replace Luther Head, but a second-round pick in this year's draft will not bring us what Head would this year. And I am still not as sold on Roy as everyone else. He is very good, but I don't see him as appreciably better than Brewer, who we likely could get at the #8. I guess this team just has too many holes to fill for these two draft choices and the MLE, and a Brewer/Head tandem would take care of the two for at least the next two seasons.

Brewer can't shoot, that's one pretty big difference. Do the Rox really need another player who can't knock down the outside shoot??

another good one

NBA Comparison: Tim Duncan

Strengths: One of the top overall talents in college basketball already... Has all the makings of a future NBA superstar.. Only 18, and has a ton of physical developing to do, a scary thought... Can stroke shots all the way out to college 3... Similar to A-Rahim with his smoothness, and offensive skills, but has even more athleticism.. Very strong post and intermediate game... Has excellent rebounding and defensive skills.. Very calm court demenor, (similar to Tim Duncan) doesn't get rattled easily.. Sometimes the lack of emotion gets confused with a lack of desire, but it's there...

wow. if that is a legit scouting report on eddie griffin, then just wow. that line in bold almost made me cough up a lung.

and the next line in bold, below, has got to be in the running for understatement of the past five years.

Weaknesses: Ball Handling abilities are not super... Needs to get alot stronger.. Needs to get nastier (on the court).. Character questions have resulted from two separate incidents involving off the court fights with teammates, one in HS one in College.

Shane Battier is a good roleplayer on a deep team. I wouldn't mind having him on the rockets.
