    Alston, Spanoulis
    Bonzi, Head
    McGrady, Snyder
    Battier, Novak
    Yao, Howard

    Good enough to make the roster...
    Hayes, the Kobayashi of rebounds, but is he a fit/fill a need on this team?
    Lucas, signed for his shot, but where is it?

    Touch and Go:
    Sura, Bowen, Deke

    Making claims:
    Padgett, Haryasz

    Hanging by the thread:
    Azubuike and Jacobsen

    A 2 for 1 trade would make things easier but teams are going to wait until the final roster deadline.

    yeah, but the fact that Dallas agreed to draft a better player first, then trade him back to us, for an inferior player, still makes them sucky. so Dallas sucks.

    on another note, it's good to see that the offseason moves seem to be panning out gradually...at least we can claim to have somewhat of a young nucleus that will be around longer than 3 seasons (Yao, V-Span, Novak, and maybe Snyder)...t-mac's not old, but he's got a lot of mileage on those knees and back...

    Seems like the Rox would be better off w/o Bonzi (ironically).

    He means the Rocks will regret the dollars they will eventually have to give him, because he's going to be so damn good. ;)

    I hope we can see this shoot the lights out game every night. The Rockets surely have lots of gunners for the coming season. Great game by Billy. He seems suited for the running game. Rafer will have good backups in the person of Billy and Luther as well as JL3. I thought the Bucks will not gonna miss from the outside with Redd shooting back to back 3s. Good thing the Rockets got going and matched the Bucks in the shootout.

    snyder-head
    rafer-bill

    lost thier role: howard, deke.

    make the team, but inactive: lucas, jacobson, padgett

    moving on: sura, bowen, haryasz, azubuike

    it must make things easier for players to have a 7'6 guy with a jumper, who commands double-teams on the team.

    billy and novak both shine when they play with yao.

    Did anyone spot those fans at the TC with the Greek flag? We now officially have Baklava Only Fans. :cool:

    Oh yeah, and I am going to have me some nice Greek cuisine at Yia Yia's tomorrow night.
