Hypothetically, if all of these players (many of which have shown up at 15 in mock drafts) are available when the rockets pick at 15, who would you take. Or do you trade up or down?

I have yet to see a mock draft that does not have us picking Nachbar at #15. I wouldn't be surprised at all, given Rudy and CD's track record, if they selected Tayshaun Prince or even Ryan Humphrey with the pick. Rudy has always been a big fan of players who completed their eligibility in college (Mobley, Collier, Morris). Prince is money from behind the 3-point arc and has a lot of savvy after growing up in the C-P-T. I think Humphrey could be a lot like a George Lynch type player. A defensive stopper at the 3 spot who can bang down low and grab rebounds.
I would take Nene but there is zero chance him being there. Jeffries and Woods are unlikely to be there, but I'd take either. Stoudemire and Nachbar would be a tough call--I hope we get to make it. No thanks for the other 3.
I have picking Stoudemire at 15 I doubt it will happen do to the intrest in Nachbar and Yao a big man at one but still I would rather have Amare be a back up to Yao or if we use Kenny in trade bait Amare could back up Mo T.
First of all, it wasn't the lol I didn't get, it was the refresh comment. Sounds like the Rockets may trade this pick to Golden State and hopefully ensure they have a lottery pick next year. I am down with that. I think that's a smart move with an eye on the future. In the mean time a rotation of Rice, Griffin and Morris might have to do at the 3. I guess it wall all shake out on Wednesday.
