Well this is just great. We lose out on Martin and Swift and get left with Mihm and Fizer? Yikes, no thanks. What are the chances of Vancouver being r****ded 2 years in a row? Thats the only way we are guaranteed Swift or Martin. And taking Miles with the 3rd pick isnt worth giving up all that we have to because I think we can get him with the 5-8 range, but not good enough to slip to us. Give me any responses you guys can give me. Do we go by way of Free Agency now? I dont have a clue what the Rockets are gonna do next, but it doesnt look good as far as us getting Swift. ------------------
From the looks of it, the top 2 picks are going to be Kenyon Martin and Stromile Swift. I would be ecstatic if the Grizz would trade Swift to the Rockets but based on the article posted by JeffB in another thread, it does not seem likely. I cant blame them either, it is difficult to turn down a forward tandem of Swift and Rahim with a backcourt of Bibby and Dickerson. I think the Rockets pretty much have to look into getting what they can at the 9th pick (Jerome Moiso?). ------------------ Check out the Best Source for Draft Info Draftsource.net
It happened once (with Frances), it can happen again (with Stromile). The Rockets can virtually relocate: South Vancouver. While it might seem daunting to deal with the Rockets again, the Grizzlies came out well with Dickerson and Othella. Both teams did well in a somewhat forced situation! ------------------ There are 3 kinds of people: those who can count and those who can't.
The only problem is the Griz are under new management and ownership. Much like Dallas, I don't think Vancouver will be a pushover anymore and make horribble trades. ------------------
Nothing is bad about the #9 pick. We have a chance at B mill. and Darius Miles. Thoose playas are going to kick butt. We dont need a PF that bad we already have- T mass, Rodgers and KT. If Mass recovers we could have good deoth up in front. ------------------ Roxs team of the furture. IM bACK!!!!
Good luck trying to get Fizer at the #9 position. And if he were available at that spot, I'd be ecstatic. ------------------ ?
