    For those who may not have seen it, there is a story on him on the main page of CC.net that says he's due into Houston and other cities for a workout.

    (by another Nickname)and said that he will be a good fit to the Rocket way of play just to let you Know he would have had better stats if he would have played more the 25 minutes per game he is the best Center that ever played here
    BTW there are talks here that Mario Elli is going to play for the same team (Maccabi Tel-Aviv the team who have won almost all of the championships in the last 30 years or so) have you guys heard something about it?

    i am not sure but i think he will be a FA
    if he will be drafted i think it will be a late 1st round pick or a high 2nd rounder. he is by my opinion batter than Ikovas tzakl(whatever) but he will have to work more on his body

    Why have we not heard anything about him previous to now? I missed your post Israeli Rocket, but even still, if he is that good, shouldn't he have been noticed or written about before?

    I remember reading posts about him before. Didn't he graduate from college 3-4 years ago, therefore he should be a free agent. Where did he go to school? anyone?

    just checked out his various profiles... with his cartoonish grill he's just the man for a cartoonish Rocket uni!
    i'm thinking of the part in 'Cinderella' when the horse turns into the coachman...

    isrock- i fear it's a tad irreverant in the current context but its origin, I believe, is Syriac;
    my G-d, my G-d...why have you forsaken me?
    it was a play on words as well as a reference to the Junkyard Dog, 'Elli'... and how we need more guys like him with It. props to Will...
