    Based on what I have seen of him, I am not even remotely excited he will suit up as a rocket. However, his game might level up, due to the motivation of being signed by an NBA team.

    Another morey move. Needs to build up every single nugget he can to pull off his 1 year in the works trade or bust scenarios like Pau Gasol.

    man, he did not impress me at all when he played here in Manila.

    I mean, Morey!!! head-scratcher, when our need is for someone who can shoot the three-ball or a giant in the post

    Maybe there is something about this kid that makes Morey think he could play the 3. That would be a good reason to give him a shot. But there is almost no film on this kid. I watched most of game 2 of the PFB finals of 2010 and nothing really impressed me considering how weak that league is. Still that was 2 years ago maybe he has improved. I am sure Morey sees something to give him a longer look. Not sure what it is.
