Just guest which players on the Rockets roster at the end of last season will still be here on season opening day. Lowry (traded) Dragic (signed elsewhere) Fortson Martin Lee Parsons Budinger (traded) Morris Scola (amnestied) Patterson Smith Dalembert (traded) Camby (traded) Adrien Did I miss anyone? It's amazing almost half our team is gone in less than a month. Those who wanted this team blown up should be "super happy" -- to use the words of you-know-who.
I hope we keep Parsons, Patterson, Morris and Lee, would love to have Lamb stay also, I think he has real potential to be somthing special. Not sold on White. Just hoping we dont bring in Turk AND JRich however this may have to be the case....
Would be nice to see PPat stay. He is the perfect stretch 4 next to Dwight. Playing next to DH12 could possible turn him into an MIP candidate, (the nDwight leaves and he's back to his mediocre self again).
I hope we keep Lee, Parsons, Lamb, White, Jones and Machado if the deal with the Magic goes down where we end up with Howard, Davis, JRichardson and Duhon. All else I really don't mind if they are traded. This would be a strong young lineup. PG - Douglas / Machado SG - Lee / Lamb SF - Parsons / White PF - Davis / Jones ..C - Howard / Motiejunas Man I wish we still had Lowry or Dragic!!! The one thing I see bothering Dwight here is that he is surrouded by a bunch of Rookies and that may scare him off when it comes time to resign.

There's a grief that can't be spoken. There's a pain goes on and on. Phantom faces at the window. Phantom shadows on the floor. Empty chairs at empty tables Where my friends will meet no more.
I really hope Martin stays on the roster, I find it hilarious how he was the most talked about Rocket player in trade talks throughout the season and one of the last players on the team.
:grin: This tread reminds me of the people who said "OUR TEAM WILL LOOK LIKE A BOY BAND NEXT SEASON YAY!!!" With all these moves who knows what our starting line up will be.
All i know is that if Morey trades away White and D-Mo, I'm gonna lose a ton of respect for him. Let's hope he doesn't get b****ed by a 30 y/o freshman GM whose options are becoming more and more limited by the day.
