    This.

    Once Dorsey gets the ball in the paint, he knows what do to with it: dunk hard. Dude is truly built like a Mack truck, and unless you want to chance of having your hands and fingers bent away, almost nobody will be crazy enough to try to block his dunks.

    I'm thinking Morey is trying to weaken Barcelona's team so that Real Madrid has a better chance to win the tittle. So that maybe next season we can bring Sergio Llul over.

    All he has to be able to do is play defense, rebound, and finish strong around the basket when Dwight sits. All strengths of his.

    I really think Greg Smith has more to offer than Dorsey and Adrien, hope I'm wrong...

    I think its more likely that Morey was just joking about signing Dorsey to weaken the team and somehow Dorseys agent slipped in a contract signature page into the Bosh contract. Then Morey saw Dorsey's signature and thought it was Bosh, and then he traded Lin.

    yeah I'm gonna go with that scenario.

    Via the good folks at in-the-game.org, Barcelona was 7.8 points per 100 possession better with Dorsey on the floor.

    Dorsey was automatic at the rim (73.7%) and despite his free-throw shooting woes (43.9%) still a respectable 15th in TS% among centers at 62.5%.
    4th in DRB% (25.1) and 3rd in ORB% (18.3).
    4th in BLK% (6.5) and 13th in STL% (2.0).
    Obviously he'll face much tougher competition in the NBA, but those are (prime-)Dwight Howard numbers.

    Haha :).

    Morey always liked the raw talent Joey Dorsey had. Maybe with Barcelona Joeys BasketBall IQ has improved.

    Dosey looks like he would be a good fit here. Maybe it works out this time.... :)

    Talk about pathetic. You'd think we just traded away Harden and Howard.

    No. We traded Batum for Dante Greene and Darrell Arthur.

    I believe in the Rockets and what they are trying to build even after losing; Parsons (overpaid) Lin(overpaid) and Asik (overpaid) in the off-season. I like all those players. But Joey Dorsey? I want to scream. This guy sux!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Unless he learned how to play defense overseas then this guy still sux!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am sure he is nice guy bla bla bla.....This guy makes me want to sell off my season tix that i do not even have. Yes we got a nice deal on Ariza but i hate watching him play too. Scottie Pippen has not played here in about 16 yrs...make the call!
