    Does he have to sign a contract to come to training camp? Or is that only for pre-season play?

    For the record: Brooks is only half an inch shorter than Chris Paul.

    And is a better 3pt shooter by far than Nate Robinson.

    His game is more similar to Dirk than Miller.

    The Rockets have to invite him to see how he plays with the big boys !! I mean I seriously would take him over Novak any day but then again it looks like Novak will be gone soon anyway !!

    Here is the thing, if he comes to training camp and for whatever reason, he does not make the team, we lose his rights. Whether he is signed to a contract or not.

    The only way we keep his rights is if he makes the team or he remains unsigned with us and plays pro ball with a team elsewhere, mainly Europe.

    You know Donte Greene's dribbling skills aren't too great but what is positive about how he dribbles is he does keep the ball low and protected on his dribble.

    would aldeman be so pissed watching him play during practice and send him to d-league?
    hehe i can't imagine a coach emphasize on passing would be pleased with d-green's performance.

    Yeah, but Chris Paul is also 15 pounds heavier....that's alot more muscle....Brooks needs to get stronger.

    I couldn't imagine Adelman drafting a kid about one year removed from high school thinking he was getting anything more than what Greene has shown so far.

    Greene was not a top ten pick, Morey and Adelman know exactly what kinda game Greene has.....he's a young guy with MAJOR upside.
