    its in reference to how we purchased Seattles second rd pick - which we then used on Mandry.

    27. New Orleans
    Hornets
    (to Portland,
    then to Houston)
    Darrell Arthur 6-9 PF Kansas / Sophomore
    Smooth big man with a scoring mentality and very nice potential both facing and with his back to the basket.
    Comparison: Antonio McDyess / Josh Powell Competitors: Luis Scola and Carl Landry
    Rookie season salary*: $977,160 Ranking: 10th Power Forward / 8th Sophomore


    Still more conflicting information. Arthur is the best player of Greene/Dorsey/Arthur.

    I still have hope in getting D. Arthur. Hopefully when the dust settles that's what will happen.

    Dorsey won't even make this team.

    This is my sentiment as well. Arthur makes the team with ease and is an athletic upgrade over Landry.

    But we're still lacking something important:

    A backup SG!!

    Why can't we have an overload in that position?

    ESPN reports Arthur is finally a Rocket. His third team tonight. Originally to New Orleans, then to Portland, then to Houston.
