    It must be Jrue Holiday. At one point he was one of the top PG prospects at one point(top 5 during a couple workouts) I would love to have him. Great defensive minded PG with a NBA body.

    Hansbrough isn't that bad actually. Alot of the teams (Hawks, Knicks, Pacers) who had him at workouts were flat out amazed by his intensity and his skills. Apparently he has a pretty good jumper and can dunk somewhat.

    I think the problem with Hansbrough is his defense. At 6'8 he's kinda undersized, and unlike guys like Power or Glen Davis or Chuck Hayes, he's not the pudgy type who can hold off bigger dudes with his weight and low center of gravity. To make matters worse, intensity doesn't really work on defense because Refs call fouls quite often now. We'll see if Pyscho T can manage to get by on his BBall IQ. Offensively though he should have no problem contributing something though, whether it be rebounds, hustle points or the occasional jumper.

    I'm kicking back and will continue to watch but nothing will be happening for the Rockets. Our competitors all got stronger and we stood pat, which means we will be a lottery team next year unless McGrady and Yao are healthy. :rolleyes:

    But, the Morey love will continue unabated.

    He has everything to be a solid C in the NBA. But there's a great chance he'll be a bust.

    Watched Tyler H play at UNC for 4 years. He will be a decent NBA player. Not a star, but will be solid.
