    Never really noticed his game, but he's a decent college player. In the pros? Not so much... :(

    Is he Mutumbo's replacement? I like that they picked up a #2 as well.

    And what does this mean for Chuck Hayes?

    If Arthur is healthy, this is a great pick.

    Uh...Landry 2?

    I'm not complaining.

    The Rockets may have just become one of the deepest teams in terms of PF rotation, if Arthur can develop into Landry 2.

    I'm kinda iffy on this trade......because now we're overloaded on the PF position.
    Although I can see what Darrell Arthur would bring to us, and that is defense. Plus, he's a little taller than Landry and has better potential, so I wouldn't be surprised if Landry gets traded. Or not (I want to keep him).

    You can never have enough quality players.
    Nice trade, and I would imagine they are not done.

    he's not taller than landry, and he's about 30lbs smaller. he's 6'8 1/2 in shoes, 6'7 1/2 without shoes. not to mention only 215lbs.

    I think Arthur is probably better than Landry in some areas.
