If the Rockets can't trade up, this is a great draft to have three picks. Think about last years draft for a second. Where would Kenyon Martin fall on this years draft board? I think it's possible that he wouldn't crack the top ten of this years draft. Tell me what you think. I know three #1's would chew up some cap space, but I don't think we have much of a shot a CWEBB anyway. Three firsts in this years draft would improve the team. Any improvement means playoffs next year. If we do trade up, give me Rodney White.
The three picks would hurt roster space more than cap space since rookies usually are paid less than they are worth, unless they suck. ------------------
yep yep. we gotta trim down from 3 picks to 2. there's just not enough room on the roster. this draft is mighty deep, especially compared to last year's draft. i'm guessing that kmart would make the top 10, though. and i think stromile swift and darius miles would also, though just barely. ------------------
To me, I wouldn't want 3 rookies plus Coller, Langhi, and Sean Coleson on my roster. I suppose 2 could be on IR, but thats too many youngsters to compete. ------------------ "Chucky who? I thought we were talking about basketball?" Charles Barkley
Cut Coleson since he won't ever get significant PT. I wouldn't mind keeping all 3 picks if we can't trade up but please don't trade down for 2nd rounders because this draft is very deep and a solid rotation guy will be left at #23. ------------------ President of the (the Rockets first pick in the draft) fan club.
