    lol alvin completely forgot the rockets have their own lottery pick this year (barring a playoff run) back to the drawing board alvin

    probably wont happen, but hey what were the odds they'd get the top pick when they got yao?

    Since both picks we received from the Knicks are lottery protected to some extent ('11 top 1, '12 top 5), does it really matter what year we have the picks or what year Wall comes out? Unless you think Wall wouldn't be the top pick, then those picks wouldn't get us Wall either way.

    Truthfully, I doubt that the Rockets retain those picks. I believe that their most likely used as trade chips.

    There are a lot of delusional posters starting unnecessary threads. It gets so frustrating seeing the front page get so cluttered again and again and again :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

    Didn't the Rockets have a similar situation with the lottery draft the year we got Yao?I could be mistaken but I thought we got lucky with the pecking order there too.Maybe not as big a jump as it would be this year but still a big jump.

    Do you guys realize that if we just miss out on a playoff spot and then get the top spot in the lottery we'll get John Wall? That's only two things that need to happen for us to get John Wall! That would be so AWESOME!!!!!!!!!! Can someone put up a photoshop of Wall in a Rocket uni? I want to get used to that look because the Rockets are getting him. WOOHOO!

    We never had a chance at wall after we started off good.

    Even if we lose a lot more which I dont see happening we would have to compete at worse teams.

    Where is Cousins falling in the draft?

    I kept refreshing and finally got us getting Cousins with the 3rd pick.

    Has John Wall declared for the NBA draft yet? So technically it's not a fact :p
