    Why wasn't Mike Harris put on the SL team? Same with Brad Newley?

    I don't know about Brad Newley, but I don't think Mike Harris can make the roster. I think you can't participate in it if you're in the league over 3 years.

    Correct me if I'm wrong.

    Ronald Dupree is playing for Toronto's team, and he has been in the NBA for 5 seasons.

    Spectacular in leading, being the glue guy n doing the hard work, intangibles accounts for something on a Rockets team with the likes of Battier, Hayes and Scola

    Good point about those setting picks and hitting the open shots. That is Aldrige's bread and butter. Patterson is accurate enough to also make this his bread and butter. I am trying to pigeonhole Patterson's style of play, and it just seems a mix of power forwards: Aldrige, Harford, and West.

    Patterson is rock solid guys, physically and mentally. He will be good for us for many years.

    The way he shows on the pick and roll reminds me of a 1 inch shorter Amare.

    You are right. I forgot about Amare, though Amare can't make 3's. At the end of the day, Patterson may become the "ultimate" PF. I know I am hyping but I was at the game yesterday, and I was just stoked at Patterson's debut. Dude's got game.

    I'm also hyped with Patterson's game, the guy played really mature imo. And Taylor, man I think he's such a ball hog, but yeah he's a scorer and I guess that's what scorers do (at least the young ones)...
