    he's a great shooter but can get lost on offensive end.

    I'm for it. Luther Head, you are the weakest link. Goodbye!

    But www.nbadraft.net has us taking Chris-Douglas Roberts. 6"7 backup SG? I'll take that too.

    Wrong forum, but if CDR drops to the Rockets, they'd have to take him. He penetrates and finishes like few NBA two-guards. He's as relentless as Corey Maggette, and he'd be a great fit.

    another guy, along with Igoudala i would love to have on this team...but even still, Artest is my guy...

    and yes, i believe he is a free agent...he has "mentioned" that he wants to stay in Sacramento, but he was almost a Rocket THIS YEAR...if it wasn't for Morey silly ass not wanting to trade Brooks, we could have someone pestering and hounding Boozer/Kirilinko all freakin night and still "not be tired enough" to score 22-25pts...

    WE NEED A GUY LIKE ARTEST !!!!!

    Jordan feels like a bust to me. He really disappointed me this year at A&M. He has all the tools, but like the Greens and Swifts before him, he doesn't really have the motivation or motor to get him going.

    But the fact that he's taller than 7 ft will help him make more of an impact than Swift or Gerald ever could.

    Grabbing a few more boards and blocking a few more shots is not enough...

    courtney lee courtney lee courtney lee. he's my pick all the way. he reminds me of roy minus pg skills but a better shooter. he'd be a perfect compliment to the battier mcgrady 2-3 combo. and like roy, i think he's gonna be the most nba ready of all the draft picks around him.

    Courtney comes from the English Courtenay, derived from regions and old French words. It is also an Anglicized Gaelic word. Courtney is originally both a surname and a boy's name.

    Notable Courtneys include:
    Joscelin de Courtenay Count of Edessa - he was an ultra
    badass
    crusader.
    Dave Courtney - British gangster
    Henry A. Courtney, Jr. - posthumous recipient of the Congressional Medal of Honor against the Japanese at Okinawa, also a total freakin'
    badass.
    Courtney (last name withheld), a girl I dated. She was extremely attractive, and I'm still in love with her.

    That said, pass on Courtney Lee. I'm not too thrilled about the Courtneys we've seen in the NBA thus far...

    It's his work ethic and intelligence that's really attractive. Sounds Rocketish to me.

    Courtney Lee's short arms reduce his 6-5 frame to that of a 6-3 guard. IMO he won't be able to get his shot off when guarded by almost any NBA SG.

    I saw a pre-draft video of his a couple of days ago which also included a brief interview with him,I was concerned with the amount of time he took to shoot the ball.He seems like a real nice and smart man though.I don't like Rush that much but I would prefer him if he drops down to the 25th pick.
