will we past on a local product again??? in the 2nd round....Daniel Gibson..... looks like it's gonna be us or cleveland that takes him since he only worked out for those 2 teams....*flashbacks of rashard lewis.......*
Yes, I think we will probably pass on Gibson. I don't think he“ll have the kind of success Lewis has had though.
I really think Gibson hurt himself by not continuing his college career and going into the draft. I think he has some potential but is a classic example of a young athelete that should have stayed in college to further refine his game, especially since players of his caliber and size appear to be a dime a dozen this year. I would actually rather see the Rockets pickup PJ Tucker in the 2d round if able. That guy has a lot of heart and is very athletic.
Well we passed on Lewis only in the first round -- three times, but by the time we picked in the second round, he was gone.
DX has us taking him but i dont want another short combo gaurd, i'd much rather have a guy like Mardy Collins or Kyle Lowry and posssibly Novak
PJ Tucker is slated to go in the second round. He will be a steal if he drops that far in the draft. Rockets should take him in the second round.
Jay Bilas has Lowry rated in the top 15 draft prospects...and most mocks have him in the 20s. If we can get him, I'd be freaking ecstatic...
I'd be happy with Collins for sure. I'm a little down on Tucker and Gibsonas prospects, mostly because they're so small for their positions. I like Josh Boone a lot as potential insurance at PF, but I've heard that he's looked terrible in workouts and has almost no heart. Evan
I really liek Gibson, I think he could develop, but he should have stayed in UT for another year or for 2 more years, I like Gibson and all, but he's not ready to contribute yet. I think we should get Dee Brown, he would be a good back-up point guard, and he would have his old teammate Luther Head. Wouldnt that be awesome?!??
i would LOVE to see PJ Tucker in a rockets uniform. he's a tough, athletic, hard-nosed, and extremely productive player. however, i don't think he'll get to #32.
