    We were all sure we were getting a superstar last offseason but ended up empty handed. Nothing is promised in this league. Saying we're fine is the same thing we said last year, before eventually getting kicked out the 1st round. I'm not sure what Morey was thinking, but a decent veteran PF/C should've been our number 1 priority after Bosh. Instead he chose Joey Dorsey. I pray Dwight doesn't go down from too many minutes

    Didn't even realize Ayon and Vesely were out of the league.

    Not sure why anyone would want them, they are max 15mpg bench guys, and we already have those.

    Harrington is a 3/4, not a 4/5. I'm wondering if we're moving Papa (and others) already....eeeeeeeek!

    We're not cutting Daniels. You can bank on that. Cisco? Possibly. But we'd be better off to peddle away somebody or 2 somebodies in a 1 for none or 2 for 1 deal rather than cut Cisco.

    Can the Rockets sign him or anyone else to the veterans minimum or will they have to use the Bi-annual exception?

    He does not have a contract overseas, because a bus that can not drive on water yet.

    Why not Daniels? He would have been my guess.

    Daniels is a player you can bring off the bench when the offense struggles to try and shoot you back into a game with his 3pt shooting. Granted he hasn't performed when playing, but that doesn't mean he isn't a good shooter. Dorsey is useless, and while i like Garcias demeanor, Al if true is a better player.

    I would think that about Daniels' role too....but Lord knows our offense has sucked on many occasions this young season and Daniels has remained glued to that bench............

    I am just as disappointed as anybody with regards to Dorsey's play. But we have an abundance of shooters that can go lights out at any given night. We only have 3 bigs with one having an injured thumb. Having a big body even if it is just for fouling, setting picks, occasional rebounding, etc, is more important than having a backup 3 pt assassin.

    We really need someone better than Dorsey at as a backup 5. I don't know if Morey and Les/ McHale realize this.
