It doesn't matter who teaches thabeet, whether it is dalembert or someone else. The guy just needs to learn the basics which he can do by watching/learning from delembert imo.however, I admit that I am not a fan of tanking/rebuilding so my opinion on dalembert may be biased. Regarding the draft, it is a deep draft and many players have "superstar potential," not just the top 5 picks.
Say what? Aren't you the guy that called the current roster a WC 4th or 5th seed? So HCA is no longer that important? Or maybe that was just rah-rah-rah. And you've finally realized this is another Rockets' 9th in the WC Lottery-bound season with a dash of "too bad we're not in the EC"? Everything be damned...above all else...they need a C...and not one named Hayes...unless someone's cloned Elvin... But unfortunately...the $Balls won't allow you to overpay for talent...so the Rockets' will have to "bid" on a player that is "hot" to the other 29 teams. Good luck with that one. Sam ain't coming here.
If we are actually going to try and pickup a big man, I'd like for Morey to bring in Kaman or Okafer. Both guys are hard working and have high character which is important when playing with so many young guys. Kaman could be a good mentor for Hill, his offensive game is one i'd like Jordan to copy. Okafer would be for Thabeet, a very good defensive player who is pretty good around the basket. Thabeet needs to become an Okafer type, defense first and finish at the hoop.
What? NO NO NO good sir that was NOT me.......I think that they might shock their way to a playoff spot.....if one of the guys develops. But I want to go young...young young, and live with the results. DD
What if two of them develops? Three? It is very possible you know. I already predict T-Will, Bud and Hill breaking out this year.
I wouldn't want to see him get more than a 1-year deal. He is not worth tying our hands with free agency next year coming up.
Excuse me? "On fire after the trade deadline" ring a bell to you? They got no C...it's the ONLY thing that matters. And they won't pay for one. It's against the $Ball rules. Welcome to a 66 game version of Purgatory. http://bbs.clutchfans.net/showthread.php?t=211829&highlight=seed This team was on fire after the trade deadline last year. Something like a 22-7 finish, if they can get off the ground running like that this year, they can make some noise in the playoffs particularly if some of the youngsters get better.
Well there is really only one player left and thats Howard. Who else is worth saving for in next years FA?
Well yeah, they can get to the playoffs if some of the youngsters get better.....doesn't mean they are contenders. DD
We may go from being the 7th pick in the draft to 9th. No major damage done to our draft prospects. So sure, ink him in.
