    I'm gonna make a bold prediction and say he will be our backup PG Day 1.

    We need to start working on the 2nd and 3rd roster spots, not the 15th and 16th.

    In other words, Morey is going to have a pathetic offseason in FA market again.

    So everyone is down with a pg who shot 30% from college 3pt line and who is afraid to shoot if his guy goes under the screen?

    Ok, can't complain about missing out on Jackson now.

    A defensive C, a defensive PG and a stash prospect with potential. Guess I can't b**** tonight.

    I believe John Lucas III actually played more regular NBA games for the bulls than for the Rockets.
