    looks like he'll be cut from the team. probably there in case taylor has a terrible preseason, and taylor has been ok so far.

    Every poster on this board has played just as much as Romel Beck.

    If he's going to be a bench warmer, what the hell are we paying Brian Cook for then?

    I've been critical of Brian Cook before, but he hasn't been half bad this preseason. Of course, it's only preseason. I think he wouldn't be half bad if we had our 2 superstars healthy and playing. He'd be an adequate role player but i'd rather not have him now since we don't look to be "contenders" this season.

    He's done a better job of not just camping out for 3s. He's shown he can put the ball on the floor some and set solid screens and not be completely useless.

    I think he can definitely help this year's team.

    Things don't look so good for Romel Roberto Beck Castro. I was hoping he would turn out to be a taller Wafer. And I really wanted to see him up against Kobe as a Rocket. Rockets could always use another long defensive minded 3 pt shooting athlete at the 2 spot. I can't count Ariza as a true SG until he learns to handle the ball a heckuva lot better.

    romel is a baller hands down, and the way taylor has been playing adelman should of at least given romel the opportunity to play some minutes to see what he can do, you never know how a player may turn out unless you give him a chance in a real game, so to say the least im very dissapointed he hasn't seen any action.. cmon rick play him :mad:

    He's there for 5-on-5 drills and to carry bags.
