    That is correct. Only Leunen has looked like an NBA player so far. He plays smart and knows his role.

    Budinger looks intimidated and overmatched physically. He doesn't seem confident at all.

    White is out of control.

    nah just clarifying...just seemed like you meant they should take more mid-range jumpers and stop and pops rather than driving. If you can get to the rim with ease I say take it you just better be able to finish or create by dishing out.

    James White could possibly have a chance at it. But, if any of these guys becomes a regular rotation member(as is) it'll be a sad day for Rockets fans.

    Out of all the things White may not be....saying a guy who is explosive enough to dunk under the legs from the free throw line "isn't quick" is ridiculous. Maybe his reaction time isn't the best (which will get better playing more ball, it is the first game he has played significant minutes in more than half a year), but to say he isn't quick completely slaps the science of physiology.

    In other words, you have to have some amazing quick-twitch muscles to jump like that....

    This team reminds me of our own when we suck. Constant turnovers.

    "I really think I would like to get Randolph's testicles in my mouth if possible."

    I swear he just said that? :confused:

    Temple is guarding Curry well, which doesn't surprise me since I watched a lot of his games at LSU.

    Just because he's athletic doesn't mean he's quick.

    He is not laterally quick, he may be able to jump high, but he is not able to get by these 2nd tier players.

    Von would be blowing by everyone out there, as would Brooks.

    The only player looking like he might impact the Rockets this year....is possibly Luenan because he is a smart PF that can hit the 3 ball something we need.

    Actually add Budinger too that as possible NBA players, he moves very well off the ball...something that is imporatant in the NBA.
