    Exactly, I would bet Morey is not happy he gave Dorsey a 2 year guarantee..

    Nice game by the team. The Rockets have nice young players that may contribute some day. Morey needs to address the needs in the next month: starting C, backup C, and SG. I hope it all gets done before the season begins. I don't want to wait on two of stars coming back. TMac should be gone before the season begins.

    Im not sure I agree with that, They knew he was a bit of a project. It's not as if they broke the bank when they signed him. He showed improvement in the second half

    Yeah, but he still doesn't look like an NBA player, just a guy who has power, athleticism, and no offensive game.

    Like a 15th man on the bench at best....

    I would rather have that roster spot open on a guy that shows promise for the team's future.

    So far, I have not seen that out of Dorsey.

    He looks like a guy who got an inflated opinion of his game because he played with Derick Rose.

    Can't wait to see JT play though. I liked Dorsey, Temple, Maarty. Budinger and White had there times and they did some stuff really well (ex: Budinger really runs well without the ball which is very important IMO. White made some clutch ft's), however they did some bad aswell. Next games will tell.

    Give it time.

    Wafer actually had a chance to prove himself with REAL non-garbage time mins when Tmac went out.

    James White-Joey Dorsey did not. Lets not count these guys out so quick because of a summer league game. They will have more than this one game...More SL games and possibly Pre-season games to prove they earn some real mins and go from there.

    Missed the game, but judging by what people here say, and what David Thorpe's twitter says, G. Temple looked pretty good.

    He was one of the long-shot guys (not on roster, not even a draft pick), but I wonder if he's gonna get a chance a la Chuck Hayes.

    Im sure I know who you want on the team ;) And yes Dorsey is still very raw,but we have nothing inside at the moment. If he can play some D and clean up the boards I would be happy
