    Chet will do fine against guards attacking the rim in straight line but if you are not strong enough opposing 5's in nba, grown men, will bully you in the paint so i'm not really high on him. He doesn't have Mobley body to be f.q he should have been ours! Dude fell once and had a gramicing look on his face and they immediately took him off. One small contact and kid airballs his layup. They should play him at 4 like cavs do with mobley.

    Huff is a potentially good pickup

    I think two of the Houston games are on "plain ol'" ESPN, too.

    What’s the lowdown on Huff? Why’s he not on a roster yet? Sounds like the ideal big in this day and age.

    I'm betting Bari builds on his late progress under ime's coaching

    Here is a player that will be playing Friday and might have a chance to be on our roster….shot blocker!


    Jay Huff, a 7-1, 240-pound center, could also be a player to watch with a chance to get to camp with the Rockets and stick around with the Rockets or Vipers. Huff, the G League Defensive Player of the Year and a first team all G-League selection, averaged 15 points, 7.8 rebounds and a league-high 3.1 blocked shots in 28 games with the South Bay Lakers and Capital City Go-Go last season, finishing the season with a two-way contract with the Wizards.

    Good coaching should make a game-changing differerence with this team. Bad shooters miraculously becoming decent just because the offense is geared to set them up to succeed. I hope. Seems like a reasonable possibility.
