    So apparently everyone is either a future superstar (Lamb, Motie, White) or a laughable excuse for a bball player (Machado, Fortson). Sounds like CF to me.

    You're skating over the point, but no, they're not potential all-stars because of 3 summer league games. They're (Lamb and Motiejunas) are potential all-stars because they have the talent.

    He can score a few times here and there...his style of play is waaay too erratic. He just doesnt have a very good feel for the game. Do not want, at all.

    And of any of you that dont want the Howard trade...come on. None of these rookies will ever reach where Howard is right now. Lamb has star potential, but even then, he's not going to be on par with the Kobes, Wades, and Durants of the NBA. The other 3 rookies can be solid contributors to a good team. Howard, alone, is better than all 4 combined. The only sad part is that you dont get to see the rookies develop into winners...but that's the cost of a superstar.

    Having said that, we really, really need to hold onto Lamb, if at all possible.

    There is absolutely nothing more annoying than seeing D-Mo posting up in great position but the other guys decide taking a contested 3-pointer is the better course of action.

    We have an advantage in resigning Dwight if we trade for him. That IS worth giving up a couple of promising rookies for.

    I think the Rockets management agrees.

    Going to start calling Lamb J-Smoove, I don't care if Josh Smith already has it.

    I don't think I'm wrong on Morris.

    Lamb was a top 5 projected pick for most of the year. I don't know why we should put a ceiling on his potential until he proves otherwise.

    All he's done so far is impress and impress. If the Rockets were to keep one guy I'm going for him. He'd do better because you can't double Dwight and leave a guy like him open, you just can't.

    But you only base that talent over the three summer league games. You cannot say college, because the difference between college ball and the NBA is huge. And, I am not skating over the point, I just felt like your idiotic view must be adressed. And if 4 unproven rookies stop you from getting Dwight Howard, with having additional cap space to sign CP3, you are on drugs. This team needs to take a risk. They have been to safe. Dwight is a risk, but he is a legitimate player who could bring us more All-Star talent.

    Dmo needs some serious strength and balance training. He is falling down and losing his balance way to much for a big man

    I am not a fan of Morris at all. In fact, I cant stand him.

    There, I said it.
