    Beverley's quickly becoming my favorite player on the Rockets. Not big, not particularly gifted offensively, but he completely changes the flow of the game through pure heart and hustle. Can't help but to admire that.

    Beverley is great. I wonder what Morey will trade him for.

    If history is to repeat itself, looks like Lin will be shipped out, only to return years later as our third string PG

    100% basketball play. No need to "apologize"

    Not sure if I like Bev or Parson more

    If he turns out to be something like Lowry, then the answer is another superstar.

    The Rockets need more athletic agile players. This team has enough high motor guys and needs more atheletes.

    Parsons and Harden are our only untouchables right now, but damn does Beverley have something to say about that. I want to see a full season of Beverley, Parsons, and Harden on the court

    All this kid needs is a deadly accurate 3 point shot, a in the paint floater and another gear to slow down a bit and see the floor a little better. All of which are attainable with a lot of practice.

    What he has now is a defensive quickness-tenacity, amazing leaping ability, high speed motor and shotblocking skills that rank him in the top tier for wing players. All of which are unattainable and you must be born born with.

    If he can achieve the 3 point shot and floater alone he will be a perennial all-star. Is this knee jerk reaction? Not really. I wanted Rondo when the Rockets traded for Battier. He had all the skills Beverly had and lacked a 3 point shot are much of any shot when he came in. I am not saying Beverly will become Rondo but he is already a better 3 point shooter (Rondo sucks at 3 point shooting) and no one ever thought Rondo would become Rondo. So I am saying you never know.
