    Hopefully they will have a decent PG, or no one will look good.

    Uthoff went undrafted but makes zero sense now that Layman is on board.

    Neil whiffed on signing GP2.

    I thought Dwight Buycks and LaDontae Henton were going to be on the roster?

    What the hell?! Houston nabs GP2 & Wiltjer within an hour of the draft ending?

    Good work by Morey. I guess Neil isn't handing out 3 year deals to undrafted free agents just yet.

    He gave them to montero and alexander instead last year. Lolz.

    Stupid. Cut montero and alexander to save 400kish each. Sign wiltjer and gp2 to those deals. I think you actually come out way ahead and have 800kish more in cap space this offseason. Every little bit counts.

    I'm pretty sure that Montero isn't going anywhere. I think management predicts great things from him.

    Can someone sum up how our summer league will go, preferably in Layman's terms?

    I'm excited to see Montero play. Heard he really grew as a player and person from practices this past season.

    This really needs to be the Vonleh and Montero show to see how they have grown. I'd like to see Vonleh play some point-forward (he played guard in high school) and see what types of decision making ability he has. Also, he needs an improved outside shot and I'd like to see him abuse smaller players on the block.

    I'd also like to see Montero's creativity in running the offense and setting up other players as well as making better shooting decisions.

    I'd also like to see Elgin Cook get a shot at least for Summer Camp. He can shoot it a little from the outside, is strong enough to score inside, plays multiple positions and has a pretty tough mindset about him. He can score, rebound, create a bit and just seems like a solid glue guy that can be versatile.
