    I wonder if Rockets have any use for a player like Grant or Simons.

    I remember a Small Curry at Davidson that moved well w/o the ball and could shoot the lights out. Not saying at Sheppard is the next Curry but he is the best shooter hands down coming out.

    Any comparisons to Boban are misguided IMO. Edey is much more mobile than that. Still a backup IMO.... but a good one

    So why not go Zach Eddy with the 14th pick? I mean what is there to lose?

    Problem is matching salary. Their bigger salary guys, they likely want to keep.

    Why not Missi? His tape impressed me. I still like Salaun here but wouldn't be opposed to Tyson or George.

    Same question. With the times and measurements, Edey is showing how badly he wants this. I am impressed. Of Course Ware is a stretch center. I personally interested at 14 in both.

    Will @Mediocre Man finally give up on the Blazers if we draft a WABC at 7?

    Edey was a hockey player at one point, that’s got to be a plus for his agility. He’s a hard worker who’s coachable and has improved every year. Can’t hate his work ethic.

    yeah, the came is trending toward three point shooting, but I have a hard time counting Edey as basically useless like I’ve read on this board.

    I thought this was a joke but apparently not.
