    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Calling them the &ldquo;Most Known Unknowns&rdquo; in league training camps, SLAM Magazine identifies five players as training camp sleepers, noting &ldquo;it&rsquo;s important to be able to identify the underdogs&rdquo;. Among them: the Nets&rsquo; Robert Hite, who played well for the Heat last season, for the Sioux City Skyforce in the D-League and finally proving himself in the summer league. The Nets, report SLAM, &ldquo;appear to be pretty optimistic about what he can bring to the roster.&rdquo; Hite has a partial guarantee.</div></p>

    They better be optimistic about a guy they signed.</p>

    He looked good in the summer league, but its the summer league. I don't know what to expect.</p>

    I hope he can be the shooter we need off the bench. it'd be nice to have a player like that on the roster, he could turn out to be a major contributor.

    him or b rob is going to get those minutes. the way I see it, that guarantees one of them to be a waste of space.

    he did look good in summer league, but so did marcus last year but things changed once the nba started. minutes play a big factor and being able to get consistant minutes. in summer league you know your going to play and your going to play a lot, summer league is great for offensive players to shine because of the open play. lets see what he can do in a structured system when plays are not being run for him. i def. liked what i saw him SL from him, saw some hops too, but SL and even training camp are on two different levels. excited to see him play with jason and our running team.

    Not knowing anything about him, I'd prefer him to Houston.
