    For those going into debate "who's a bust, not a bust", kinda missing point of thread.

    No one finds it amazing you look at maybe the 4 worst picks of the first 11 in the 2009 draft.....and ALL of them are on the Rockets....and NONE of them were selected by the Rockets....four separate trades.

    That is so weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeird.

    He's the second (or first) best player on his team. I'm sure the Bucks could lok back and say, "Wow, we definitely made the right pick with Jennings."

    So are the Buston Rockets practicing together at least?


    I see a trade for Gerald Henderson in the Rockets future.

    So all four guys: Hill, Thabeet, Flynn, and Williams did NOT have their options picked up for their fourth season.

    That has to be a record. It's rare for a rookie scale guy to not have options picked up, but four of the top eleven? And all on the same team.

    Morey is a value buyer. He loves to make trades for undervalued talent and see what happens. But he swung and missed on all four of these guys.
