Please forgive me

I was talking on AIM with the Mod Sportsworld and my friend was on my profile, I went to the store and I thought I logged off. And he made a thread in the OT board about SW and posted pics about him. Next thing I know I came back and saw it, and I got banned.

I was expecting to see Carl Landry, but I'm glad he will rest his knee some more. Hopefully he still worked on his game a lot this summer.

No Scola? No Head? No NOVAK!?

Steve Novak lighting up at the summer league has been an annual tradition now. Does that mean we won't bring him back?

“Steve is a valuable asset to the Rockets,” Morey said.

You can interpret that statement in a number of ways, but it certainly looks like he'll stay with the team for the immediate future.

Scola is preparing for the Olympics (same for Newley and Eliyahu, Yao is not the only one)
Head didn't play last year or the year before either
Novak we already knew what he brings on the table
Green said he was too good for summer league (last year i think)

hey guys, iv'e on vacation for the longest time and i'v missed the draft and all this rocket talk. how are our new rookies? so far iv read greene has potential but settles too much for ill-advised jump shots, but from his interviews he sounds like a great kid. also dorsey great defender, but lacking on offense? anything else?

yeah, i hope he steps his game up and gets picked up by someone. It'll be really hard for him to crack the rotation here but who knows....

I'm surprised Joseph Jones didnt get drafted. I thought he was a sure second rounder, if our team wasnt as stacked I would love for him to be on our team.

Our summer league team will be coached by Elston Turner and we will play 5 games from July 14-20.

I think we should make a thread to talk about the summer league.
