Would you guys like this roster? 

Post#1 » by Dragic13 » Sun Jun 10, 2012 10:55 pm

Goran Dragic/Vasquez
Courtney Lee/Austin Rivers
C. Parsons/Chase Budinger
Luis Scola/Motiejunas
JaVale McGee/Tyler Zeller

Reserves: Zoran Dragic, Marcus Morris, Kevin Martin, Patrick Patterson

Trade Kyle Lowry to the Hornets for Vasquez and a first round pick in 2013...I assume they wont be needing it to badly...

I think just hold onto Martin for 1 more year.... Hope Austin Rivers develops and can assume the starting role next year. Maybe by then Zoran is fit to play off the bench? If not just draft a SG. You dont want to go trading for SGs with longer contracts that arnt much better....And every other position is pretty much perfect... So idk what yall would like to do with Martin but lets hear it?

But you guys reallllly dont like him and Like Lee so how about start Lee have Rivers come off the bench and just sit Martin....

Pick up McGee for his defense. Also he has a lot of potential and can be wirey on offense. But playing with that offensive fire power in the starting line-up he doesnt need to be a shot taker. Just a shot blocker.

No to McGee.

I'd rather keep Lee (pretty much a lock barring a completely ridiculous deal) and move Martin.

Motie should be the primare backup at PF, or Patterson (where are they?)

Nope. Looks awful.

Zoran Dragic is a border line NBA player. Austin Rivers is a SG. Morris has slimmed down to the point where he probably isn't able to play the 4 anymore. Where is Patterson? Where is Motiejunas. Who did we trade Lowry for? Why didn't we re-sign Camby?

McGee will get overpaid. Do not want.

I'm pretty sure that Morey will be shopping him pretty hard around the League.

And it needs to be said - it was a very, very, very shrewd move of Morey to go out and add Zoran Dragic to the summer league roster. He may very well make the team...if it keeps his brother around. ;)


But come on - let's not go adding him to the rotation just yet! :lol:

Hoping Zoran shows what hes made of in summer camp.... :D

Also its hard to predict trades teams will make since you need both sides to agree and other factors....

But if anything, I would trade Lowry and Martin in a package for a star SG and maybe a back-up pg if Zoran isnt ready and move Austin down to SG.

Hey, I hope that Zoran pulls a Chandler Parsons and surprises everyone! I'm just not ready to put him in the rotation yet.

Dragic13 - how long have you been following the Rockets? I think that most of us around here are assuming that it is a given that Courtney Lee will be back because the comments that Morey has made about him so far seem to echo what he said about Lowry and Landry when they were RFA's. While a lot of us aren't sold completely on Lee as a starter I think that you need to at least have him on your roster plan at this time.

It will take a ridiculous offer to Lee for the Rockets not to match.

3 white guy, an idiot and a woman in your starting lineup. Perfect for the lottery.

Who the F is Zoran Dragic?

Oh wait, just Googled him, It's Gorans brother.

We almost had Barry Brothers here at the same time.

Can he play Centre?

6' 5"........ He'll be perfect!!!

I think this is going to be my new thing for the offseason. No matter who we draft. They are our new starting Centre.

No because we still have Martin.

Don't really care if we have Lowry or Dragic. Good with either

Yes to McGee as long has he magically comes over for under 9 mil per

Want to keep Lee

And pretty much all this

The Martin hate has got to stop.

It is completely irrational at this point.

Also hate that lineup.

Only thing I would hate more than not trading Martin is to have him on the bench as a reserve wtf?
If he still here He better be starting the 1st three quarters and shooting 10 FT a game :evil:

Dont see him backing up Rivers & Lee.


Also Lars CHANGE THAT F*CKIN SIG!!!!!
