    I think Wizards 5th pick may also be had for eating some garbage contracts like Jamison. With the 5th pick, morey will certainly get a great load at our PG position, probably Flynn or Jennings, not Rubio though.

    I agree that a pick in the hid 20's could be had but who would you want to pay guaranteed money to that can be had there?

    In Morey I trust. Some talent always slips threw the cracks or the rockets could be targeting a player no one is even thinking about ie. (#26 Aaron Brooks), who came out of nowhere. Its looking like this could one heck of an opportunity to get a very talented point guard added to the stable of young PGs the rockets already have.

    If Morey and Adelman think or know that they can get good talent then paying would not be a problem. The past drafts were productive for this management thus any movement to get in the draft would mean a player is there that could be ready to contribute to the team.

    Any team wanting to take a player without paying could also draft a Euro prospect and stash them overseas for a year or three, kind of like SA did with Scola. That worked out really well for us!
