    i'd really like to see the rockets take Casey Jacobsen. He's a gamer that played in a big time school. He's faced good competition and has excelled. With the rockets, i could imagine him coming off the bench for mobley(who gets worn down with so much playing time) and spot up for the three. If he was in the draft a few years ago when we still had Hakeem and Charles, he would be a Rudy favorite.
    I'd also like to see the Rockets take a flyer on Lenny Cooke. He sounds like one hell of a player that has underachieved so far. He could turn out to be another, more athletic Cuttino Mobley, a diamond in the rough. At least, he could bring some energy to the table and a spring off the bench.

    I would take Matt Barnes from UCLA with that pick!
    He plays great defense he can guard 2,3. We need
    defensive players offense is not needed unless it a post player

    Agree on Casey Jakes.

    I'd also love to see Rod Grizzard, Jamal Sampson, Freddie Jones, or Savovic drop.

    Barnes, especially if our first pick is for Stoudamire.

    Get the gang working on Barnes shot and we could wind up with a very good player. Good instincts, great athlete, just needs a more consistent J to be a real player.
