    Based on what I have seen of him, I am not even remotely excited he will suit up as a rocket. However, his game might level up, due to the motivation of being signed by an NBA team.

    size ain't everything. bucks got a team full of 7 footers, yet they can barley make the play-offs.

    Another morey move. Needs to build up every single nugget he can to pull off his 1 year in the works trade or bust scenarios like Pau Gasol.

    man, he did not impress me at all when he played here in Manila.

    I mean, Morey!!! head-scratcher, when our need is for someone who can shoot the three-ball or a giant in the post

    Maybe there is something about this kid that makes Morey think he could play the 3. That would be a good reason to give him a shot. But there is almost no film on this kid. I watched most of game 2 of the PFB finals of 2010 and nothing really impressed me considering how weak that league is. Still that was 2 years ago maybe he has improved. I am sure Morey sees something to give him a longer look. Not sure what it is.
