    I guess that debunks someone's theory that they would all possibly stay at Dwight's crib.

    I'm pretty certain now that unless Morey can get an all-star PF before the season, that Terrance Jones will start at PF. He has really good height, strength and athleticism. I think he will be more of a mid-range shooter but go after threes if left open. Also, I'm confident this team will gel together very quickly.

    I like that Lin said Casspi was shooting the ball really well. With him getting better looks in Houston and possibly playing the stretch 4 at times, I'm hopeful he can be a bit of a wildcard this season.

    I honestly don't remember this many players getting together for an off-site meeting like this. Usually guys come in early and practice at the team facility in September but July in another city altogether is special.

    I think this a harbinger of a special season for Houston.

    Great to hear T-Jones has improved by leaps and bounds!

    If he can play solid minutes at the 4, we are set.

    It's too premature to say that. It's encouraging that he is playing better.

    He already showed in the Dleauge and in part of the season that he is a weak side shot blocker and solid rebounder. And that he can knock down the occasional jumper.

    That's more like S.P.O.M.I.R.T.O.

    Nevertheless, I love the emphasis on developing chemistry
