It didn

Wait, what?

I thought we got Darrell Arthur?

[ElPigto]

I'm very confused.

[fatboy11]

This doesn't make sense at all.

[ElPigto]

This doesn't make sense at all.

Nothing new being a Rockets fan on draft day. We've had pretty bad drafts in the past. We have passed on a hell load of good players.

[Fudge]

How the hell did we get Greene from Memphis?

Yeah, every bit confusing.

[artificial]

Tell me Chris dum[COLOR="Black"]ba[/COLOR]ss Wallace didn't just gave away Donte Greene for nothing.

[Raj Da Dodge]

Yea this is confusing, I also thought we got Darrell Arthur, but according to chron.com we got Dante Greene and Joey Dorsey, I don't know, we'll see when its official.

[ElPigto]

So Fatboy, if indeed we did get Greene, what exactly are your feelings on him? What about Dorsey?

[fatboy11]

So....

Houston gets: Joey Dorsey (33rd pick) from Portland and Donte Greene (28th pick) from Memphis

Memphis gets: Darrell Arthur (27th pick) from Portland (via New Orleans)

Portland gets: Nicolas Batum (25th pick) from Houston

Might be a future 2nd rounder or two in there somewhere, but that's what I gather.

Rockets:
IN: Greene, Dorsey, 2ND ROUND PICK 2009 (MEM)
OUT: Batum, 54th pick

Portland:
IN: Batum
OUT: ARTHUR, DORSEY (33TH PICK)

MEMPHIS:
IN: ARTHUR, 54TH PICK
OUT: GREENE, FUTURE 2ND ROUNDER

[fatboy11]

Oh yeah, Memphis gets Leunen.

Can someone educate me on these players we just picked up?

[wTFaMonkey]

DORSEY IS A BEAST!

cant wait

[nba_55]

Can someone educate me on these players we just picked up?

Greene:
Tall, great 3 point shooter and mid range shooter, atheletic, poor ball handling, bad shot selection.

Dorsey:
Dont know... maybe another chuck hayes.
