http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/sports/4080068.html By FRAN BLINEBURY Copyright 2006 Houston Chronicle Last season they got a brief look. This summer they've had their eyes opened. Liking what they've seen, the Rockets signed point guard John Lucas III to a three-year contract on Friday. "We had him with us for a 10-day contract and then a little longer and liked what we saw in John," said Rockets general manager Carroll Dawson. "Then he played for us in the summer league and showed tremendous progress. We think he has a future in the NBA." The former Oklahoma State star, who attended Bellaire High School, averaged just over eight minutes in only 13 games with the Rockets in the 2005-06 season and struggled at times to fit in, especially with his shooting. But when Lucas joined the Rockets' entry in the Las Vegas Summer League earlier this month, he was a heady, confident player who could get — and make — his own shots. He also distributed the ball well, averaging 23.4 points and 7.6 assists in leading the Rockets to a 5-0 record. Following his Las Vegas stint, Lucas drew interest from at least a half-dozen NBA clubs. But his emotional ties and the focus of his interest were always in his hometown. The Rockets also went a step further than other interested clubs, who wanted to sign him to a two-year contract. They used money they had left over in their mid-year exception to give him a slightly higher salary in his first season and then made the deal for three years total. "We like John and we see him as a project," said Dawson. "For that reason, we wanted to be able to keep him for a third year." 所以我們正式和JLIII簽下一筆三年的合約了，雖然合約內容沒公布，但是由於是三年的合約，因此不是底薪，預計會使用到一部份的中產。所以JVG的shopping list上的三個pg已經有了，會丟三分線的pf也找到了，接下來還有什麼交易呢？ -- 你不能決定生命的長度，但是你可以控制它的寬度 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 61.217.30.223
