    Not to be a downer, but does this actually mean he has made the team, or just that he will be with them during camp?

      It just means he'll be with them through training camp. But he has a chance to make the team.

          There's 5 guys I believe that have guaranteed money that are centers/PF's. Jordan is going to have to play above them in order to get one of the 15 roster spots (only 12 dress per game, but 15 are on team, I believe)---there are currently 20 on the "team". Jordan is the closest in height to Yao, and Brad Miller is the other 7'0" center. At a minimum, Jordan is going to play against NBA guys for over a month (as he has already while in Houston) and be able to take that experience to wherever he chooses (continuing in the NBA, the D-League, or Europe). My hope is that Jordan gets on as one of the 15, and then would be one of the 12 when/if Yao gets hurt. It's tough when you are a rookie, but playing vs. Yao on a daily basis has to improve your game. He's arguably the most skilled (not dominant) center in today's game (when healthy).
          The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne. Fire goes before Him, and consumes his foes on every side; His lightning lights up the world; the earth sees and trembles; the mountains melt like wax before the Lord of all the earth. The heavens proclaim His righteousness and all peoples will see His glory.
