    You think about how great this team would be with a 04-05 Tracy and a 06-07 Yao before he got injured. I think about it all the time we would be a dynasty in the making and maybe the greatest team ever.

    I had a dream about it. But when I woke up it felt more like a nightmare.

    I think 08-09 Yao + 04-05 T-Mac would dominate.

    I love the guys and we undoubtedly would have become a strong team with McGrady and Yao at their peak,but you are being much too overly optimistic. I think we could have a true contender for a NBA title,but it's very hard to predict that if we could even win one of them and absolutely impossible to even think that they could be the best team ever. I don't know how old you are but there have been far better teams than the hypothetical one you are proposing.

    The 94-95 Rockets would have beaten them for sure IMO,and possibly even the 93-94 Rockets.

    I think we win a title for sure who this year could beat us with Tracy and Yao at their peak and the role players we have now.

    94-95 Rockets would have been great to watch, but I think they could have beating the 93-94 team.

    Yao/Andersen/Hayes
    Scola/Landry/Hayes
    Ariza/Battier
    McGrady/Budinger
    Brooks/Lowry

    Thats a pretty beast lineup. Barring health(I hate saying that :mad: ), the only question mark is backup center.

    Dear T-Mac&Yao=RING,

    If you search for tenderness it isn't hard to find.
    You can have the love you need to live.
    But if you look for truthfulness, you might just as well be blind.
    It always seems to be so hard to give.

    Honesty is such a lonely word, T-Mac&Yao=RING
    Everyone is so untrue.
    Honesty is hardly ever heard.
    And mostly what I need from you, T-Mac&Yao=RING.

    the 2005 team was the best we have been since the champ years.

    the dallas thing was a major fluke

    "There was once a dream that was ROCKETS CHAMPIONSHIPS with YAO AND TRACY. You could only whisper it. Anything more than a whisper and it would vanish... it was so fragile. And I fear that it will not survive the winter. "
