    I read where there is not much room in the rotation for OT. Would he be a good fit back here for a year or so? I missed him when he was traded.

    One big difference TB3-- Otis was in the league last year. I saw him play in some of the playoffs and he looks like he can still board and outlet. Isn't that what we want out of our PF?

    Otis was my favorite Rocket(hence my UserName) because he did the dirty work, went to war on the boards and never complained. But, I think he and Rudy are on the outs. I don't think Rudy would bring him back for any reason.
