    but if we move tmac to sg, swift to sf, and jh to pf.. we'd be set against miami..

    good thing they're in the east. the only way we'd face them is if we meet in the finals, and well....that would be one hell of a series.

    Has the walker trade/signing gone through or is that speculation?

    As a die hard, I naturally say we'd kick their a** to Timbuktoo. :D Would be a very good game to watch. Next years Finals perhaps (when Houston beats another Shaq lead team from Florida)?

    I agree. That would be an awesome finals match up. Good thing I just got my season tickets. :D

    We are all Rocket fans, but come on. You need a little dose of realism

    This is so wrong. Posey will be starting, haslem goes to the bench.

    YAO = SHAQ
    STRO = WALKER
    TMAC >> POSEY
    WES <<< WADE
    sura < JWILL

    advantage: heat

    DEKE > ZO
    JHO > haslem
    bowen = butler
    JB > ??
    james > ??

    advantage: rockets

    coaching: even


    we are not far off, but they will beat us. just because they have a killer starting 5 doesn't prove anything yet. walker and Jwill are cancers. they have no bench. if we are able to pick up buckner or payton we will only be a piece away from what they are now. except we have a bench.

    Well, if Yao does have a break-out season, 21/10 is not unrealistic, which is pretty close to Shaq's stats last season. Since Shaq is on the downside of his career, it is not inconceivable that Yao>Shaq this coming season.

    Yao>Shaq: maybe, maybe not (Yao is on the upside, Shaq is on the downside)
    Swift>Haslm: maybe, maybe not
    Tmac>Walker: definetely.

    So what is to laugh about?

    It should be...
    Yao > Doleac
    Swift > Haslem
    T-Mac > Walker

    Because by the time Rockets play Heat, Shaq will already on be injured list :D

    Head will shut down Wade
    Tmac won't be shut down
    Stro will shut down walker
    and Yao and Deke will shut down Shaq




    :D :p

    Altough the heat are great atlentwise, i see alot of problems with walker, he is a ball hog. Talenrwise the heat are much better then we are. but chemistry can be a problem for them.

    Shouldn't the Nets be considered the East favorites?

    Nenad had a very good year and is bulking up (or so I hear) and their 1-4 are as good as anyone in the league (Kidd,VC,RJ,Raheem).
