The line up that will turn the rocks to an ass kicking contender

If Milwalkee is shopping Robinson, I would definately look to participate. He is an excellent offensive and rebounding SF, and we can have Shandon play take the quicker offensive minded 3s that we might face. He is also 27 (some good years left but not young) so I wouldn't be inclined to trade the farm for him like I might for McGrady or Abdur-Rahim though.

If it was an offer based on the core of Walt, Cato + swapping first rounders I would have to consider it. I doubt Milwalkee would, but stranger things have happened.


------------------

 

I'm not in a hurry to trade Cato, unless we're sure we're getting a solid big man in return. A tenacious rebounder/post threat down low. Of course, if an oppurtunity at Reef (I sure have been on his side lately, hehe) who's 24 years old, and is already averaging 20 ppg, and 10 rpg, and has a complete game, I'd have to think hard NOT to do it.

Etan Thomas/TMass at PF? Yikes.

What I'm saying, is that odds of Duncan signing a 1 year contract, then wanting to sign here the next year, are not high. Dream is almost gone, and I don't want to be left with a front court in shambles-like it was this year.

Anyone care to join in my Olumide Oyededji bandwagon?

"Let me get this straight .... we pay him $4.5 million dollars a year to play 82 games right? And, the other guy we pay $6 or $7 Million a year to stop the other team from scoring and maybe to score once in a while too!" ......... Popeye's darling sweetpea attempting to figure out WizBang and CaveInTo's role on the Rockets.

 

now why in the world would we want Glenn Robinson?? AND for all those players?? isn't Robinson a guard? he doesn't even play good D at all. Shandon Anderson's starting spot would be stolen, Mobley definately will be gone. i certainly wouldnt make this deal!

Dream's Team!

 

Why would anyone who watched any Rockets games this year even consider TMass in their potential line up for next year. He was a no show FOR THE SAEASON! Now, there is a lot of concern at the PF position, and a lot of arguing over Kenny and Carlos, etc. But the guy from "My Left Foot" would have contributed more to the team this past year than TMass.

Popeye, your sig hurts my eyes. Dont make me breakout an eyepoping sig!


I dont think Glenn Robinson is the way to go.

My Physics teacher was wrong. TMass is dead weight.(hahaHAHAHA, I made a funny!)

Not sure if the ROckets could get Duncan for those players. Maybe his bum knee. Will there be an auction For Duncan's messed up ligaments on EBAY? I want a 7 footers knee. I will mount it on the hood of my car. OH YEAH!

Need some more kick assing threads though.

Glen Robinson isn't any more of guard than Kenny Thomas is a guard, in fact Robinson is a rather strong, good rebounding and very offensively skilled small forward. Like I said he wouldn't be the first guy I would target, but if there is a fire sale I would look into acquiring him. It could create a problem with Mobley (if he signs with us, which is a high probability but no guarantee), but we could give all the back up 1 & 2 minutes to him and have Shandon play the back-up 3 (maybe creating 30-35 minutes for Mobes). If you can get a player of Glen Robinson caliber basicallly for Walt + Cato (or KT) + switching picks, you do it, and then figure out what to do down the line.
