Are the Rockets gonna resign this guy? We could use another power forward and Massenberg is a real nice player that has a good offenseive game and nice rebounding skills. ------------------
id rather have pig back then massinjured. Pig has more heart and has good chemistry with the young players.He hustles his butt off. ------------------
Tony is a good bench player and with the history of injuries in Los he would be nice insurance. ------------------ please venture to atheistalliance and rocketsonline I AM SPARTACUS [This message has been edited by DEANBCURTIS (edited July 18, 2000).]
Dean, massenburg insurance? THat guys hurt more than los but yes if healthy im with ya ------------------
I don't know much about Massenburg's career, but I think last year was a fluke as far as his injuries were concerned. The year before he played in 43 of the 50 games. I don't know if the Rockets should resign him or not. I simply haven't seen enough of him to make an informed opinion. If I remember what I heard when he first came in the Francis trade, he is a good defender. He's also not going to demand a lot of touches (same goes for Pig). But Massenburg is capable of putting up decent numbers. He put up a little over 11 ppg during the strike-shortened season in a little more than 26 minutes a game. If he's fully healed, and if he's not too rusty, I wouldn't mind having an eight year veteran on our team -- especially with all the youth we have at the power foward position. ------------------
