    Is it just me that wants to see this guy play or what? We all know that Von Wafer is a gamer, no doubt, and it sucks to see such good player sit on the bench with no playing time when we know he's able to contribute. So that leads to the question. When will we see him or even Steve Francis? :confused:

    Francis is still rehabbing, obviously not until he's healthy, if ever, the last reports imply he may never return.

    when we get injuries or garbage time during a blowout. when did wafer get good? against preseason style of play? he did great. i thought he was fantastic in preseason but we have to be realistic and not based his skill set in one preseason. Regular season is were we have 8-9 player rotation and we are loaded at the 2 and 3 (artest, tmac, barry, and shane)

    As he promised:" I will be back " , I still believe he'll be back and terminate all those who doubt his capability.

    We will never see them, both will be shipped out asap to make room for a 7 footer.

    I want to see Vofer too, if he cannot crack into the rotation now, then it will be harder when Battier back to rotation. In terms of SF3, I don't expect soon
    By the way, can somebody tell Clutch to remove Head's picture from the homepage, I am sick of seeing him everytime I get to this site

    honestly you don't want to see vofer in the reg. season or playoff at all, that just mean one our our guards is down due to injury.


    SF on the other hand, I would like to see because that would limit alston's PT.

    Not gonna happen....I doubt Francis comes back (Though I wish he would) and I doubt Wafer lasts the year.

    last year, i believe we didn't see carl landry until an easy game against the timberwolves. i'm expecting adelman to play von wafer during an easy game against a relatively bad team.

    a bad team? when we play with Thunder, 4th, we had a big lead, and Coach stiil put Yao on the floor,
    i though JVD is a cautions man, and now i found Rick is much more cautions than JVD..... Let ours rookit on the floor, let them know how to act in different situation, let them sit on the bench , you can't never find them good or not....Never let them play until ours start get hurt, BTW, ours bench is not bad. Sometime , i think ours bench guy even play better than start.
    Our big 3 seldom execute the plan coach set

    sad but true :( he should have never opened his mouth saying all he needs is 3-4 weeks. Now he has everyone waiting just 2 see what he can do. I dont want 2 believe it but i think its over. Time to move on we have brooks and Rafer "i need a shot" Alston.

    if francis doesn't see the court again it won't be because he couldn't.

    your right its because he isn't pushing hard enough :( Just imagine what this team can be Rafer had his time and hasn't changed anything. Just imagine what this team can be with Francis starting and Brooks as his back-up. A nice dream that will NEVER COME TRUE :mad: :mad:
