    I can see where you are coMING from. I just heard on 740AM here in Houstonan interview with the Mavs beat writer from a Fort Worth newspaper say...

    " of the 30-35 guys that regularly play at the Fonde rec center( in Houston), 15 of them are better than Ming. Ming is nothing more than a soft jump-shooter who will be called back at anytime to China. He said an Western Conference GM ( he would not name names) said Ming was not even worth a project."

    I am really not surprised that this was coming from a Mavs beat writer.

    He went on to say that JWill is who we should draft and then trade him for whatever. He brought up the Rashard draft stuff...he said you have to go for it to be successful just like the Mavs...he praised Cuban as a genius ...blah,blah,blah

    I am sorry I do not buy it......I have 3 people right here next to me that put on basketball sneakers for a living and play with a medium size ball and shoot it in a round hoopy thing....
    Who indeed just said Ming or not they really do not care as long as they contribute.....

    The truth is out there.....

    Remember Roc all is not well until the last Docket makes its way across the ocean. Its fun to Wade in Sand, but make sure its not quick sand or you'll be in over your head. Prepare for a Electric shock on draft day...

    Dude, I can understand questioning others but it is hard to question the Doc. By the way, doesn't medium sized balls signal the woman's game????

    Finn-I took that as just go big...kinda like, if you make a mistake, make a BIG mistake.

    So, uh, Doc-anything you want to tell us about #15? Maybe visiting a Boston Snackbar?

    I guess we are ok with Ming's NBA elligability but not ok with their money demands.

    Troy,
    I take it you work with the Comets as you travel on the road with them? Well then you are just above being a towel boy over listening shower conversations? I doubt you are high enough to be in these meetings while your lesbi- I mean Comets are practicing.

    I guess this means Francis is not one of those 3 people, since you've maintained that at least Francis does care about the Yao or no Yao issue. Or is this no longer the case and Francis has decided that he won't Vancouver the Rockets if Ming is chosen?

    What are they doing hanging around some geek who's surfing the net?

    I doubt they said, "Hey, let's get together and watch 'Troy' post at ClutchCity."

    Especially if all you're gonna do is brag about knowing them. Can you imagine anything more likely to make them think, "Damn, what a loser!"??

    Stevierebel, let's leave the bigotry at home, OK? Troy, did you even watch the video Clutch gave us? Francis did, and seems to have been excited by Ming after seeing it, according to Doc. I don't recall seeing your opinion on it. Don't have one? Doesn't fit your "inside info" on things? Mmmm? Thanks, Doc, for feeding our insane hunger for ANYTHING, much less what seems to be great news (if I'm "understanding" the cryptic stuff :) ).

    Hi out there.

    This is really Steve Francis. I'm just writing this to let you know that Troy really does know me. Okay. We're friends. I like the guy. I tell him things to say to gauge your opinions. And because of that, I must say that you are all a bunch of jerks.

    Steve.
