First of all i have to say ive been a Rocket Fan since Sir.Charles went to the Rockets. And since he retired this is my team for the rest of my life. Second i have to admit that lately its been hard been a Rocket Fan. But now with our new international Chinese Center i personally see good things coMING. My question is does anyone know who we play in the first game of the Season. And who is going to cover Mr.Ming? I beleive Ming is going to dominate in his first season hes just to dam good not too there are no Centers in the NBA that could step up to him except Shaq. I predict Rookie of the Year easy if not All-Star game player. I also predict that we make it to the Western Conference Finals Easy too. We have too good of a team not to do so. Just imagine the upgrade we have done from Cato to Ming it could mean 15 extra points 6 extra boards and legitimate interior Defense. Our bench got stronger because Cato is on it hes not a good starter but as a bench player hes adequite. Lets just look at our starting 5 and smile because Rocket Fans we could do so now, now we dont have to be intimidated by no team or feel anger at others starting 5. Luck is on our side if not why did the little ball come up with the Rockets color out of 2,000? Starting 5: 1)Steve Francis - Best PG after Jason Kidd for me 2)Cutino Mobeley- i dont care if hes a hogger or not could hit 35 3)Griffin- if he starts very bright future could blow out now 4)Mo Taylor-best pf shooter in the game no D but wont show that much with ming and griff there 5)MING- BEST PLAYER WERE GOING TO HAVE IN THE FUTURE RIGHT NOW SECOND BEST HES GOING TO TAKE US OVER THE TOP MAYBE SHOULD HOG THE BALL A LITTLE MORE BUT HELL LEARN FAST.
The first game of the season is at Indiana. Ming will be matched up against either Brad Miller, or Jermaine O'neal. Here is the schedule: http://www.nba.com/rockets/schedule/
Yes so he wont be intimidated that much with Jermaine Oneal he already played him against the U.S. i dont think he could gaurd Ming. And Brad Miller well lets just say this will be a breath for Ming !
I don't think Yao will be intimidated by anyone, maybe just in awe of them. His first time around the league, he'll be like "Wow" in the 1st quarter playing against people he's grown up watching, then after he out of that "Starstruck" phase, look out
I like this we havent been this hyped since..................................................... PIPPEN, j/k
