    I wouldn't mind seeing those two out on the court together.

    Truth be told, after years of mediocrity and standing in quicksand, I'm just excited to see new, young blood making up almost the entire roster. It's going to be a blast watching these young guys carve/expand their place in the league. I don't expect more than 30 wins (at best) if a major move isn't made but at least the team is truly rebuilding and will do so with some hungry, exciting players.

    I actually think that Donatas is the overwhelming favorite to start at the Power Forward position alongside Asik.

    I'm Euro and I agree. Don't put Euros in the same category as your white college players, or you'll end up drafting Manu and Dragic in the 2nd round again.

    On a serious note, most Euros don't really think of themselves in racial terms (since most countries don't have significant racial variety). It's more about nationalities here.

    I'm much more intrigued by Greg Monroe - Drummond combo.
    In essence, it's quite similar to Donatas-Asik idea. Just much more talented.

    Just have to hope that McHale's man-crush on Patterson doesn't continue. Don't get me wrong, I like Patterson as a player and do believe he'll have a bounce back year.

    But playing him at the 5 is just a bad move, he was way to undersized and overmatched last season. I'm sure given a boost back to his athleticism wouldn't hurt his cause at the 5 but last year was a huge mistake trying him at the center spot.

    And no one is amused by your threads. :rolleyes:

    "We could use Lebron, but we don't need him."

    "Hill should start and we've found our next center for the next 5-6 years."

    "Superstar Kevin Martin"

    "Starting Thabeet"

    "Hill, Thabeet, and Smith can hold down the five spot"

    "Samuel Dalembert will change the Rockets fortune"

    "Can Royce White be LeBron?"

    "Can Lamb be Gay?"

    "Terrence Jones a lesser Dwight Howard"

    Are you done yet?

    Yeah, and the Scalabrine thread is just as stupid as this one.

    Hooray!

    THIS^^^

    Your threads have become a complete nuisance to the board, yet like a car wreck I can't help myself from looking at them. I know going into them that they will make ZERO sense, they will compare a rookie to a sure fire hall of famer, and MOST IMPORTANTLY they will have TONS of AWESOME comments.

    So here's to you Badlee KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!! You sure know how to make me "LOL"

    What other Twin Towers in Houston could he be referring to? Then again, knowing him he was talking about Hill and Thabeet.
