    A front court of Griffin, Cato, and Ming would form the "Triple Towers". Imagine that. Teams would not be able to shoot inside of 10 feet.

    Shortest back court with the tallest front court.

    I've been thinking of it and I like this idea better:

    Move up in the draft from 15 and pick Tsika. Our future is then Ming at C, Griffen at one forward spot, and Tsika at the other forward spot. A 7-5 guy, a 6-10 guy, and a 7-0 guy. With the speed in our backcourt that would dominate if they could learn how to play effective team defense.

    Our backcourt speed is absolutely useless in our current offense. They only use it after they have slowed the game down and dribbled for 15 seconds, then on the first step when they try to drive into the heart of the defense.

    I think we should call it Twin and half towers because Cato doesn't deserve to be a called a tower.

    very funny,but why would cato even start in this lineup? he cant defend, he cant play offense. The rockets should just ride out his contract and hope he might become effective eventually.
