    Even though it has only been 2 games so far, we already have the best tandem in the NBA for blocked shots (well GS has one avg the same, but that team sucks:rolleyes: ) . No other team has any two players averaging 6.5 bpg together (Cato - 3.5 and Griffin 3.0).

    I know I know, there is no way that this would be anything close to what the "Twin Towers" were back in the day, but the idea that we have at least 2 players in the top 10 in bpg sure makes you wonder.

    This is of course assuming that Cato plays like this the whole season (doubtful,) but if Cato wants to keep his starting job he just may.

    Anyways, I just wanted to think for at least once that we might turn into an outstanding defensive team. If anything, we will at least be higher in the blocks category.

    Oh and btw, we also have the best duo in scoring as well with 55.5 ppg (Steve 30.0 and Cat 25.5.) But hopefully it won't stay that way. I would rather win by defense than offense.

    OK, over the first 3 games the TRUE twin towers might be Cato and Ming?
