    He's a KEEPER!!!

    Catino looks pretty bad.

    Only the 1st game, I know ... but I'm impressed.

    Braggs has a knack for inside positioning and rebounding.

    Plus he seems to run the floor well for a big body.

    Just about to start a thread about Braggs. The guy is a good hard-nosed banger. I've been hoping for the Rockets to draft James Thomas from Texas with a late first or early second round pick, but I think that Braggs can do almost as good a job as the banger off the bench.

    I spelled Cuttino like that on purpose ... seriously, for real. :rolleyes:

    Good ol' Budweiser.

    :D

    Hey, Mobley ended up having alot of points, but after it was already a blowout. His game did not impress me when it was sorta close.

    I've always liked him, but I'm beginning to believe you guys, in that he must go.


    Like I said, I was impressed, but twasn't a good night for Poochie & Cuttino.


    Good job, Cato!!!

    True, he had a good 4th, but I'm judging him on the first 3 quarters of play ... just because the law says I can.

    Steve looked comfortable out there, & Cuttino didn't, for the most part.

    I think what people are referring to is his 6-16 shots to get that 21.

    In the 3rd, he was 4-14, or something bad like that.

    Guys, Don't get too carried away. Torray Braggs is a nice player, but it is way too early to put an evaluation on the guy. The last time we jumped too fast we signed Cato, who is doing a good job now but not for awhile, and we signed Mo Taylor, who is coming along better. DON'T JUMP THE GUN WITH BRAGGS, come on, it was the Nuggets for crying out loud...

    True.

    It was just the Nuggets, but hey man, the Nuggets are in the NBA.



    We'll only win win 40-some times this year, let us have our fun. ;)

    I like Braggs a lot, he is a hustler on the glass and on defense.

    I like Braggs. Solid big man for limited minutes.

    check this out.

    if he keeps playing like this heres comes a giddy Cd with a Cato like contract offer and then he'll be known as Toray Braggs-to-Riches.

    lame...i know.

    Braggs was a "Pit Bull" out there going after those rebounds! Man he looks strong.

    The lineup in the fourth quarter with Cato-Braggs-Jackson was a monster lineup in terms of hustle and rebounding!

    Braggs kind of reminds me of Kenny Thomas. Hustles all over the court. Plays solid defense. He was chasing down every loose ball. He's better than I expected him to be.
