Does not drafting Clyde Drexler and settling for Rodney McCray still bother you?

Battier's defense, when he's on, is better than watching a player go for 50. He had journalists all over the nation writing articles on how face guarding was illegal. You need shane to win.

 

My great grandparents missed that memo...

I don't quite have time for creating and debating a D&D thread right now, maybe later.

 

You realize if we had drafted Clyde we wouldn't have gotten the 1st pick in the next draft meaning no Hakeem.

Just saying.

 

this is awesome!

this thread is a secret historical lesson!

 

Please explain this again.

 

this would carry a lot more weight if he had helped get this team out of the first round, like he was supposed to do.

this team hasn't had a problem winning in the regular season. the selling point of the trade was that shane provided immediate help that this team needed to advance.

 

Oooh, looks like somebody's been peeking!

Echidna
(Spiny Anteater)
Possibly Endangered

Scientific Name: Tachyglossus aculeatus
Class: Animals with Milk Glands (Mammalia)
Subclass: Earliest Mammals (Prototheria)
Order: One-Holed Mammals (Monotremata)
Family: Tachyglossidae.

The Name "echidna": "Echidna" derives from the Latin word for "viper," probably because of the snake-like tongue the echidna uses to lick up the insects it eats.

Located: Australia, Tasmania, southern New Guinea

Habitat: Terrestrial. The echidna (which is also called a spiny anteater) lives among rocks and in hollow logs. Even though it doesn't dig its own tunnels, when an echidna needs to escape an enemy, it can quickly burrow straight down into the soil.

Description: The echidna has a small tail and a narrow beak. (Can you tell which end is which in the picture at the top of this page?) There are short-beaked echidnas and long-beaked echidnas. The mouth is toothless and very tiny. The body is heavy and round. Everywhere except the belly, it is covered with coarse hairs and short, pointy spines. (They're very different than the spines on a porcupine!) Each foot has five toes with strong claws. On each hind foot there is an extra long, curved claw on the second toe; the echidna uses this claw to clean between its spines. Males grow to about 13½ to 17½ inches in length and weigh about 6½ to 14½ pounds. Females are somewhat smaller.

Behavior: The spiny anteater is an nocturnal animal. He becomes active at twilight and spends the rest of the night digging out ants and termites which he pulls in with his long, sticky tongue. His vision is weak, but he has a strong sense of smell and sharp hearing. The echidna can go without food for long periods of time. When threatened, the echidna can quickly roll into a prickly ball for protection.

Reproduction: The female echidna normally lays one egg, although it can occasionally lay two or even three. She keeps the egg warm for about ten days in a temporary pouch on her abdomen. When the baby echidna hatches, it begins suckling milk inside the pouch, where it will live until its spines begin to appear. At that point, the mother puts her baby in a sheltered place and goes about her business. She returns to suckle the baby every day for three months, when it is old enough to find food on its own.

 

part of the problem is that the older the trade gets, the more obvious it becomes that it was a bad deal. it's probably going to get worse too.

90% of the threads on here are about the past. the "what was it like to watch olajuwon?" thread has been one of the most popular. I don't see you whining about that one....

let people post about what they want to post about. you obviously have an opinion about the trade because you've posted about it. if you're not interested in the past, then just stay out of those threads.

 

I'm guessing 50% of the people don't know about Rodney McCray so they get frustrated and think you're arrogant and a know it all.

don't let them worry you, cause this is what it sounds like when doves cry!

 

This is a FIVE STAR THREAD that's getting low ratings because none of the people that voted you down EVER had COURTSIDE SEATS at a Rockets game.

TMac, their God, even poses for you. Its just jealousy.

Keep posting these awesome threads!

 

This thread sucks so much it makes Byron Dinkins look like a hall of fame point guard.

 

LOL!
good one Fisher!

 

You are kidding right!!!! Your obvious naive statement about African American Chattel Slavery is ancient history!! So this country which was built on color inferiority is great now??? We just integrated in 1965??????? That was only 42 yrs ago!!! That is not even a normal human lifetime. Most southern states such as our precious Texas did'nt even push the issue until the late 80's and you still have places that are silently still integrated. But non the less.... I'm off my soap box! I also believe that the Mccray Drexler Debacle is no longer affecting the franchise, but many others have definitely cursed this team! Examples.....Richard Jefferson, Rudy Gay, both similar players and both are what we need now! Funny

 

This thread sucks so hard it would lose a free throw shooting contest to Adrian Caldwell .

 

you're ISO-ing the newbs cause they don't know such names Fisher.
use names that they know like Chuck Hayes.
