    NOW IS THE TIME FOR CATO!!!! As an article mentioned a while back, Cato should be played in heavy rotation. This will allow him to either look stupid (in front of his ladies), or motivate him to work harder to produce. With our talent at the 1-4, all we need from a center is blocks, rebounds and some easy slam dunks. Cato can do this, sh**t Carlos Rogers could do this (CD resign Carlos)!!

    I think the ROCKETS are partly to blame for Cato's development. Have they tried to hire Kareem, Walt or Moses (etc....) to come tutor the Kid? Have they hired a Personal Trainer to work on his conditioning in the offseason? (before he looks like Vin Baker :D ) Have they taken him to a Psychiatrist? :confused: Have they thought of putting glue on his fingers, so he can rebound? You would think for the 20 zillion dollars they have invested into CATO, they would be more assertive with ways to improve A NIGHTMARE SITUATION. If Rudy is the great coach, we think he is, why is he not helping CATO develop. Are the Rockets plan, to put him on the pine for the next 5-6 years?

    I was originally on the Mark Jackson bandwagon (and still am) if the price is fair? But if we could survive with Cato for one last year, then next season we will have enough cap space to sign Raef (or whoever?). I know its been mentioned that Rudy liked playing Taylor & Thomas at the 4 & 5 last season, so one of them can backup Cato. As far as the cap space , DO NOT GIVE 7 million + to Anderson & Moochie. That money could of been given to Hakeem!! :) and try to trade CATO to chicago for Brad Miller?
