NO! WE NEED OUR CREAMPUFF MAN! Actually, I wish we could keep Willis. I think he may have had some impact on the team last year. (or maybe not.) Too bad it doesn't look like we'll keep him.
When did they drop him? Yes, bring him back. Willis is a player!!! He can always give you 10 rebounds and a lot of offensive rebounds. Plus, he's the best workout partner for Yao; so he can buildup his upper body.
If you go to the Clutchcity homepage, Clutch has an article about him. Basically, it says Willis will play next year, but probably not with the Rockets. I would read it, if I were you.
If Willis came back here he would get a total of 0 min. I think Willis is still a servicable backup but with both Cato and Ming there are no minutes for him.
Last thing we need is Kevin "Butterfingers" Willis. I really think Willis puts vaseline on his fingers before every game. How else do you explain why he cant catch a ball To those new members, I would like to remind you that Kevin Willis was the biggest reason why the Rockets lost to the Jazz in the 1997 West Finals. Clutch's Game 2 recap of that series says it all. Please get over this guy, he has not done that much for the Rockets like many think he has.
Ok, he may not be that good, but I think he better than *gasp* Collier. I'm ok with not resigning him, but I think he'd be an ok backup and mentor. I wouldn't expect much. All that said, I predict Collier will step up and prove me wrong. He will score 20ppg......never mind...forget I said that.
the only reason i would want willis back is to help mold yao into a gym rat like himself. maybe the rockets should offer him a player/coach position.
Willis was a very good player, but he's on decline. Last year he couldn't catch the ball, didn't rebound a lot. This year he'll be even worse.
Sorry- Bad move there is no place in our young team. They must develop their chemistry with the players, who are going to be here a long time. The only older player we could consider is Hakeem and that would be only to honor him.
I'd MUCH rather have Kevin Willis than Dream Kevin's value on the court has diminished, but he's still a great weightroom/lockerroom guy I love Hakeem, but he's spoiled... he complained when he lost his position to Eric Montross last year We don't need to honor Dream by benching him all season, disrupting team chemistry, and taking on his horrible contract Eric Montross... egh! RETIRE
I dont think Dream wants our Honor. Besides this is a business you dont throw a million dollars at someone just to honor them, We must make wise investments with our money, and throwing a one million dollar + retirment party is not good business!
