    Francis will lead them.

    Griffin, Mobley and Yao will anchor the team.

    Remember, leading doesn't necessarily mean scoring the
    most points.

    I probably gotta go with Steve, since he is the point guard. Maybe Ming and Griff will get the blocks and some points, and Mobley may get some points, but I think Steve will lead them. Kind of like what David S said. He will be the one deciding if we are champs, or a first-round exit.

    Or maybe not... I'm not psychic...

    or am I? :confused:

    When it was Kareem and Magic winning titles for LA, I guess you'd say that Magic was the leader.

    Kareem, and Worthy also played very signifigant roles. I think Cat, Griffen, and Ming could play those kinds of roles for the Rockets.

    I say Steve, though I think Griff will be a major part of it. I don't think he has the drive as much as Steve or even Cat for that matter. Cat and hopefully Yao will fit the last of the pieces together. It will be an interesting time period starting a little after the new arena's opening.

    Here's to the future!

    I really don't see one guy that will lead to a championship. I do see a team that is destined to win a championship. In a few years I don't think he will have the best stats, but I think the true leader of the team will be: Mobley.

    Man's got the heart of a champion.

    As long as Steve is the PG no one else is going to lead this team. Besides, everyone knows what a sick messed up loco baller he is, and he is just starting to ripen.

    Ming and Francis may be a pretty good one-two punch...

    I see them as the next generation of Shaq / Kobe...

    Ming = batman

    Francis = robin
