    I for one would have enjoyed watching Steve and Cat leave it all on the court than Mclazy half step it. The years would have been more enjoyable, playoffs or not.

    Yao would have never gotten injured, since they never passed him the ball.

    We'd suck beyond all belief.
    Tracy + Yao + injuries is still better than healthy Mobley + Francis.

    We would have had better playoff success than with TMac.

    They would have got married and adopted a couple of kids. It was close to happening (allegedly) but to much pressure from the outside and how the NBA would perceive its first openly gay couple.

    You mean a healthy Mobley + Francis + Yao.

    Yao would never leave under any scenario.

    Last season of Steve/Cat/Yao

    45-37, Finished 5th in NBA Midwest Division (Schedule and Results)
    Coach: Jeff Van Gundy (45-37)

    Playoffs:
    Lost NBA Western Conference First Round (4-1) versus Los Angeles Lakers

    The Cat would do a 360 move, and then throw up a 3

    If JVG never was the coach of the rockets, then both could never left, but Tmac was still better than those two, we would not have a better result with Steve and Cuttino although they both played very hard.

    We would've eventually traded for Lamar Odom, and it would've been "over."

    We would have gotten out of the 1st round much sooner.
    We would have been no worse than the MeMac era

    I don't understand the poll options. You say If Steve and Cuttino never left ... and then three of the option have one or both leaving.
