    Is it just me or have they altered the shoulder sleeves? Looks like they go straight down, its not edged anymore.

    Been to a few basketball message boards. Seems like the trendy thing to say is the Rockets only moderately improved and aren't serious contenders. They're also saying Rockets bench stayed the same/got worse...do they not realize we still have Asik who is a starting caliber legit big man?

    Ignore them. They are just judging on names on paper. Team chemistry is so important (as shown by the Lakers debacle). The fact that we are starting training together this early bodes well for our team chemistry and player work ethic.

    The way I see it. Just by the growth of our young players we should add another 5 wins this season. Add to that another 8 wins for the signing of a superstar in Dwight who fits our teams needs perfectly. That brings us to 59 wins which would've been good for 2nd place in the west behind OKC last season.

    It's just that his shoulders are that big.

    You mean the thing that protects him from injury?

    So anyone know why Dwight credited Bev for being part of the recruiting team? Did they know each other personally before this or was it because Bev gave up his jersey number?

    No wonder Dwight had such a hard time with Yao. Look at the size difference!
