Don't know if anyone else got Kenny's Smith comment, that the Rockets have surrounded Yao with a bunch of Pitbulls that are tough and will not back down: Artest, Hayes, Battier, Scola, Lowry, and Landry. I thought that was a cool thing to say.
It's interesting because none of those guys were here a few seasons ago, and we used to say how we were soft and lacked toughness. We lacked solid power forwards back then. And we were worried about the point guard position. Oh, how things have changed for the better But yeah, gotta admire the hardworking unit we have here. It's quite incredible to watch.
Chuck was here a few seasons ago! He, Yao and Deke (well McGrady too I guess we will count him) are the only holdovers from 2005. Everyone else on our squad has been added since. But I agree with them. Those are the guys you want to battle with you because you know they are giving it their all and they aren't afraid of anyone.
