    As you all may know, the Rockets traded Stro and Gay for Shane Battier.

    As fans, we should thank Stro for taking less money to sign here, trying to get used to a new team/players, and for throwing down some great highlight dunks.

    Good luck in Memphis, Stro!

    Please Stro throw down some nasty facials on Yao and Howard, feel free to hurt howard, but go easy on Yao.

    Good luck backing up Gasol again, Stro. And please don't find your heart now that you're gone.

    I hope Stro will do better back in Memphis. He was effective when Gasol was injured and had some 20 point games even though his overall averages were similar to what he had with us.

    their had to be a reason why all of the Swift jerseys were $10 BEFORE the draft started at the Toyota Center :(

    btw, Swift is still the man to me. I really hope that he isn't included and the Chronicle is just BSing with. I wish that tommorrow they made a mistake and meant Juwon and couldn't announce it because Juwon was at the Draft party.....

    man, you by yourself would have gotten 10 and 5 for us. gay would have added atLEAST 6 and 3. combine that together and it would be 16 and 8. way more than what battie is gonna give us. i hope you sacrifice a TO and just throw a "misplaced" pass right a jvg's head when hes not looking

    get out of here you underachiever. You had your chance with all those injuries and you did NOTHING. I remember you driving the open the lane and jamming hi-lite reel dunks. Who cares. Get out you underachiever.

    I'm thinking Stro is part of another deal. Him and Fratello weren't on good terms if I'm not mistaken...

    The dude came here for less money, for that I commend him. (I became a fan). Oh, and because of his nasty dunks. First time I saw him was when he had that killer facial on YAO. Man that was so awesome.

    Anyways, hope you do well in Grizz town...but suck when you play us.

    I think he's going to break out from his JVG shell and go AWOL in the Grizzlie's offense.

    Thanks for the memory, Stro. Whatever you do, please don't decide to wake up and start playing like a man next year.
