look at this lineup... 1)Steve Francis 2)Shandon Anderson 3)Scotti Pippen 4)mo taylor 5)Hakeem olajuwon what do you all think of this ------------------ "And Raul missess the Penalty in the 89th minute of the Euro2000 and Spain is sadend again" by Spanish Fan
Wouldn't have been able to sign Mo if scottie was here. Scottie also wasn't a team player. Compare his and Walt's #'s (especially over the last 20 games) and you will see there was not that much of a drop off. ------------------ "The road to hell is paved with Republicans."
Who would be Hakeem's backup at center? I guess David Robinson, Shaq, Zo, and other dominating post up players would just have a field day. We acquired some good role players out of the trade and some cap space. I'd rather have what we have now. ------------------
Aside from the fact that we would have no cap room for next summer which would mean no Taylor, I'd still much rather have Walt, Cato, and Rogers from a personnel standpoint than Scottie. ------------------ Looking for next year's Dan Langhi?

I am so glad we got rid of Pippen. Not only is his contract unbelievably huge, he would not be part of the young nucleus working for the future and hence useless. I think the reason most of us were excited about Pippen was because of the fact that we would be getting a new "Big Three." Barkley is gone and Olajuwon is a mere shadow of his former self. Why hold on to the past with a guy like Pippen? Even with him in the lineup, I doubt whether we would have a chance for next season. ------------------ Nederland 2002 Qualifying Campaign (Damn those penalties!!!)

Why not just say: Hakeem Jordan Drexler Francis Quitten Mo Shandon Barkley ------------------ In order to be a success in life, you need 2 things: 1. Don't tell everything you know.
Yeah right, Bobo, check this out : Wilt Chamberlain Larry Bird Karl Malone Michael Jordan Magic Johnson Bench : Kevin McHale Oscar Robertson Hakeem Olajuwon Shaquille O'Neal John Stockton Clyde Drexler Charles Barkley Now THAT'S a Rockets team! Man, what if... ------------------ Falk that Mo Fo!!!
How could you dare to put Hakeem on the bench????? Also, Chuck should start over Malone. ------------------
I disagree, there was a large dropoff. Walt's numbers were much better. ------------------ "Stranger things have happened, but none stranger than this" - Commentator after a parachutist landed in the ring of a Holyfield fight
Yeah, but I'm talkin' reality. Be happy I put Hakeem in there instead of Kareem. Doc runs for cover... ------------------ Falk that Mo Fo!!! [This message has been edited by Dr of Dunk (edited August 27, 2000).]

I think Finn is talking about the trade that the Rockets did not do in 84. The one for Jordan and Clyde. I dont think he just came up with that team. That lineup, atleast in theory could have been starting for the Rocks next year. ------------------ Fun Police Says: 1. Stupid threads are not FUN! 2.

yes we could have had mj and clyde all 4 frikkin ralph sampson. of course none of the 3 (mj, clyde, hakeem) would have turned out as good. and mj and clyde are both 2 guards michael could play pg but he wouldnt be as good. we probably would not have drafted mj we would have gotten a 3 or a pg but still i would liked to have them make that deal.
