What nationality is Moises Alou? Julio Lugo? Octavio Dotel? I've heard Alou's accent but not the other two. I've been curious of this ever since I started watching the Astros. ------------------ The media's Eddie Griffin NBA Draft player profile before he landed in the Rockets hands: What he does: He was second in the nation in blocked shots and fifth in rebounds as a freshman last season; has good shooting range and even had a triple-double. Reminds people of: Antawn Jamison What he would do for his team: He could play either forward spot and runs the floor. He'll give his team a valuble inside scoring threat. The media's review of the Rocket's draft after they got Eddie Griffin: I'd give their draft a B. Sure, Griffin was highly touted but his behavior and attitude can be a chemistry wrecker. Needs to bulk up more. Not exactly NBA-ready. Not the best choice for Houston. It's very sad. The "wonderfully talented prospect" one second, but the moment the media learns he'll be a Houston Rocket, it's criticize-o-rama.
Lugo and Dotel were both born in the Dominican Republic. Alou was born in Atlanta, but his father is Dominican. Here is a link for the Astros 40 man roster. ------------------ T-Pooh and BahDakota went up the hill, to make a bet on a Forward. When it all came down, they were nowhere to be found. Now they should be drawn and quartered.
Thanks. Wow, Dotel's face made me think he was from the US. He's got that All-American baby face. ------------------ Long Live The Catomic Bomb. DON'T TRADE DOTEL!
