    I got the same feeling when watching the game.

    I'm not used to seeing Brent Price making 3-pointers for a non-Rockets team.

    I'm not used to seeing Dickerson, Mobe's backcourt partner last season, guarding Mobe.

    I'm not used to seeing Othella making those left-handed hook shots for a team other than the Rox.

    All those brought me so many memories about last season ... but face it, the NBA is business. We all miss them, but we all have to beat them.

    Yea I read a quote where carr said Steve should take a long look in a mirror.
    That's kinda funny coming from a guy who make's a living as a bully.

    I wouldn't mind getting Othella back he is still improving.
    Anything is possible....he may end up in the pajama's once again.

    sometimes when i watch a game this year i get players mixed up. when kenny thomas (who really impressed me with his play, by the way) was in the game last night i would think 'theres othella'....then i had to do a double-take and remind myself. i do the same thing with carlos and pippen!they dont even look alike! i dont know what thats all about!

    Yeah, a good bunch of guys, even the coach - minus Antoine.

    Frankly, I was glad to finally trade Brent even though I like him.

    Now that I think of it, it has been rather stressful as a fan trying to get used to new players even though I like them.

    I really hated to lose Othella who worked so hard and was such a nice guy. Dickerson was a good guy too but he was only here one year and I didn't know him that well.

    I hated to lose Rodrick Rhodes too. Thought we had him back with the Vancouver trade but didn't turn out that way.

    I feel no rivalry with Vancouver - they are just another team we have to beat. Now Portland, as long as they have Pippen, I will feel a strong rivalry.

    I DON'T miss Antoine Carr. My memories of him are basically of a Utah Jazz, and anything he did for us last season was wiped out by that bush whack he gave to Stevie.
